[SOLVED]Image does not appear in conky

Post by filz0r »

Hello everyone, I am new in the hole Linux environment and I've been tweaking out my own conky to display on my desktop, although I've spent the last hour searching on forums I can't seem to make my image appear, I tried changing the directory in may ways and the logo I want to display next to the clock in the attachment doesn't appear at all, and when I try to put it on the beginning of the code the conky just messes up as shown

I've installed conky-all, conky manager and the sensors too, and I post here my code:

Code: Select all

update_interval 1
total_run_times 0

own_window_argb_visual yes
own_window_argb_value 0
own_window yes
own_window_type normal
own_window_transparent yes
own_window_hints undecorated,below,sticky,skip_taskbar,skip_pager

text_buffer_size 2048
use_xft yes
xftalpha 1
override_utf8_locale yes
uppercase no
double_buffer yes
no_buffers yes
gap_x 0
gap_y 0
alignment top_middle
default_color white
minimum_size 300 150
imlib_cache_size 0


own_window_colour 000000
TEXT
${image /images/logo.png -p 200,200 -s 200x200 -f 86400}
${font GE Inspira:pixelsize=90}${time %H:%M}
${voffset -80}${hr}
${voffset -90}${goto 15}${font Star Jedi:pixelsize=30}${time %A %B %d}
Thank you very much for reading this and helping me if you can,
and also if needed i can post more screenshots of the directories of the image :D

Hi, it's been ages since i stopped playing around with that..it was like an addiction..Try shuffling these parameters:
gap_x
gap_y
alignment
minimum_size

I've managed to solve it by using an otf font instead of the image, thank you very much though :D
here's a preview of the first version of my conky [if anyone cares to look :)]:
