1970 - Conky config [Conky 1.10]

By
Published:
3K Views

Description

 Place the skin in: /home/[username]/.conky/1970/conky_1970_b

Start up file included, don't forget to make it executable, standard is set to o variant, you can change this.
If you don't want the "You wouldn't download a car!" (or don't get the reference) you can remove it from the conky_start file.

Conky 1.10 has a new click through feature,  since this skin is rather big i can recommend it. If you're compiling Conky you have to add the build flag: BUILD_XSHAPE, if you have installed Conky from a package manager please contact the maintainer and ask them to add the flag to the package or edit the package yourself.


3 Versions:
========
<\strong>
conky_1970_b -> always black weather images
conky_1970_w -> always white weather images
conky_1970°o -> weather icon has the same color as the text

To change the color of the text edit the color0 variable and the value behind setColor (you will see it in the conky_1970_b/w/o file)



Window setting:
========
<\strong>
These depend on your specific system, window manager ect... these are made for gnome and should give true transparency but it is possibly your system requires other settings. I assume you will already have Conky configs and can copy past those settings. If not i recommend to search forums of your distribution and ask what settings other people use.

This config does not suffer from the real transparancy bug with own_window_set_rgba true because the pictures are drawn with lua! So real transparency for everyone!
