Top5 Skin shows wrong memory values (using TopProcesses.dll)

[protator]

I finally found the time to check out RM and try a little coding myself.
No major problems so far >mainly because of the amount of helpfull threads(/users) in this forum< .
But my latest masterpiece seems to display bogus values in the top5 memory processes list.
I used TopProcesses.dll for that part of the skin.

; Is there a documentation for the plugin available somewhere?
; Or another plugin that can output running processes sorted by memory usage?
; TopProcesses uses a bit too much cpu for my taste.

Anyway, here's a screenshot of the relevant code, my skin and TuneUp Process Manager for comparison. Win Task Manager shows identical numbers, so just ignore it being TU.

I can post the whole script if neccessary, but there isn't much more related to this part of the skin.
No calc measures or anything, just a single meter that reads these two measures and displays the whole list in one go.

The skin resp those two measures update as they're supposed to.
I closed PaintShop afterwards and two seconds later PS vanished from the list.
Refreshing or reloading the skin doesn't help.

I hope there's someone here who can tell me what I'm doing wrong.

The only thing I can suggest you is here.

As you've noted, TopProcesses.dll uses some cpu...

Finally I found some informations on this plugin, here

Thank you, fonpaolo.
Unfortunately there's nothing new -or relevant to my problem- in that thread either.

Too bad, I guess I'll have to ignore the bug for now.

You're welcome.
I had (almost) the same problem in one skin I was creating and I had to give up with the TopProcesses plugin.

You might want to examine the Process skin (not ProcessCPU or ProcessMEM) created by Kaelri for Enigma...
In it, he uses the built-in plugin for AdvancedCPU, and the exclude function, to sort the top processes.

It may help...

That wouldn't be by memory through.
