Yes, it is possible, but you'll have to help Rainmeter do that from the Excel's VBA code - mainly, exporting / saving what you need from that spreadsheet / workbook (e.g. data or images), so that the Rainmeter skin can display it.Hello, is it possible to display with Rainmeter, an excel chart on the Windows desktop, which updates automatically according to the refresh of the corresponding spreadsheet? Thanks in advance if you have any solutions.
An example on how to do that when data is concerned, in this thread:

When it comes to charts though, you have two options:
- save the chart as an image from the sheet's VBA and then display the image in the skin using an Image meter

- export the data from the sheet using VBA and then create the graphic yourself in the skin, using Shape meters

Of course, this is a relatively complex process for a beginner in Rainmeter (it does help if you're proficient with Excel and VBA though, since that solves half of the problem), but since you asked...
