Your brain shouldn't be fried, because it's logical that your "Skin A" doesn't see any measure called "MeasureSliderUpwards" for the simple reason that the latter belongs to another skin, aka "Skin B" (they're different skins / files, you know). However, it is possible to control stuff in another skin from the current skin, see the first Note here:So I have an image being used as a button in one skin to try and trigger a sliding skin but nothing happens when clicked and rainmeter's logs say the measure cannot be found. My brain is fried, please help.

Other than that, your "Skin B" isn't doing anything either, because the OffSet variable being initially 0 and SlideUp repeatedly subtracting 30 from the variable, although you should get negative values for the said variable, you won't since its value is clamped to be greater than 0 in that formula. A proper way to implement the original code is like this (replace "Test" and "Test2" with the config names of your "Skin A" and "Skin B", respectively)...
Test.ini:
Code:
[Variables]State=1[Rainmeter]Update=1000AccurateText=1DynamicWindowSize=1---Measures---[MeterName]Meter=ImageImageName=0.pngH=105W=1920PreserveAspectRatio=0---Meters---[MeterShowPicture1]Meter=ImageImageName=sse.pngX=916Y=0W=110H=110PreserveAspectRatio=1LeftMouseUpAction=[!CommandMeasure MeasureSliderUpwards "Execute #State#" "Test2"]DynamicVariables=1Code:

If you want to slide the actual "Skin B" / "Test2" skin from "Skin A" / "Test" - and not just the image in "Skin B" / "Test2" - then you'll probably have to take a look and use the !Move bang to reposition "Skin B" / "Test2" from an ActionTimer measure in "Skin A" / "Test":

So, it's not so much about the brain being fried, but about being a bit confused about how things work and what exactly you'd like to achieve.
