ConfigActive 2.2.1

[balala]

I am however, confused as to whether I need to specify ConfigName as you and SilverAside seem to have different views on this?

To use the IfCondition, indeed don't have to specify the ConfigName, however to get the ConfigActive plugin measure to work, you have to have this option properly defined. So which of us is right, depends on what you want to use the measure to.

[sl23]

It's literally for specifying the Fill Color of the Shape Meter if a config is active or not. Nothing more. So I probably don't need ConfigName do I?

Here's the full config so you can see what I am trying to achieve.

So I probably don't need ConfigName do I?

No, you don't need it.

Here's the full config so you can see what I am trying to achieve.

• The !SetOption bang of the IfFalseAction option of the [mConfig] measure is incorrect. Practically there are less parameters then it should be: [!SetOption Skin1 FillAlpha "Fill Color #Color5#"]. Same for the IfFalseAction2 option.
• Even if this is not an error, however I'd use some variables in the IsActive functions of the IfConditionX options.
• You did use such variables into the IfCondition3 - IfCondition5 options, however those variables are not defined.

[sl23]

I understand the IfConditions aren't correct but the first IfTrueAction is, isn't it? But it doesn't work. Its not changing the Fill Color at all.

Until I know that works, I can't move on to the rest of it and changing it to use variables for the config's.

The IfConditions 3 to 5 are just copy and pasted from SilverAzide's welcome code in his gadget suite so I knew how to format it. But I just can't seem to get it working for some reason. That's why there are no variables defined for them.

I'm trying to get the code working before using variables. There's little point changing all 5 Conditions if they don't work. One step at a time.

[balala]

I understand the IfConditions aren't correct but the first IfTrueAction is, isn't it? But it doesn't work. Its not changing the Fill Color at all.

But yes, it does work, but this kind of skins which has to check periodically if another skin is activated, have to not have the Update set to Update=-1 ([Rainmeter] section), as your skin, because if anytime later than the refresh / activation of this skin, the checked skin is activated or deactivated, this one won't follow this modified status until next refresh. So replace the Update=-1 with the default Update=1000. This fixes the mentioned issue.

[sl23]

Ah, that fixed it! Thanks very much balala

[balala]

Ah, that fixed it! Thanks very much balala

Alright, I'm glad. However take care when are you using the Update=-1 option, because even if in some cases it can reduce resource usage, other times it can mess many things.

[sl23]

Yeah I can see that now. Thank you for the tip

[balala]

Yeah I can see that now. Thank you for the tip

[CodeCode]

I am attempting to use the Type=Count with a measure like this:

Code: Select all

[ConfigActive]
Measure=Plugin
Plugin=ConfigActive
Type=Count
DynamicVariables=1

When assigning the measure with a text meter, nothing is being returned.

When I use a section variable [ConfigActive:] it returns the %1 literally.

Not sure what I am missing?
