Conky Window Not "Tall" Enough...

[JokerFMJ]

I'm using this Conky as a base and adding/adjusting things as I see fit. The problem I have run into is that the Conky window seems too short to display everything; the Network portion of the Conky is cut off. It is in fact showing, as where the information is cut off in such a way that I can see half the top half of the letters/numbers on that line. Also, when I remove some of the information I have added that portion shows fine, so it is apparent to me that it is some kind of window height issue.

I'm sure this is a simple question, and despite searching google and trying what I found there, nothing seems to be working to correct this issue. How do I increase the height of my Conky window?

I have included the code below.

Thanks!

Code: Select all

minimum_size 190 350
maximum_width 320

or

Code: Select all

border_inner_margin 0
border_outer_margin 0

As had a conky text cutting off and changing the border_outer_margin 0 to 10 helped.
And would think changing the 190 in minimum size to something else may increase size.

Before changing make sure you make a backup of the conky file.
As no expert here and the blind leading the blind here.

Thanks for the help, it kind of worked, but not quite in the way I was hoping. By adjusting the border_outer_margin is actually adjusts the entire border, width and height, so there is an extended portion on the left hand side that is just empty and completely wasted/unusable space on my desktop. Adjusting the minimum_size 190 didn't appear to have any effect.

I have included a screenshot of what exactly is happening in case my previous explanation wasn't sufficient (i can be a bit wordy and confuse things sometimes... lol)

Thanks.

I don't know what happened, because I haven't done anything other than actually add a few more lines, but somehow it's fixed... Even though I enjoy the fact that it's fixed, I hate not knowing how it's fixed in case it happens again...

sometimes text_buffer_size just needs more "room" (for the buffer output)
and extra carriage return or two sometimes will do the trick.

But watch the

Code: Select all

gap_x
gap_y
minimum_size 
maximum_width 

too.
