Hiding Visualiser bars on Fountain of Colors - visualiser.

Hello. I am brand new to Rainmeter and I am pleased with myself for already managing to do a few things. However I have hit my limit, even though a kind guy tried his best to explain it to me. I am using the skin Fountain of Colours for my visualiser and I want the bars to hide when audio isn't playing instead of the dotted line. I get that this involves measures sure, and you can do it a number of different ways like with WNP but I want to edit the code to add this in Rainmeter. I am perplexed however both what to write and where to actually even put it. There are a number of files with this skin.

Can anyone help me? Show me what to write and where to put it? Thanks all!

Hi Mods I think my post should go here and I accidentally have another in the Application thread.
That's not that easy to do since it's a complex and confusing skin, but here's how:
- install the skin from https://www.deviantart.com/alatsombath/art/Fountain-of-Colors-desktop-music-visualizer-518894563
- unload both the visualizer skin and the settings skin
- edit the C:\Users\[User]\Documents\Rainmeter\Skins\Fountain of Colors\@Resources\Variables.inc, set MinBarHeight=0 there and save that file
- do not load again the visualizer skin, but install the skin package again and close the settings skin
- now, the visualizer skin will be invisible since the "dotted line" is gone, but if you play some music you'll see that the bars are "hidden" when not playing
- go to C:\Users\[User]\Documents\Rainmeter\Skins\@Backup and delete the Fountain of Colors folder (the backup of the previous skin installation)
- enjoy
