The Conky works correctly here. This applies to the original as well as your code published here.

What is in your files
~/.config/openbox/autostart
and
~/.config/conky/conky-sessionfile.

maybe you'll double start him?
what does the terminal show with the command

ncal -bh

Use a different font.
A monospaced latin font - and one that actually exists on your system.

I don't understand "double", What does mean?

then command 'ncal -bh' appear normally.

Are those Korean, Chinese or Japanese characters?

I'm sorry, I can't help you. :8 You should wait for someone who is familiar with it...

Sector11 · 2019-08-09 13:41:35

monospace is aliased to another monofont, not sure which one, but something is messing up.

Do as ohnonot suggests use a mono font you have on your system

Test with a simple line near the bottom of the conky that just uses the ncal command:

Ezample:

[S] + v${alignr}Volume Control
[S] + x${alignr}Logout
[PrtSc]${alignr}Screenshot

${font Fantasque Sans Mono:bold:size=9}${execpi 3600 ncal -bh}${font}
]];

Keep us posted.

ohnonot · 2019-08-09 17:47:52

You probably need to tell conky to use default US locale, because I don't think this script snippet can deal width double-width Asian fonts.
try

LC_ALL=C conky -c /your/conky/config

It's no of use.
I used korean font NanumGothic additionally, but it's same error.

Edit ~/.config/conky/conky-sessionfile with support.

It appear normally
but today's highlight is missing.

Getting there.... Well done ohnonot

ohnonot · 2019-08-11 07:21:07

OK, do you want some Korean, some Western letters or not?
If yes, post #8 (*) looks OK, you just need a monospaced font - one that supports Korean also! Or different fonts for the Western/Korean bits.

Re post #9: Are you saying that with "LC_ALL=C" highlights are missing, but without it you see the highlights, with the exact same conky code?
Please show us that conky code.

(*) There are TWO calendars there. Why. Please be precise when communicating with the forums.

Right,
At first, To help understand that introduce bunselanb original code(BL-Def-Cal.conkyrc).
I use following code.
then highlight issue is solved by reboot. maybe conky update error occurred.
