Hello everyone. I checked around the web and forums, and couldn't find any tutorials or hints on how to make a custom CPU/Memory meter. After digging a bit myself, I found out you can change the skin by simply replacing the .png file inside the folder, but what if I wanted to make a new CPU meter, with different outlay and meter positions? How do you do that?

Thanks in advance :D

i'm afraid that i don't know, but now that you've supplied that bit more info, maybe somebody else will be along soon to help.

have you looked at this tutorial yet - it's a start: http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/63913-gadgets-customize.html

i reckon you would need some programming/scripting skills to modify a gadget any more...

Yeah, I looked trough the .js file, and found some parameters that can be changed there, but it is really time consuming editing every single parameter to see what each of them does.. Guess the gadget makers themselves would know more, let's just hope they see this post and help :P
