Hello
I saw that in recent updates Conky stopped working, I have read all the forums here and rewrote some of my old conky files to work with the new updated version, placing them in my
/home/trevor/.config/conky/
Now they work pretty well, but I’m stumped with the transparency,
If I use :
own_window_type = ‘desktop’ the window is transparent but disappears when I click anywhere
own_window_type = ‘override’ the window is not transparent but stays put
own_window_type = ‘normal’ the window is transparent but has the taskbar and border showing on it
any ideas?
Thanks
As I’m using XFCE I have the compositor in windows tweaks on
I don’t use a theme, just have the conky window ‘sitting’ on my desktop wallpaper
