conkyquestion, problem with two funtions in the same line

this is one of my conkyliness

${font DejaVu Sans:size=6}${execi 1800 conkyEmail --servertype=IMAP --servername=imap.googlemail.com --port=993 --username=secret@googlemail.com --password="don't tell ya" --mailinfo=2 --ssl}${goto 1000}}${rss [url]http://www.werder.de/aktuelles/rss/index.xml[/url] 10 item_titles 3}${font}

so, the emailprog is using 1+2 lines,

2 new
first new email
second new email

and the rss-feed also uses 3 lines.
the emailview is on my left, rss on my right desktopside. i've got a problem because the rss-feed is now "under" my emailine, so it looks like i have empty lines on the right. any solution?

perhaps there is an easy positioncommandslution but i am realy to stupid to understand it

if needed, the emailscript

Re: conkyquestion, problem with two funtions in the same line

try to put this line into two separate lines with a ${voffset -x} at the beginning of the second line. just adjust the 'x' to fit your needs.

Re: conkyquestion, problem with two funtions in the same line

oO ? very strange,
i've just tried

${goto 930}${rss http://www.werder.de/aktuelles/rss/index.xml 10 item_titles 3}

and the 3 lines act like a block and go to 930...

Re: conkyquestion, problem with two funtions in the same line

maybe try to replace

minimum_size 900 900
maximum_width 1250

by

minimum_size 1250 900
maximum_width 1250

to fix the window size.

Re: conkyquestion, problem with two funtions in the same line

without imap the code is

${goto 1000}RSS ${hr 2} #${rss http://lazyubuntu.com/feed 60 feed_title}
${goto 1000}${font pizzadude bullets:size=10}t${font} Werder:
${goto 1000}${font DejaVu Sans:size=6}${rss http://www.werder.de/aktuelles/rss/index.xml 10 item_titles 3}${font}
${goto 1000}${font pizzadude bullets:size=10}t${font} FAZ:
${goto 1000}${font DejaVu Sans:size=6}${rss http://www.faz.net/s/Rub/Tpl~Epartner~SRss_~Ahomepageticker~E1.xml 10 item_titles 3}${font}

Re: conkyquestion, problem with two funtions in the same line

I've never had any luck with a goto (or alignc or alignr) persisting across a newline character in Conky.

Re: conkyquestion, problem with two funtions in the same line

The horizontal lines in Conky always try to fill the entire width. Maybe make your own horizontal line with emdashes "—".
