LeftMouseUpAction=[!SetVariable Current "(#Current#+1)"][!WriteKeyValue Variables Current "(#Current#+1)"][!UpdateMeter *][!Redraw]What you need to do when you set the new value of the bars on a click, is to also use !WriteKeyValue to permanently write that value to the [Variables] section.GioRgSaVv wrote:No no no, not this
Sorry, I wasn't clear enough, what I was trying to say is to fill the bar by clicking a button.
But thanks a lot for the code! I will save that for later, maybe it will be useful in the future
I actually made it tho.
It is now complete, but I have only one little problem... is it possible not to refresh a skin even after when I click the "refresh all" button from rainmeter application?
I want to keep on tracking how many times I do something, like daily goals, but if I refresh all skins this will also refresh, obviously, so it will reset.
I bet I will need to use some scripts program in order to achieve that, right? :/

Yes, my example was the most generic of generic examples. I would also suggest that you need some kind of "reset" button on this. Having to hit minus repeatedly in order to start over didn't test well with the focus group in the Rainmeter Usability Lab.eclectic-tech wrote: EDIT: JSMorley beat me again, but I would consider using the Clamp function so you stay within the range of possible bars.
Yes, using this scheme, a third button would be needed to reset...jsmorley wrote:Yes, my example was the most generic of generic examples.

Image and Bar meters are for completely different things. But why do you find it so hard? I think it isn't. jsmorley gave you a sample code.GioRgSaVv wrote:Ah it's actually a lot harder than I thought :/
In the end I just made it with... images and not as a bar meter
