You can do it but I doubt you'd achieve much. I find conky rather fragile and awkward to use. Polybar or Lemonbar would be better.
@Dobbie03; you are correct; conky is not the application for a taskbar.
Polybar works well with X11.
Waybar, and Yambar for Wayland - although I don't know how well their system trays are working. Yambar also works in X11.
For X11 tint2 with some executors works well, but can get resource hungry.
Yeah, conky is a system monitor. Not a launch/start bar. Although mepeachy and falldown had a really good thing going at one time with interactive conkys that might have been the start of something that could have developed into a "task bar"
Best to use a tool made for the job.

Re: Show us your conky
^^^Heee... BINGO you 'old fox'! 
It's because of the font! I spent hours using other people's time and changed the settings what felt like 100 times. 
I didn't have the typo with 'xftfont...' here.
Even in your 'old age', you are and will remain El Conkystador! Thank you my friend.

We toss things around enough, we usually find that "something" that caused the OOPS!
My OOPS! wasn't the same as your OOPS! but it did lead to finding it.

Re: Show us your conky
@ceeslans
this is the one we're talking about.
I don't know if you got it working...
DeepDayze's post on the siduction forum put me under pressure, so I started looking into it: https://github.com/brndnmtthws/conky/wi … Evaluation
The warning message from conky-V1.24.2 onwards reads:
conky: WARNING: cairo_xlib_surface_create is deprecated and will be removed in a future release. Use conky_surface() instead.See: https://github.com/brndnmtthws/conky/wiki/Lua:-EvaluationCould you modify lines 296-297 and 343-359 in the lua script and tell me if it works for you?
from
..
require("cairo")
require("cairo_xlib")
...
if conky_window==nil then return end
local cs=cairo_xlib_surface_create(conky_window.display,conky_window.drawable,conky_window.visual, conky_window.width,conky_window.height)
local cr=cairo_create(cs)
local updates=conky_parse('${updates}')
update_num=tonumber(updates)
if update_num>5 then
for i in pairs(settings_table) do
display_temp=temp_watch()
setup_rings(cr,settings_table[i])
end
end
cairo_surface_destroy(cs)
cairo_destroy(cr)
end
..to
..
require("cairo")
--require("cairo_xlib")
...
if conky_window==nil then return end
local surface=conky_surface()
local cr=cairo_create(surface)
local updates=conky_parse('${updates}')
update_num=tonumber(updates)
if update_num>5 then
for i in pairs(settings_table) do
display_temp=temp_watch()
setup_rings(cr,settings_table[i])
end
end
-- cairo_surface_destroy(cs)
cairo_destroy(cr)
end
...According to this Evaluation-page, this should work from ~conky-V1.18.3 onwards in the corresponding conky versions. I have version 1.24.2 here.

Re: Show us your conky
@unklar : Note that I'm currently running conky version 1.22.3 - so unable to check the code on a higher version.
I made adjustments as you proposed, but the lua part fails to create any rings, mostly seeing error messages related to 'conky_surface', like:
conky: llua_do_call: function conky_main execution failed: /home/one/.conky/LUA/rings-galore.lua:350: attempt to call a nil value (global 'conky_surface')This conky is running without fail my my current setup. I remember making changes to the rings_v.1.3.1.lua script , when comparing it with similar lua scripts in MX.
Firstly with the main " cairo " call, which I changed to:
require 'cairo'
pcall(function() require('cairo_xlib') end) and a number of adjustments in the 'surface' code (sorry, didn't record specific changes...) and many many changes in the settings table.
Ultimately, I renamed the adjusted lua script to 'rings-galore.lua' - which is running error-free on my Devuan setup.
Perhaps best if you check out this updated lua-script and the conkyrc file:
rings-galore.lua
--[[
Ring Meters by londonali1010 (2009)
modified by ceeslans to enable network traffic display on MXFlux (2026)
Also a color_table was added to simplify setting colors for the lua rings.
++++++++++++++++++
This script draws percentage meters as rings. It is fully customisable; all options are described in the script.
IMPORTANT: if you are using the 'cpu' function, it will cause a segmentation fault if it tries to draw a ring straight away. The if statement near the end of the script uses a delay to make sure that this doesn't happen. It calculates the length of the delay by the number of updates since Conky started. Generally, a value of 5s is long enough, so if you update Conky every 1s, use update_num > 5 in that if statement (the default). If you only update Conky every 2s, you should change it to update_num > 3; conversely if you update Conky every 0.5s, you should use update_num > 10. ALSO, if you change your Conky, is it best to use "killall conky; conky" to update it, otherwise the update_num will not be reset and you will get an error.
To call this script in Conky, use the following (assuming that you save this script to ~/scripts/rings.lua):
lua_load ~/scripts/rings-v1.2.1.lua
lua_draw_hook_pre ring_stats
Changelog:
+ v1.2.1 -- Fixed minor bug that caused script to crash if conky_parse() returns a nil value (20.10.2009)
+ v1.2 -- Added option for the ending angle of the rings (07.10.2009)
+ v1.1 -- Added options for the starting angle of the rings, and added the "max" variable, to allow for variables that output a numerical value rather than a percentage (29.09.2009)
+ v1.0 -- Original release (28.09.2009)

Re: Show us your conky
^^@ceeslans
Excellent! Thank you so much for your help.
This is on conky-V1.24.2.
I also tested it on 1.22.1 from carbon. There, the error '(global 'conky_surface')' exists (which seems fixable to me).
The modified code in Lua:
Line 291
require 'cairo'
--pcall(function() require('cairo_xlib') end)Line 347 - 361
if conky_window==nil then return end
local surface=conky_surface()
local cr=cairo_create(surface)
local updates=conky_parse('${updates}')
update_num=tonumber(updates)
if update_num>5 then
for i in pairs(settings_table) do
setup_rings(cr,settings_table[i])
end
end
cairo_destroy(cr)
endAnd, the terminal shows no errors.
BTW, thanks again for your absolutely clean code! +1

@loutch
Off topic.
Here I changed the color scheme:
https://forums.bunsenlabs.org/viewtopic … 43#p140243
Now the weather icons are the same as in MyForecast:
Open index.html (and index_gif.html) and set the new color scheme.
It should look like this:
---
data-highcolor="#ff8080" data-lowcolor="#0060ff" data-suncolor="#f5a31a" data-mooncolor="#f5a31a" data-cloudcolor="#c4c4c4" data-raincolor="#5294e2" data-snowcolor="#ffffff" data-windcolor="#c4c400" data-fogcolor="#778899" data-textcolor="#60ff60" data-thundercolor="#f5a31a" data-dayscolor="#dadada" data-tempcolor="#d4d400" data-label1color="#c4c4c4" data-label2color="#0060ff" data-desccolor="#e4e4e4" data-basecolor="rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)"

Re: Show us your conky
^ A nice Winamp skin for Audacious.
I played around a bit with Audacious skins and modified one to my own taste:

I also made a Conky in the same style, which displays album cover when I listen to radio stations:

Conky is in the middle.

Re: Show us your conky
^Tu trouveras le lien ici: https://forums.bunsenlabs.org/viewtopic … 75#p153275
Tu dois télécharger le fichier zip.
Le projet est en pause. Le Conky que tu montres, c'est le 05 dans les fichiers. En quelque sorte, le couronnement provisoire.
J'ai lu tous les fichiers README de la version 01 à 05. C'est important, car l'auteur y indique également quels paquets il faut installer. Il a effectué ces opérations sur Manjaro/Arch.
Si tu rencontres des problèmes, n'hésite pas à me contacter.
Tu n'as pas besoin d'un fichier .conkyrc dans ce sens-là.
Tout est en Lua pour Wayland.

^You'll find the link here.
You have to download the zip file.
The project is on hold. The Conky you're showing is the “05” version in the files. It's basically the preliminary highlight.
I’ve read every README from 01 to 05. This is important because the author also mentions which packages need to be installed. He did this on Manjaro/Arch.
If you run into any problems, let me know.
You don't need a .conkyrc file in that sense.
It's all Lua for Wayland.

The Compostor takes care of all that, either Niri here or Picom for BL.
