A rather simple question, but, how do I use shape meter instead of bar in case of 2 plugins - win7audio and nowplaying.
The Static Width and Height and X and Y can be set, but I wanted the Width to change as per the Volume Changes in Media Player/System.
How can achieve this?

It can easily be done, by adding those Shape meters. For instance add the following two meters ([MeterVolume] and [MeterVolumeMP]) right after [MinVolume] and [MinVolumeMP] accordingly:
Note the details:
The total width of both newly added meters ([MeterVolume] and [MeterVolumeMP]) is the same as the total width of the existing bar meters. Their actual / visible width is controlled by the third parameter of the two Shape options (([MinVolume:W]*[MeasureVolume:]/[MeasureVolume:MaxValue]) and ([MinVolumeMP:W]*[MeasureVolumeMP:]/[MeasureVolumeMP:MaxValue])).
You obviously can adjust the color, size and any other option of both meters as you want / need. If you try out the above meters and have and question related to them, please feel free to come back.
Hope you can get these meters to show what you want. Do you get them?
I'm glad. Hope you did realize that [MeasureVolumeMP:] means the numeric value of the [MeasureVolumeMP] measure, while [MeasureVolumeMP] is its string value. In many cases these two are the same, but not always. For instance a Win7AudioPlugin measure have different string and numeric values. The string value of such a measure is the name of the current sound device, while its numeric value represents the volume level, expressed as a percentage.

Yes. Thank you for explaining it neatly.
I didn't quite explain it neatly or extremely detailed, but am glad if you got the idea.
