Wins so much. <3 I'll be using it a while. E-chuuchuu's Evangilne always make me lol!

As for the volume, it seems to work fine, except I think that the button intervals should be increased somewhere around 25 or higher(or by 5's).
1 pt is a little too small to make an impact, imho.




I'm pretty sure I posted it at the same time. I always try to post everything I make at exactly the same time at different places...

It's easy to change that solwyern.

Just check measurevolumedown and measurevolumeup calc's change the 1 to your choice but don't forget to adjust the measurevolume above and below value. Might want it to bring in a meter that when pushed will max the volume and another that will zero out the folume.


Ah Fuwari .. so you used the above and below value. I was thinking of trying it and from what you have .. I can see it works I'll just have to change my above and below value . .I goofed when I first tried it and it didn't work out XD.

anyhow messing with code like this keeps on leveling me up on understanding. I think I'll be happy once I start understanding the webparser better though. That's going to be a trial for me cause I want to do some other things with it.

um just wondering if i can request one here can anyone make one from this pic

Well Fuwari .. I was testing the code way you used. I understand what I did wrong . .I was trying to make it automatically equal when it was above a certain number but of course that doesnt' work >_<. but i've encountered numerous bugs when trying to use that method by 10 increments

In order to do it my way I added some different measures cause I kept encountering issues with my down button meter not appearing at start. It was rather wierd and after much tinkering I ended up making seperate calcs considering I want two diferent shows and hides to appear depending on low or high. I was finally able to get the button to stop disappearing at startup but now I'm faced with some small bug. If the winamp volume is adjusted to a value that is off from 10 at times it overshoots the change of buttons to get max and min. So like if you set winamp volume at 240 and increment witht he 10 button . .it might loop over to 5. Same for dropping volume. and sometimes it gets caught. Otherwise . . if it works properly they will just max out or slicence the volume. The only other time this can happen is when you max but hit the button too fast that it shows the max and then 0 and then overshoots. Rather wierd .. wonder if it's due to refresh rate. I suppose for the most part it works but it's a lil buggy. I suppose it doesn't matter much. Since you seem to dabble in code also I'd like to see if you have any ideas. I don't know anyone else to ask besides rainy but since they are pretty much just working with rainlender 2 I don't want to go and ssorch that forum .lol.

@dancu

People seem to do that alot. Just ask for a rainmeter but the issue I'm starting to get with that is that no one really describes what they want. That's like asking a music composer to write music for a game without even describing what type of game it is. A script writer writing a script based ona book without even reading the book (although I tend to think script writers do indeed do this after watching so many movies XD ). In most cases I've come to the conclusion that most people tend to just want the image changed out of an existing rainmeter that they like and that's about it. >_> If that's the case though then I advise just reading over tutorial 1 that I wrote and edit XD.

Let me address the bugs one at a time:



Actually, I had that issue, too. In the version I gave you, I believe I fixed it by having the counter check to see how many ticks had gone by, and if the skin had just started, it would enable the volume down button. My working theory is that when the skin just starts up, it has not yet polled Winamp for data and thus has a 0, which would disable the down button. The up button would then need to be pressed to show the down button again. You fixed it in your code by binding not only the hide, but the show to the same measure.



Since you put your hide/show functions in a measure that's never called, it's never forcefully updated, so it has to wait for the update that occurs according to the value you have (300 milliseconds). This allows for the bug you mention, because as long as you reset the update period by forcing an update somewhere else, the one with the show/hide functions can't activate. You can see this when you start at 0 (or 255) and go up (or down) twice, then quickly back once. Since the show/hide function hasn't activated yet, the Min (or Max) button is still shown, and it takes it back to where you started. If you give it some time after going up/down twice, it should update the show/hide function, and should hide the Min/Max button.


Well, this is all theory, as I have no idea how Rainmeter runs the code, but I'm fairly certain on most of it. At least, I hope most of it is right ^^;;.
I made a new version of the earlier skin that works properly (as far as I've tested), has Min/Max buttons (idea taken from you ^^), and allows for a variable increment (you need to set two variables in the code). I set all of the hide/show functions in a MeasureVolumeStageOne, which gets the volume value from Winamp, and a MeasureVolumeStageTwo, which calculates MeasureVolumeStageOne+0. I then have all of the other Measures and Meters refer to MeasureVolumeStageTwo, which forcefully updates all of the buttons.

can anyone make me a shana rainmeter??? Please And Thank You =( heres a link to the picture

Here's a new skin using http://e-shuushuu.net/image.php?mode=view&image_id=60189.

The skin when opened:



The four buttons on the right open these windows:



These windows all operate as one would expect, with the exception of the hard drive monitor. The entire pie is a representation of four hard drives you put in the variables in that skin (mine are C:\, D:\, G:\, and Z:\, as you'll see), with dark colors representing used space and light colors free space. By clicking on a hard drive, the pie changes to display information for just that one drive, like so:


Pressing one of the hard drives again will return you to the main section.
All of these windows are seperate Rainmeters that are called by the main one, so you can reposition them at will, use them by themselves, or have another skin call them (what I made my Evangeline test skin for).


As for Kona-chan herself, you can change her to wear any of the eight costumes in the original picture. ã

Waaaaiiii~!!!! Arigatou, Fuwari-san!!!! That is so nice!!! kawaii~!!!
Do you mind if I download it?

Wow, that is pretty impressive Fuwari!

Arigatou ^_^. I would be happy if any of you were to download it.

o_O speechless thats way to cool..

This maybe off topic but why did rainmeter forums close down?

rainy couldn't handle both projects of rainmeter and rainlender. Basically he made a new version of rainlender and dropped rainmeter support. Rainy said that for the meantime it'll be this way . . and he doesn't intend to totally drop rainmeter since he likes it .. so it'll be on the backwater for now. Even so it has alot going for it. If only I knew how to write some sorta plugin for it .. maybe we could add more to it >_> but oh well. lol. I was sorta wondering if I could somehow use flash to enchance it. But I don't know if that would really work out very well. Would be nice if a plugin that uses a form of the webparser was actually able to embed a video, page, flash into a window . .then it'd be really possible.

Ahh I see..

Well this maybe a little to weird to ask this but whats the green bar in rain meter for? is it for the CPU tem or CPU activity?

Found few sites with rainmeter skins...

I have been looking for a while with no luck, so I thought I would ask, has anyone come across any websites with Code Geass rainmeter/rainlender skins?
