The !ShowFade / !HideFade bangs are used to show / hide a skin. A this way hidden skin is not deactivated, it runs, just cant be seen.
As parameter of the !ShowFade / !HideFade bangs, you have to give the name of config of the skin you want to show or hide. For instance the config of the C:\Users\YourName\Documents\Rainmeter\Skins\illustro\Clock\Clock.ini skin is illustro\Clock, while the config of the C:\Users\YourName\Documents\Rainmeter\Skins\illustro\Network\Network.ini skin is illustro\Network. These config names should be added as parameter of the !ShowFade / !HideFade bangs.
Alternatively there is another form of these bangs: !Show / !Hide. These are requiring the same parameter as !ShowFade / !HideFade.

Was just an (or two) example, to let you get the idea on what config does mean.

Something isn't going right :) Doesn't appear or hide

Code: Select all

[MeasureAlertScinE1]
Measure=WebParser
Url=[MeasureInfoAlertE]
StringIndex=2
IfMatch=^$
IfMatchAction=[!HideFade "C:\Users\RmicroN\Documents\Rainmeter\Skins\KEMSTAYL WEATHER V2_3\Alert\Alert.ini"]
IfNotMatchAction=[!ShowFade "C:\Users\RmicroN\Documents\Rainmeter\Skins\KEMSTAYL WEATHER V2_3\Alert\Alert.ini"]

For sure. The parameter of both bangs, !HideFade and !ShowFade has to be the name of the config, not the whole path of the skin file. Replace the C:\Users\RmicroN\Documents\Rainmeter\Skins\KEMSTAYL WEATHER V2_3\Alert\Alert.ini parameter by KEMSTAYL WEATHER V2_3\Alert:

Code: Select all

[MeasureAlertScinE1]
...
IfMatch=^$
IfMatchAction=[!HideFade "KEMSTAYL WEATHER V2_3\Alert"]
IfNotMatchAction=[!ShowFade "KEMSTAYL WEATHER V2_3\Alert"]
