A rainmeter skin that will automatically switch to a specific layout on resolution changes. I often need to connect / disconnect multiple monitors, and Rainmeter seems doesn't provide a way to auto switch the layout when that happens, I will need to manually switch layout everytime that happens, which is annoying.

So far I only found a tool named RainRez that offers similar functionality, but it only checks the default monitor's resolution, and requires running a separate .exe file, therefore I decided to make my own...

1. Download the .rmskin file from the Releases section.
2. Double click the .rmskin file to install the skin.

1. To utilize AutoLayout, you must first load the AutoLayout/Main.ini for each layout you want to switch to, and then save the layout.
2. Edit the configuration files located at ~YourRainMeterSkinFolder\AutoLayout\@Resources\Variables.inc, specifically the LayoutMap variable.
3. The skin will monitor any resolution changes, and auto switch to the associated layout in LayoutMap if provided.

• The term "virtual screen" refers to the screen that encompasses all display monitors. For example, if two horizontally aligned monitors with resolutions of 2560x1440 and 1920x1080, the virtual screen size would be 4480x1440. Refer to Rainmeter documentation for info.
• In the LayoutMap variable, if for example value "4480x1440=Layout1|2560x1440=Layout2|1920x1080=Layout3" is provided:
  • Both the 1440p and 1080p monitors are connected → switch to Layout1
  • Only the 1440p monitor is connected → switch to Layout2
  • Only the 1080p monitor is connected → switch to Layout3
• The skin will check resolution changes every second, modify the skin's update rate if needed.
• Check Rainmeter's log for log messages from the skin.
