VCloudsWeather2 ?

Post by AltairAC »

I decided to combine ObjectDock, Rainlander and Rainmeter and I pretty much got all the functionality I wanted but I have a little issue with the VCloudsWeather2 skin.
It's the coolest I found but I wanted to combine it with my multiplied Devotion\Notes skin by making the weather skin show and hide using the toggle bang. The problem is that this skin calculates when it's day and when night and shows it for the first day. The result of the combination can be seen here:

So at first look everything looks fine:

But when I click on the "Weather" text I get this (notice Tonight > Today , 999 and N/A):

Here is the whole modified skin (I use "VClouds Weather 2 - 8DaysH.ini"):

Second question, I want to start the weather skin hidden so that at start I only the see balloon and "Weather" text, is it possible to accomplish this in an easier way or do I have to put "Hidden=1" for each meter?

Yeah, and I should change all the Rocket dock icons :o

Could I maybe toggle the whole weather .ini file by left clicking on another skin (.ini file) by using these bangs:

Code: Select all

# !RainmeterActivateConfig [Config] [Ini-file]
Activates a new configuration ini-file. The ini-file is just the name of the file; do not include the path.

# !RainmeterDeactivateConfig [Config]
Deactivates the configuration ini-file.

# !RainmeterToggleConfig [Config] [Ini-file]
Toggles the configuration ini-file.
I tried them but they don't work, maybe I am writing my syntax wrong or I got the usage of these bangs wrong. I would appreciate any examples/help.
