This defines what reading you are interested in querying from the sensor you specified. HWiNFOEntryId is required for all types except SensorName and SensorNameCustom. HWiNFOSensorId and HWiNFOSensorInstance are required to uniquely define the sensor in HWiNFO to query. To do this:ġ - ensure HWiNFO is running, with sensors and shared memory activeĢ - run the included 'HWiNFOSharedMemoryViewer.exe' file - you can also launch this by clicking the HWiNFO icon in the Rainmeter skinģ - There are 4 parameters available for use in your skins. You will need update the HWiNFO IDs in the Variables section of this skin to match the IDs for your system. This skin now requires HWInfo running and allows for readings from the CPU, GPU, motherboard and hard drives. * Clicking on hard drive letters will open Windows Explorer in that drive. * You can also left click on the media player progress bar to skip to a point in a track. The round Volume meter uses the large digital display in the centre to change volume with scroll wheel and the remainder of the skin for auto-scale. All round meters can be resized using mouse wheel. * Rectangular Volume and Player skins also support changes by left clicking the volume & progress bars. * Both the volume control and the media player skins can have their volume adjusted using the mouse wheel. There are instruction in the skins where required for configuration (Right click & select edit skin.) all pretty straight forward. The skin uses 3 colours and if you middle mouse click any skin you with be taken to the settings file where you can adjust them globally to suit your taste. I have combined controls into groups, and the round meters come in 4 variants. Therefore the intention with the Dashboard suite was to use Rainmeter's built-in abilities only with a font or two for good measure used for the media player controls and weather icons everything else is created using Rainmeter lines and arcs. One of the biggest struggles I have is generating the graphics for skins using a paint package. The round meters are scalable using your mouse wheel. I wanted something that resembled the funky LED display on my wife's car hence the name and style of these skins.
