Prevent Rainmeter Minimizing on WindowsKey+D


Recommended Posts

Hello

Just thought I'd post a quick question here and get some advice on this...

I've run rainLENDAR for a while, and have never had problems with my calendar minimizing when pressing the Winkey+D shortcut.

But I've recently installed rainMETER and have everything set up nicely, only to find that it minimizes with the Winkey+D shortcut!

Is there any way to prevent rainmeter minimizing with this shortcut? Rainlendar doesn't have this problem.

Cheers to anyone that can help :)

AlwaysOnTop

If set to 1, the window is always on top of other windows. If 0, the window positioning is normal. If set to -1 the window stays back of the other windows. -2 pins the window to desktop and 2 keeps the window on top of other topmost windows. Note that -2 (OnDesktop) only works with Explorer-shell.

I have Rainlendar installed and from looking at the options menu, these are the same options, so one should work :)

arg don't i feel stupid - it's the exact same as with rainlendar!

don't know how i missed that... must have been a long mental blank

in any case, thanks heaps for the tip - i was even looking at remapping keys to use winkey+m for winkey+d!

cheers :)

    • Sounds creepy to say the least. Don't need nor want AI having access to my history. They're claiming it to be an "offline" model now, but how can we guarantee they don't go behind our backs and change that?
    • Exactly! Without those fundamentals you've mentioned, Democracy is literally just Demonstration of Crazy, nothing to be proud of in such system.
    • Still I see almost no ads in mobile Edge unlike Chrome. So their browser is much better at blocking ads than Chrome and it is a fact. It even blocks ads on YouTube and you can add simple custom block filters. Also, Edge still support manifest v2 on desktop, so I'll look for another browser when I start seeing ads again.
    • Considering they consistently release a new version every year, I think it makes perfect sense. There is a minor pain point at the time of the change, so as long as they only change it once, we get over it and end up in a better place. The issue with MS' naming scheme is that they change their mind so frequently. 3.1, 95, 98, ME, 2000, XP, Vista, 7, 8, 8.1 10, there is no consistency. That was the issue, not the choice of naming the OS after the year. Minor correction: Windows 7 was 6.1. Even Windows 10 was version 6.4 at launch, but they retroactively changed it to 10.0 early on, along with an announcement that they would no longer track the kerel version and OS version separately...then proceeded to call Windows 11 version 10.0.2, so yeah, MS sucks at naming.
    • I don't think there is any problem with the two-digit number. Even if someone didn't understand the meaning, 26 > 18, so they will still understand at a glance that it is a newer version. The only downside I see is someone assuming 18 is a MUCH older than 26, but IMO, that confusion really isn't a big issue. The truth is that the majority of software companies use the 2-digit number; Microsoft is the outlier, and even they used 2-digit numbers in the past.
