XYZ AveSys Pack 1.2


***Get version 1.3, avalable only for Rainmeter***



Some people asked me for these configs, so I decided to officially release them (as promised). They are not so special, just made to suit My desk.

>I have redone all the images from scratch.
>Added shadow to the "XYZ Clock" and "XYZ Hybrid Simple" configs.
>Increased the size of the Bookmark configs.

>Use it if You like.
>Edit it however You would like.
>Make it better and release it freely, just let me know.

>Can't think of any name for the Pack, therefore XYZ.
>Sorry for the not so great Preview, I hurried into releasing it.


Wallpaper used in the preview is called It's a Blurry World by :iconrequestedrerun:.

Sorry for another post but i wanted to mention. People in the U.S.A might want to change "&unit=m" to "&unit=s" when setting up their weather.

Thanks a ton for this. Is there any way to change the clock to a 12 hour clock?
Reply
:iconscott-evo:
Thanks. :thanks:


Here's how you can get 12 hour time format instead of 24...

• Right click on the XYZ Clock Desklet → Configure...
• Go to Overlays tab.
• Click on Time, then in the Left side Click on Configure....
• Here in Content, Format change H of "%H:%M" to %I, i.e. "%I:%M".
• Go one step back and do the same for Time Shadow.

i want to ask once again.
i used only the hybrid black desklets in the avedesk, no anything else but i can't open avedesk control panel because when i right click the hybrid black, there are no control panel option. how i can get back the avedesk control panel. i'm very confused. *sorry if my english still bad.

If you are trying to make the configs bigger in size then you don't have to change anything in the AveDesk Control Panel rather just follow the guide which i gave you in your previous comment. ;)

If you are trying to re-size it from AveDesk Control Panel it won't work...


Instead you have to do the following (I'm taking XYZ Hybrid as example here)...

• Right click on whichever config you are trying to re-size.
• Press on "configure..."
• Go to "Overlays" tab.
• Here look for an entry called "Temp Background" and select it.
• Now press "Configure..." in the right side.
• In the new window you will find "Scale" with "X" & "Y" value, it's been set to ".5" as default, re-size it from here, make sure you re-size it proportional.
• Do the same for "Mail Background"
• Once re-sized set the draw distance for "Temp" and "Mail count" in similar way, just look for "Draw at".


I hope this gives the answer to your query, for any other assistance, just ask. ;)
