Update: Arcs 1.2 (14 August 2011)

Just a small update. I've cleaned up the skin code, so it's a few hundred lines shorter. I also made it much easier to edit the variables for colors, drive letters and network speeds.

I also updated the progress bar to use the new NowPlaying plugin, instead of the old iTunes plugin. See here for a list of supported players and corresponding settings.

Update: RMSkin (20 November 10)

I've coverted the package to the ".rmskin" format, which makes it quick and easy to install new skins in the latest version of Rainmeter.

Update: Dark Arcs (20 August 09)

After many requests, it's my pleasure to announce the following additions to Arcs:

- A "Dark" variant, with inverted colors for use on brighter screens.
- The colors in the actual code are now labeled, so they'll be easier for others to edit.
- The Song Progress bar has been re-added to the Rainmeter version, using iTunes.
- Not really an update to Arcs, per se, but the new Rainmeter 1.0 features much-improved anti-aliasing, so those jagged inner edges you used to see in 0.14 are gone. The preview screenshot has been updated accordingly (it's been bothering me for ages).

Originally inspired by tok2's Circle. Thanks almost entirely to the efforts of onewithnopaper, "Arcs" has been translated from my original Samurize config into Rainmeter. As I predicted, it's a little rough around the edges - no one's fault, just an inevitable result of Rainmeter's inferior rendering. But it's completely functional.

Onewithnopaper really deserves the credit for this one. I was planning to spend this afternoon on the project; you can imagine my surprise when this showed up in an email.

Arcs will also be included as a bonus feature in the upcoming update to Enigma.

The original Samurize configs are included in this package.

Could someone tell me how to install this on Samurize?
It says that the original configs are included, but how do I isolate/extract those particular configs to use?

Beautiful skin! Clean, elegant, and SIMPLE TO USE (it's amazing how complicated similar skins are to modify, or even just to use!). Nice work!

In the skin folder, you'll find a folder called "Legend." This folder contains an image with labels for each meter.

Can someone tell me what's the size of the skin in RM, so that I can center it to the screen ? ^^ thanks

That thing is awesome, but I think it deserves to be a menu to disable or enable what you want to show (the network thingy slowed the machine down like a snail XD)

By default, the skin is exactly 429 pixels in width and height. :)

I'm not sure why the network measures would have any impact on Rainmeter's performance. Can you tell me what version of Windows you're using, and which version of Rainmeter?

Rainmeter Version : 2.4.0 r1678 64-bit (Nov 4 2012)

I'm on a Windows 7 64bits, but don't worry, the problem's not there. It's my own parent's house's energy providing that's making my PC a real worthless machine. Now that I'm in my flat alone with good power, there's no problem at all.

By the way, here's what I've done with Enigma : [link]
The major part is Enigma, but I wanted also a quick-access launcher, and I found it in Circular (don't know who made this anymore), which actually fits exactly the size of Arcs. That was ... awesome XD

Thanks, anyway, I'm supporting you. Enigma is really great :)
