Command-line parameters?

(1/3) > >>

kati42:
I'm trying to use DesktopCoral with Rainmeter, but because I'm a convertible tablet user, I have odd needs.  ;)  Basically, I need to move the reserved area depending on the screen orientation (landscape vs. portrait), and resize it based on that orientation as well.

If I could give DesktopCoral command-line parameters to set the size, location, docking, etc, then I could have a sidebar when in landscape mode, and a top bar in portrait mode (without having to go into DesktopCoral settings)...

The biggest challenge might be changing the current instance instead of creating a second one (ie, now when I run it twice I get two copies).

Actually, multiple instances would be nice too (but less critical) - there could be an ID given at the command line, and if it matches an active instance, it changes that instance.  If it doesn't, it creates a new instance with those parameters.

Anyway, this would be very helpful to me, and probably other Tablet users as well.

commandline support would be pretty easy to add, let me go ahead and do that.

kati42:
That would be awesome, and would really help my tablet usability!

Thanks!!

kati42:
When it's implemented, will the new version appear in the New Version thread, or will it be in a special beta area?

Thanks,

kati42

mouser:
ill try to implement it this weekend and then make a normal release of it.
