Q&A

-Weather is not working. Help me!
Always remember you have to use weather.com-like codes!

-Codes? What?!
Go to weather.com. Search your location. Now take a look at the URL: there'll somewhere be your location + your country + the code you're searching for

Example:
I'm typing in "Würzburg"

the url is: weather(dot)com/weather/today/Wurzburg+Germany+GMXX0142?lswe=wurzburg&from=searchbox_localwx

so my code is GMXX0142

-Why are the Apps animated and the rest isn't?
Well, animation in Rainmeter always means a lot of CPU usage. An app-launcher doesn't really have measures, so the CPU-Usage is quite ok. But: skins with lots of measures (such as System and Weather) would cause more CPU-Usage than it should.

If you got any more questions, or simply like it, feel free to leave a comment. I'd be happy about some :+fav: or :llama:, too.

Enjoy :peace:

The animation of this skin is simply AWESOME! I allowed myself to modify it fits in my WB skin (here-[link]) but I've never seen an anim 'such as this one, in an open tab
Even as you write it,da beast eat a lot of ressources, it's still a pleasure to click above on it * _ *

I love it! thank you very much Pascal

Thanks for all the kind comments :)
Your modifications look great, why not consider making some skins on your own? ;)

Thank you for this appréciation ;)
Yes, i started a skin for few time ago,with your tutorial kindly joint in the tabmeter skin,even though I am far from mastering the codes and tricks as you do in your configurations but gradually, by changing and editing I begin to understand the codes,Path and their functions

Also I have many things in progress and unfinished for the moment...may be soon my first RM release who knows
Anyway ... I would not forget who lead me in this way ;)

Love it! :love:
Great work, one of the best of RM skins ever i think! =)

But, could you make all tabs animated? :la:

Making animation in Rainmeter needs a lot of CPU power.
The more code a skin has the more cpu power it would take.

An app-launcher hasn't actually much code, it's a rather simple skin.
So CPU usage is ... quite okay.

Although, doing the same thing with the weather skin, for example, would really eat up your cpu (unless your on some quadcore monster, I guess :D), so I don't think it would make all that much sense.
