I spent a couple of hours carefully organizing and tweaking everything w/ a new skin I had downloaded, which was a lot of fun..

..unfortunately, Starcraft had reduced my work from this + Show Spoiler +

Close Rainmeter before playing SC. Rainmeter is horrible, you have to change everything in the .ini files, and it seriously wants to adapt itself to your resolution, be it changed by a game or not.

For those who want the skin: http://browse.deviantart.com/?qh=&section=&q=rainmeter simple sentence 2#/d2onvea I edited some of the font sizes and x/y positions though

and my computer isn't very good so it lags during windowed mode haha

Windowed mode fixes any of the positioning fails with rainmeter, but a lot of people want full-screen SC (full-screen changes the display resolution which rainmeter "adapts" to). I really hate this about rainmeter, I wish there was a way to have rainmeter ignore certain programs when they change resolution

Thanks, I guess this is the best solution for now. Now time to go reorganize everything again lol..

Can't you just save the ini with the correct posistioning, and copy/pase or delete/paste it over the screwed up posistioning once you're done playing starcraft?
