Hi, so ya, this skin stopped working.
I've been going over it but either i am missing something or a different setting is messing with it - outside of rainmeter.
Any input is appreciated.

The law of averages says what it means; even if you get everything right, you will get something wrong. Therefore; self managing error trapping initiates another set of averages - amongst the errors, some of them will not be errors, instead those instances will appear to be "luck". One cannot complain of the 'appearance' of 'infinite regress of causation', even if it does not have a predictable pattern, only that it requires luck to achieve.

Re: My Little Skin Stopped Working [Idle Time]
Not sure, but as far as I can tell, it does perfectly work. What should it do? Because when I load the skin and let the computer idle, [MeasureIdle] starts to count, [MeasureIdleb] starts to count down (from 1199, according to MaxValue), and [FormatTime] follows [MeasureIdle]. When [MeasureIdle] reaches any of the set levels (59, 900 respectively 1100), the appropriate bangs are executed, and colors are set on the [MeterUsedTime] meter.
Just one remark related to the code: there is no need to redraw all configs when any of the used IfTrueAction / IfFalseAction is executed. That's why instead of the [!Redraw *] bang, you should use [!Redraw]. However this for sure doesn't prevent the skin to work.
So, what is this skin supposed to do and it doesn't do it? What doesn't work?

Re: My Little Skin Stopped Working [Idle Time]
It is supposed to do exactly what you described balala.
Excepting it has stopped on my pc.
I am having some minor technical issues with things like screen saver, so it may be system related.
Thanks for checking it.

Re: My Little Skin Stopped Working [Idle Time]
What kind of issues? I'm wondering what could stop this code working.

Re: My Little Skin Stopped Working [Idle Time]
Hey, I am not sure what it was. After a restart of my PC everything is back to functioning.
I had been tweaking settings, and in one app - qbittorrent - I had ticked do not allow system to sleep when a torrent is active. I had never ticked it before to my memory, but I think it may have been the cause of the glitch. What I did, was go back and untick it, but nothing seemed to change. In my ignorance or what have you, I did not think to restart the pc.
I messed around a lot going between diaplayfusion, system settings and qbit, trying to get things to work. Then, on the displayfusion search a thread came up and the person (in a much older version of qbit) had the same problem. That is when I finally realised a simple restart would need to happen.
After that and all of the settings triple checked, my screen saver and the IdleTime skin are back to functioning.
So that's the story.
