Re: Show us your conky

No problem. I'm actually planning on adding some more info for my 2 SSD's and battery charge info. You can go ahead and comment out the line for the system fan information, I don't see it displaying anything in your setup.

EDIT: I see the 4 values in your fan line. I assume you're pulling from on board motherboard sensors for that.

Re: Show us your conky

Ok, I have taken this as far as I can go and now need professional help (Paging S11) tongue

First off - Thanks Teo for the horizontal 5 day forecast and script to make the .png's greyscale. Worked perfectly.

Seriously though. I have most things (95%) formatted how I like them. But let's take a look at the scrot.

2017-03-29-03-29-30_scrot.th.png

I'd like the weather icons and text to line up with the circle in the top section which also lines up with the text underneath the circles. Pretty much everything in a nice neat grid.

Thanks all for the help and guidance, I've learned a lot. I have tinkered with it and identified where some alignment comes into play in the weather section (EX: ${image $HOME/1_accuweather/forecast_2015_grey/forecast_4.png -p 340,345 -s 90x54}). Those aren't Teo's original values, I adjusted them to get MOST of the info to fit. But the fine tuning of getting day title, icon, side text and underneath text to line up while also lining up with the circles and text info above is beyond my skills at this point in time.

Also a question:

I have specified "draw_borders no" and yet the membar still has a border aroound. Why is this happening?

Hi Temetka ....

draw_borders no # draw_borders 	Draw borders around text? 

means draw borders around the entire conky.

2017-03-29_165821_Scrot11.th.png

BARS; ie all conky native 'bar' commands below TEXT have 'borders' - always, sorry.

Graphs are different, those have a switch used above TEXT:

draw_graph_borders 	Draw borders around graphs?

conky v10: true/false or conky v9 yes/no or true/false

Re: Show us your conky

Thanks!

So should I be using "offsset" or "goto" for horizontal line items?

From the conky vairables site:

goto	x	The next element will be printed at position 'x'.
offset	(pixels)	Move text over by N pixels. See also $voffset.

I hope this makes sense. Thanks for all the help everyone.

Makes perfect sense to me.  And it usage depends on what you want to do.   For example I personally avoid "offset" like the plague - even though I know how to use it.

goto always calculates the distance in pixels from the left edge of the conky
offset calculates the distance in pixels from where it is used on the line.

${goto 100}${membar 6,60}
${goto 40}Temetka${goto 10}Hi
${offset 40}Temetka${offset 10}Hi

Let assume the days of the week are from a conky command like in Teos scripts - therefore the lenght of the output is unknown to 'conky' and you want to space them.  Wednesday is the longest word for a week day name so we test with that for columns:

Wednesday  Wednesday  Wednesday  Wednesday

Sunday${goto 95}Monday${goto 182}Tuesday${goto 272}Wednesday
Tuesday${goto 95}Wednesday${goto 182}THursday${goto 272}Friday
Friday${goto 95}Saturday${goto 182}Sunday${goto 272}Monday

Look what happens if we use offset:

Sunday${offset 95}Monday${offset 182}Tuesday${offset 272}Wednesday
Tuesday${offset 95}Wednesday${offset 182}THursday${offset 272}Friday
Friday${offset 95}Saturday${offset 182}Sunday${offset 272}Monday

2017-03-29_175550_Scrot11.th.png

Not the same.  goto is exact - always, offset is a guessing game UNLESS you use it after a fixed output or always as the first command:

length of output always x characters${offset xx}conky command${goto yy}conky command${goto zz}conky command

Re: Show us your conky

Well I'm going to chalk that up to a brain fart. I know I read that on the conky variables site. tongue

Shame about not being able to do a borderless bar though.

You can use lua to create all kinds of bars, graphs and meters for conky. The Conky wiki has some examples as a start point: https://github.com/brndnmtthws/conky/wi … rcle-meter

Sorry, I forgot you don't want to learn any lua tongue

OK I'm checking this out.  There are some OOPSIES I see up front:

${font CaviarDrams:size=10}

1.  The font CaviarDrams does not exist ... so that would be: Caviar Dreams.  Soooooo glad to know I am not the only one to make typos. O:)
2.  Obviously the weather will not work; unklar got you going on a good direction on that though.

Also Caviar Dreams is NOT a mono font see the difference between RAM Usage and SSD Usage ... SSD is narrower than RAM.  This will give you problems with the ${offset} commands you are using.  Change to ${goto}.  Personally I would drop the word "Usage" - you know that what those lines represent anyway. wink  (Personal choice/option/opinion)

And once you call a font, you do not need to call the same font again, conky will use that font until you "change" it.

You are doing this:

${font Caviar Dreams:size=10}BAT: more commands
${font Caviar Dreams:size=10}CPU: more commands
${font Caviar Dreams:size=10}RAM  more commands${font}
${font Caviar Dreams:size=10}SSD more commands

on the third line you closed Caviar Dreams:size=10 and then immediately reused the same font and size.

Above TEXT you are using:

xftfont CaviarDreams:size=9

change that to:

xftfont CaviarDreams:size=10

and you can eliminate "some" of the vertical offsets ${voffset}

Your data section could look something like this:

${color3}BAT:${goto 45}Full${goto 100}${battery_bar 5,50}  100%
CPU:${goto 45}${cpu}%${goto 100}${cpubar 5,50}  ${acpitemp}°C
RAM:${goto 45}${mem}${goto 100}${membar 5,50}  ${memmax}
SSD:${goto 45}${fs_used /}${goto 100}${fs_bar 5,50 /}  ${fs_size /}${color}

Also: the week day names are different lengths ... looks what happens when I add Wednesday (longest and Friday (shortest with non-mono fonts because " i " is really thin)

Sooooooooooo centre that week day name line  smile

And this is how I would do the top part of that conky:
2017-03-30_162025_Scrot11.th.png

Above TEXT change the default font:

xftfont CaviarDreams:size=10

and below TEXT to the beginning of your weather:

TEXT
#${image /home/temetka/.config/conky/images/sun-c.png -p 70,0}

${goto 110}${color1}${font Kenyan Coffee:size=65}${voffset 5}${time %H:%M}${color}${font}
${voffset -17}${color2}${font Shimes One PERSONAL USE:size=65}${alignc}${time %A}${color}${font}

${goto 80}SSD:${goto 112}${fs_used /}${goto 160}${fs_bar 5,80 /}${alignr 15}${fs_size /}${color}

################# WEATHER INFO############

I do not have a battery so that line should reflect your original line with the proper ${goto xx} commands and the final ${alignr 15} command.

And last but not least; the 80's style sunset image I used: 80s_sunset.png (if you want it!)

Comment:   A really nice looking little conky!

===== EDIT:

Might just edit that and match it to my system for personal use.  smile

Re: Show us your conky

Well well well.

I had scrapped given up on that conky, couldn't get it to look right.

Now what you have there is pretty awesome. I love the sunset tree pic. Yours looks more 80's than mine, glad I was able to inspire it.

On a different topic: Have you looked at the other one I posted.

Re: Show us your conky

So after revisiting my 80's conky and using S11's palm tree (resized 50% in gimp) and consulting the wife on colors as well as googling color palettes and judicious use of the gcolor2 picker and it's color code, I present this:

2017-03-30-23-52-28_scrot.th.png

Here's is the totally rad code that made this bodacious conky possible. Note I left a lot of color code in it for you to play with.

Note: I haven't decided if I want to add the weather in here or not. My concern is the color palette may or may not work with color schemes of Teo's png's. It would be like totally NOT cool if the colors clashed. As if. That would be majorly lame.

I think this is a class of its own.
This is an artistic composition! Perfect!
Thanks for pointing to Teo's weather script. good2.gif
