Re: Conky v1.10 Thread

You're welcome ... I'm no huge deal ... I just help with conky because I know how.  It's my way of giving back to Linux since I can't do a whole lot else.  I have a lot of text files here to remind me how to do things because I keep forgetting.   But conky is a daily thing so it's always right there.

And here with conky v1.10 I'm dead weight!

Re: Conky v1.10 Thread

Hey, folks.

Is if_running still broken? And what about if_match? Broken too?

I tried to recover an old workspace notifier and it doesn't work with the old or the new format:

conky.text = [[
${if_match ${desktop}==1}${color1}${endif}1 ${color}${offset 10}${if_match ${desktop}==2}${color1}${endif}2${color}${offset 10}${if_match ${desktop}==3}${color1}${endif}3${color}${offset 10}${if_match ${desktop}==4}${color1}${endif}4${color}
]];

Any suggestions?

Thanks.

Re: Conky v1.10 Thread

Hey, if_match is not broken. It works in fluxbox. It seems that own_window settings must be tweaked for different WMs and DEs more than before. Defining the class and name have an impact in it too.

Re: Conky v1.10 Thread

The aliases i created including the last one, monkyright="xrandr --output VGA1 --off && killall conky && xrandr --auto && xrandr --output VGA1 --right-of eDP1 && conky -x 1610 &"..apt, eh..work just fine from the terminal, just not in the menu and startup. Whatever environment you have, as little as i know, i betcha you can't either, tweak your settings all you want and try.

Re: Conky v1.10 Thread

You're welcome, although it's no trick, you'll find it listed in <man conky> among the list of options given as "Command line options override configurations defined  in  configuration file." before the list of configuration settings.

Re: Conky v1.10 Thread

Yup. We use to read man pages for other things but who reads the mans for conky or tint2? We all use guides on the web! LOL Then, after years of use, we find the secrets by chance, like this or dragging conkys around with alt+click.
