This is a built-in Rainmeter feature. You can create a Windows shortcut with the following target:
Code: Select all
"C:\Program Files\Rainmeter\Rainmeter.exe" !TrayMenu
Ok, i did this, it created a rainmeter icon, but when opening the shortcut i get an error "Unknown !bang !TrayMenu"
I'm getting closer
Thanks,
Ken

You can either upgrade to Rainmeter 2.1 beta or use the !RainmeterTrayMenu bang instead.

Poiru,
I know this is a slightly old thread, but I have followed this exactly. It works great! But i would like to open the manage window when this is clicked. Currently it only opens the right click menu (like the right click menu when you right click a skin).
This is very nice, but as i said, i would love to have the "manage" window pop up instead.
I am currently useing RainMeter 2.2.0 r1116 64-bit.

Try the !Manage bang.
For example: In a skin you would use:
RightMouseUpAction=!Manage
If you are sending a command to Rainmeter, use this as the command:
"C:\Program Files\Rainmeter\Rainmeter.exe" !Manage

I've been using this bang since I first found this thread, but why isn't it listed in the Docs?
The quiet and inquisitive one.
