Need help formatting an edit of conky code please. [SOLVED]

[Logansfury]

Hello everyone,

I have a Temperatures section in my Conky Minimalis .conf file. It lists the temperatures of the 4 cores, which is dynamic, but after this is a static high and crit temps in parenthesis. I would like the section in paranthesis to be aligned to the right side of the widget. I tried separating the single line into two lines with an ${alignr} preceeding the second line, but it still didnt format as I wished. Here is my code:

Code: Select all

${color1}${font ConkySymbols:size=16}h${font} ${voffset -10} Temperatures» $hr${color}
${color1}${goto 35}CPU : ${color}${exec sensors coretemp-isa-0000 -u | grep 'temp[1-4]_input' | awk '{printf "Core %d: %+0.1f°F/%+0.1f°C (High: +84.0°C/Crit: +100.0°C)\n                   ", NR, $2 * 9/5 + 32, $2}'} ${alignr}${color1}
         GPU : ${color}${exec sensors | grep -A2 'radeon-pci-0100' | grep 'temp1' | awk '{printf "+%.1f°F/+%.1f°C (High: +90.0°C/Crit: +120.0°C)\n", $2 * 9/5 + 32, $2}'}

Thanks for reading,

Logan

Would be nice if you gave the compleet config! I have no clue how you setup your conky...

dynamic, but after this is a static high and crit temps in parenthesis. I would like the section in paranthesis to be aligned to the right side of the widget.

I'm pretty good with english, but this sound a bit abracadabra to me..
Doesn't mean that it's your fault, but could you paraphrase that another way.. in redneck language please
What is it exactly that you want?

Edit: Already fixed the 'Linux Mint 2x.x <codename>' and desktop name/version for you!

[Logansfury]

What is it exactly that you want?

If you look at the imgur image, you will see under Temperatures that I have 4 lines of info displayed: the fahrenheit/celsius temps of each core, and then the text (High: +84.0°C/Crit: +100.0°C)

The same is true of the GPU temp display.

what I am looking to do, is to separate these 4 lines into 8 lines, with the temperatures aligned on the left of the widget, and the high/crits aligned to the right side with the ${alignl} & ${alignr} codes.

also wanted to split the GPU display the same way, this way the text fills the box made by the conky graphic, and bounces less.

See what I mean? Its all just visual formatting of the text display.

I still want it to be 4 lines of display, but each line split into left and right text (5 lines with GPU)

What's the last message for? It's just quoting yourself..

But is this what you want? Gpu does not work for me because other driver, but i did the same trick with it as with the cpu temps.

And another thing, you need to learn to use the objects in the new conky way! Old conky's did not use the brackets {}, the new conky objects do! So it's ${hr} not $hr. Same for $mem $memmax $swap etc etc..
Always use brackets!
Another another thing, don't use spaces, but use ${goto xx} instead. That keeps everything alot more aligned, because if you use another font or fontsize somewere in the middle, a space is not the same anymore. ${goto xx} uses pixels!

[Logansfury]

Hey hey that's perfect

Nice and clean with text aligned both on left and right sides of the display area.

May I have the code to reproduce this?

I have been having an issue with some of my posts double and even triple posting. Im not sure whats causing it >.<

[Koentje]

You probably clicked on the quote button instead of the edit button..

But here we go! I fixed a few other alignment problems and missing brackets.

Let me know how it works!

[Logansfury]

Perfect formatting!

For some reason, the top graphic box is red while the other 3 are white. I didn't see any code to correct this so I overwrote the Temperature section from your .conf edit and I have the nice-looking formatting I was hoping for!

Thanks so much

How do you like the new graphs? I installed them with Godzilla's help right after you got me up and running with the Fan speed displays.

My fault! I accidentally deleted a ${color}, but i corrected the mistake right after i posted, so you probably got the old code..

Thanks so much

You're welcome!

Font is too small for my display.. i'm too old for such small fonts haha
But it seems to fit nicely with your color scheme! Post a screenshot if you will..

[Logansfury]

recopied the code you posted and am now using that.

Here is a screenshot: https://imgur.com/a/IkuYlRb

Are you sure this isn't an old screenshot?? The cores are not aligned on this one..

That might have been an old ss. Here is a current: https://imgur.com/a/TJKlfZ9
