- Description: Decorative horizontal and vertical desktop rules with independent configurations and color choices.

Divider Screen Layout Rules is a layout aid for a wide desktop. It draws horizontal and vertical rules so you can visually separate workspace areas without installing a replacement shell or claiming that applications will snap into those areas. It is a decorative Rainmeter family, not a window-management tool.

## What it includes

- Sixteen separate configurations: Vertical1 through Vertical8 and Horizontal1 through Horizontal8.
- Each configuration contains 26 appearances: 24 solid colours plus Rainbow and RGB gradients.
- The creator lists 416 files across the family; these are variants of one work, not separate skins to catalogue.
- Separate configuration folders allow several rules to remain active while you change the colour of one of them.

## Getting and setting up the skin

The collection README describes manual installation: copy the contents of skins into the Rainmeter Skins directory, refresh Rainmeter, then load the desired configuration. For this family, choose the Divider folder rather than loading the repository’s unrelated collections. Keep a copy of your existing skin folders and review what you are copying before replacing anything.

## Requirements and verification limits

The source does not specify an independently tested Windows build or a minimum Rainmeter version for Divider. Line dimensions and monitor placement were not exercised in this research. The preview is the creator’s colour chart, not a screenshot of application snapping, live desktop partitions, or a complete desktop theme. No performance figure is claimed here.
