Morley-Sama and I just ran some checks and apparently Histograms do not work in
RC2
Other Meter issues may also exist. was not able to verify beyond Histogram.
All meter code should be observed to find possible additional discrepancies.
I can not tell you much, but show by example.

As you can see in the second image, the opaque white area (Second defined graph
in skin) is no longer seen below the white line.
This happened immediately after install of RC2.
I restarted Rainmeter, Refreshed, etc.
I ultimately re-installed RC1 and the secondary graph now shows the skin
correctly.
So there is an issue between RC1 and RC2 for certain
Skin Code

Thoughts???
