Re: font name error message
My guess would be a mistyped variable. Search the .ini for <font name> or font name.

Re: font name error message
Yep... Look for anything having to do with the fonts (face, size, color, style etc.) in your meters. Particularly look for things where are variable is being used Fontface=#FontFace# and then check that it matches what is in the [Variables] section of the .ini at the top.
[Variables]
FontFace=Tahoma
[MeterName]
FontFace=#FontName#
This will cause exactly the error you are getting.

FontFace=Tahoma
[MeterName]

Re: font name error message
I think your problem is here:
You need to change the font size to be above 0
Code: Select all
[MeterDay]
MeasureName=MeasureDay
Meter=STRING
X=25
Y=68
FontColor=0, 0, 0,255
FontSize=0
StringAlign=LEFT
StringStyle=Bold
AntiAlias=1
FontFace=Trebuchet MS
