Hi all and Happy New Year!

Further to this topic... although I get along fine with a conky on a single screen system I find it impossible to get proper placement of a conky at login on a dual head system when the conky is to be placed on the second screen. E Window Remembers and Locks are not retained and although the coordinates in the conkyrc are respected on a single screen setup they seem to get ignored in a dual-head setup and the Conky randomly appears on Screen 1 even if the conkyrc coordinates are written place it on Screen 2. I would guess that E is not looking at 2 screen setups as one large area like other DE's so numbers outside the dimensions of Screen 1 are ignored..?

Anyway not a showstopper but enough of an annoyance on dual-head setups that I have given up on using a Conky on those systems..

Best, Glen

Happy New Year,

I would like to start the new year by solving a few small computer issues I
have. One of them is related to my current E setup:

* The windows are placed using the "Place manual with the mouse" option. * For the "Startup Applications" I use the locks (Program Locks) not to be
forced to place them. It works fine for everything except "Conky".

I don't know how to add the locks for it. For the others, I used the
Enlightenment window menu, but I don't see Conky on the windows list. I defined the alignment in the conkyrc file, but it's now ignored by E (when
in the manual window placement mode).

alt+right moujse on any window gets you the window menu :)

Can I somehow force conky location?

Cheers,
Wawrzek
