Variable reference

[mak_kawa]

Is there a way to refer *directly* to other config's variable?

So far, I think there is a way of indirect reference, and I am using it now.
That is, when set a variable, set it to another config at the same time to sync...like this.
[!SetVariable SomeVariable Value][!SetVariable SomeVariable Value AnotherConfig]

This is applicable enough, but I think somewhat redundant...

No, there is no way to "pull" a value from one skin to another, you have to "push" from one skin to another as you demonstrated.

Hi jsmorley

Thank you for quick clarification. I am now convinced.

If you REALLY worked at it you could get the variables by reading rainmeter's memory and extracting them that way. But in like 99% of use cases just pushing from one skin to another is better than this.

Ah...not badly. As already said, the "push" method is applicable/practical for me, and actually I am using it to grab the condition of other skin config. But...yes, probaly I am fussy about such trivia.

We all can trust in jsmorley's advices at least 110%.
