Re: Show us your conky

^ It looks great.

Dark lines can be a problem because part of the text will be invisible if the background (wallpaper) is also dark.

In the file show-lyric.ini  you have a color scheme (DARKEST LINE, LESS DARK LINE, HIGHLIGHTED LINE) and you can easily adapt it to any background if necessary.

If you want, you can also change the font in the same place (instead of Ubuntu).

Great job!

^Thanks to you, I found a Conky to play with. This works quite well on 'carbon'.

Re: Show us your conky

Hello

Continuing to play with Tahoe, here is a weather conky that uses a floating bar. This bar moves and enlarges depending on temperatures between -15 and +40 °C.

Re: Show us your conky

^ Maybe it's better to make an execbar for precipitation when you already have percentages (IMO).

I thought about it, but don't you think it might be a bit much in the conky?

Re: Show us your conky

^ Honestly, I've never seen an execbar in weather conky.

I know you're playing around and trying to add something new, but I don't know if it's a good idea.
Anyway, I support your creativity.

Re: Show us your conky

^ Ah, you didn't understand me.
I didn't mean to add both (precipitation + temperature).

Precipitation is already in percentages and it is easy to make an execbar.
The bar showing the Low/High temperature is not clear to me and I don't know what the orange part is.

I assume that it is the absolute value of the difference between the highest and the lowest temperature?

Visually (as an effect) it looks good in conky.
