I've noticed that using {goto ??} takes objects over onto the right side.

I've used both voffset and goto hoping to get it to move to the right but I've had no such luck.

I'm stuck...

${goto XX} should move the text over to the right. If it isn't working for you try an extreme like ${goto 100}. If that doesn't move it nothing will.

I am pretty sure it moves characters over based on default font size.

Oh. Thanks Bruce. I got it working. I was doing it wrong

I used a small value initially, then I tried 400 and 1000, I don'tknow what it is but the "unseen" horizontal move that Bruce mentioned just isn't happening

I wonder if it is off screen. Try a negative or an ${alignr 20} (this should offset the align right by 20 characters.)

It doesn't go offscreen it stays smack dab right where it was >.<

Let me get what I have up and see if we can start from the beginning.

So in the before I have most of the settings as I want them. I have conky running it its own window on the right side.

As soon as I disable the window to use the invisible font so I have a transparent background I get the after.

Here's the code

# Use Xft?
use_xft yes

# Xft font when Xft is enabled
xftfont Cerdana:bold:size=7

# Text alpha when using Xft
xftalpha 0.8

# Update interval in seconds
update_interval 1.0

# This is the number of times Conky will update before quitting.
# Set to zero to run forever.
total_run_times 0

# Create own window instead of using desktop (required in nautilus)
own_window no

# Use double buffering (reduces flicker, may not work for everyone)
double_buffer yes

# Minimum size of text area
minimum_size 300 0
maximum_width 300

# Draw shades?
draw_shades yes

# Draw outlines?
draw_outline no

# Draw borders around text
draw_borders no
draw_graph_borders yes

# Stippled borders?
stippled_borders 8

# border width
border_width 1

# Default colors and also border colors
default_color white
default_shade_color black
default_outline_color white

# own window options
own_window		no
own_window_transparent	no
own_window_type		override
own_window_hints	undecorated,below,sticky,skip_taskbar,skip_pager

# Text alignment, other possible values are commented
#alignment top_left
alignment top_right
#alignment bottom_left
#alignment bottom_right

# Gap between borders of screen and text
# same thing as passing -x at command line
gap_x 10
gap_y 35

# Subtract file system buffers from used memory?
no_buffers yes

# set to yes if you want all text to be in uppercase
uppercase no

# number of cpu samples to average
# set to 1 to disable averaging
cpu_avg_samples 2

# number of net samples to average
# set to 1 to disable averaging
net_avg_samples 2

# Force UTF8? note that UTF8 support required XFT
override_utf8_locale yes

# Add spaces to keep things from moving about?  This only affects certain objects.
use_spacer right

text_buffer_size 2048

# variable is given either in format $variable or in ${variable}. Latter
# allows characters right after the variable and must be used in network
# stuff because of an argument

# stuff after 'TEXT' will be formatted on screen

I'm working on multiple conky. Everything is working great, except horizontal keeps moving when uptime & cpu% change values. A big thanks to any help i can get.
