Try this ${color steel blue} it should work.

**AriciU** · June 25th, 2007

Still can't see the MEMORY/DISC section above the blue transparent apple.

Is there any page where i can see a full list of color aliases that i can use? Other then the usual black, red, green etc?

Thanks

**dbbolton** · June 25th, 2007

no matter what i put as 'xftfont sans:size=10' i get an error like

Conky: can't load font 'sans:size=10'

any ideas?

**bonzodog** · June 25th, 2007

The font has to be down as Bitstream Vera Sans:size=10

Post a screen shot of your running conky config, and include your conky.rc as well.

xftfont Mukti Narrow:size=8

Code:

# Use Xft?
use_xft yes

# Xft font when Xft is enabled
xftfont Bitstream Vera Sans Mono:size=8

# Text alpha when using Xft
xftalpha 0.8
