Your idea is awesome, using another skin to achieve this. Please let me know if this solution was good enough. However, the skin should work (I hope!), making its job. Keep in mind that when you're loading the skin of the above code, you won't see anything on the screen, because it has one single empty string meter, without a Text option (so it's invisible). When Spotify is stopped or paused, the IfCondition isn't met any more, so, according to the bang of the IfFalseAction option, the Fountain of Colors skin is deactivated / unloaded. If it does, the plugin measure returns 1 and in this case, because the IfCondition is met, the IfTrueAction is executed, so the Fountain of Colors is activated / loaded.
See that the measure of this code, checks if the Spotify player is playing. If you clicked the New skin button, the newly created skin will open. So create a new skin (eg on the Skins tab of the Manage Rainmeter window, click the Create new skin button and name the newly created config FountainLoader, for example). Showing / hiding the skin isn't enough, you have to load / unload it, to avoid the extra CPU usage.įor this you have to create a new skin, into a different config than the Fountain of Colors. So, although I know how this could be achieved, I can't test the following solution. I'm not using Spotify (you also should take care how are you using it: ). I have to exit rainmeter and start it again everytime. The extra cpu usage by the skin when playing games or rendering video through madvr is annoying.
