local font in rainmeter section

[TRSyntax]

hi.

the ini file:

Code: Select all

[Rainmeter]
LocalFont=#LocalFont#

[Variables]
@Include=#SKINSPATH#SDX.Rainmeter\!SDX.BASE\ConfVariables.inc

the inc file:

Code: Select all

[Variables]
FontFace="Consolas"
LocalFont=#SKINSPATH#SDX.Rainmeter\!SDX.BASE\Consola.tff

will this work?? or do i have to include the full path to the font file in each ini? i can't tell since i've got the font installed in my local fonts folder and pretty much every skin and program on my computer uses it :\

sorry if its a stupid question.. its late in norway and i can't find the answer in the introduction..

nobody knows this?

Well there's really no point in asking if something will work. You have nothing to lose by trying it. Once you do, you'll have your answer.

edit: so if i remove it from my local fonts folder alot of prpograms and other skins are going to crash!. therefore i ask instead of try it out myself..

The other programs wouldn't crash, LocalFonts has nothing to do with other programs. What it's for is specifying a font that is in a folder besides the regular Windows Fonts folder. That way you can include a font with a skin and the person who downloads it will not need to install it. The font in that folder is only going to be handled by Rainmeter. If it doesn't work, the worst-case scenario is that it defaults to Arial.

Test it with another font, if that's your concern.
