[Solved] Help with config, please

Post by os. »

Hi,

I have this time / date config and it seems that the layout is too short for the length of the days "saturday" etc
and it cuts off the last few letters.

Here is the code. Any help would be great:

Code: Select all

[Rainmeter]
//Original by YBoris, Modded by RetardedRaven

//Time

[MeasureTime]
Measure=Time
Format=%H:%M 

[MeterTime]
MeasureName=MeasureTime
Meter=STRING
X=0
Y=24
FontColor=18, 20, 6
FontSize=65
FontFace=kremlin
StringAlign=LEFT
StringStyle=Bold
AntiAlias=1

//Date

[MeasureDate]
Measure=Time
Format=%d

[MeterDate]
MeasureName=MeasureDate
Meter=STRING
X=5
Y=100
FontColor=18, 20, 6
FontSize=50
FontFace=kremlin
StringAlign=LEFT
StringStyle=Bold
AntiAlias=1

//Month

[MeasureMonth]
Measure=Time
Format=%B l %Y
Substitute="January":"JANUARY","February":"FEBRUARY","March":"MARCH","April":"APRIL","May":"MAY","June":"JUNE","July":"JULY","August":"AUGUST","September":"SEPTEMBER","October":"OCTOBER","November":"NOVEMBER","December":"DECEMBER"

[MeterMonth]
MeasureName=MeasureMonth
Meter=STRING
X=100
Y=141
FontColor=18, 20, 6
FontSize=17
FontFace=kremlin
StringAlign=LEFT
StringStyle=Bold
AntiAlias=1
W=900

//Day

[MeasureDay]
Measure=Time
Format=%A
Substitute="Monday":"MONDAY","Tuesday":"TUESDAY","Wednesday":"WEDNESDAY","Thursday":"THURSDAY","Friday":"FRIDAY","Saturday":"SATURDAY","Sunday":"SUNDAY"

[MeterDay]
MeasureName=MeasureDay
Meter=STRING
X=95
Y=106
FontColor=18, 20, 6
FontSize=28
FontFace=kremlin
StringAlign=LEFT

Try adding DynamicWindowSize=1 to the [Rainmeter] section at the top of the skin.

One more question: I selected "Y as percentage" for the position and it has made my config "vanish".
How do i undo this, please?

Close Rainmeter, then open Rainmeter.ini (usually in %APPDATA%\Rainmeter\Rainmeter.ini) and remove the section for that config. Save and start Rainmeter.

Okay, i got it fixed.
The file was actually in Program Files>Rainmeter>Rainmeter.ini
The one you mentioned just displayed info for Enigma.
Thanks!
