    Thanks for all your work on this skin/layout MadFlor, going to try it out later.

    I don't think I've ever had to use the Ignore button before on this site but the begging guy, he just won't stop.

    Hello!

    Could anyone here make use of the TOPBAR overlay? I was able to use RAINBOW V.4 quite nicely, even inserting 3 additional data from HWiNFO w/o breaking it.

    The only thing I couldn't understand was how to make the units superscript.

    But the TOPBAR one, I couldn't use it properly.

    Anyway, I thank MADFLOR for the amazing work.

    1. Skin "TOPbar" was created on the old version of OverlayEditor.dll. And unlike "Rainbow" I didn't fix it for the new version.

    2. When creating the "Rainbow", I wanted this skin to be easy to read without using a background. So that the font and shadow are not smoothing. Therefore, it is made in pixel style, and the superscript of the text is the lowercase of the main font (scale 100%).
    Just enter the units in the "data source settings" in lower case.

    ok so after a long fn while ive finally managed and would like to share my perfected setup with everyone looking for one , here enjoy

    p.s still needs resolution support from unwinder tho but ive preset it so once its supported one just has to replace its placeholder sensor once so ,and just need simple tweaks to change from intel to ryzen , intel i9 etc by simply typing it over intel in layer properties by double clicking for example the cpu icon and changing that , also if you dont have watercooled gpus then change it to a fan controlled gpu instead by going into edit and selecting embedded image and then browse and selecting the one you want , hope this was alot more helpful then anyone else has been so far , also make sure to have HWInfo64 installed and shared memory support enabled , big shoutout to @MADFLOR once again , and to @Unwinder for the epic RTSS , shits the bomb!, also thanks for being so patient with me even tho i can be pretty annoying sometimes lols, cheers

    update> updated links cause some where having issue with theyre ips and zippy
