Repeat function?

[ItsJustRyan]

Hi! I'm back again lmao.

I used to have sliders not only for the volume, but fr brightness. the problem with this brightness plugin is that i dont know how to make it go up or down in 5s. I didnt mind in the past because i made it so i can click where the bar to set it to that value, but i dont know how to here. How can i make it do the function 5 times? Or is there another way? Also if possible how would i have it so i can click some place on the skin and have it set to that angle?

Thanks in advance!

I don't have and won't use that screen brightness plugin, but in general...

The idea is to use !SetVariable some number of times, with a delay in between each increment, to either add or subtract from the value of the variable. Then you can use that variable dynamically anywhere you need it, to control pretty much anything you want.


Let me know if you have any questions, I can explain as much or as little as you need.

Here is another example, that explicitly controls a plugin measure, rather than using a variable:

Code: Select all

[Rainmeter]

[Variables]
U=[!UpdateMeasure MeasureInc][!UpdateMeasure MeasureWin7Audio][!UpdateMeter *][!Redraw]

[MeasureWin7Audio]

Plugin=Win7AudioPlugin

[MeasureInc]
Measure=Plugin
Plugin=ActionTimer
ActionList1=Repeat AddTo, #Delay#, #NumOfTimes#
AddTo=[!CommandMeasure MeasureWin7Audio "ChangeVolume +1"]#U#
ActionList2=Repeat SubFrom, #Delay#, #NumOfTimes#
SubFrom=[!CommandMeasure MeasureWin7Audio "ChangeVolume -1"]#U#
DynamicVariables=1
