it will work if you save .conkyrc without re lgoin.
(in my case)

I will edit something on .conkyrc then save. then the conky will restart then it will not overlap. but when i try logout then login it will overlap. so i need to save the .conkyrc to refresh it. then it will not overlap.

im not sure why happen this.

Usually adding the delay to make sure X fully loads resolves this issue but if you added a 50 second delay, that should be more than enough time. Unless you are running on a beater.

Thanks for the help

Do you have a (transparent) panel in the bottom of your screen?

I see "gap_y 28", you could make it smaller, or throw some output away, or use a smaller fontsize, eg. change "xftfont LiberationSans:size=9" to "xftfont LiberationSans:size=8" or even 7... and modify every ${font ...} accordingly...

More expensive solutions include buying a 30inch HD-1080p enabled monitor, but you won't probably go that far for a conky would you?

You have 2 options.

Remove stuff you don't really care about so that the conky is short enough to fit.
Cut the conky in 2 and put 1 on the left and the other on the right side of the desktop.

To cut it in 2, just make two copies and name one .conkyrc.left and the other .conkyrc.right Then just start deleting stuff below the TEXT line that you will keep in the conky on the other side. Also change the line alignment top_right to alignment top_left for the left conky.

Finally start them with

Code:

conky -d -c ~/.conkyrc.left
conky -d -c ~/.conkyrc.right

Edit:

Hmmm, yeah, you heave 4 options

Remove stuff you don't really care about so that the conky is short enough to fit.
Cut the conky in 2 and put 1 on the left and the other on the right side of the desktop.
Use a smaller font
Get a bigger monitor

I see "gap_y 28", you could make it smaller, or throw some output away, or use a smaller fontsize, eg. change "xftfont LiberationSans:size=9" to "xftfont LiberationSans:size=8" or even 7... and modify every ${font ...} accordingly...

More expensive solutions include buying a 30inch HD-1080p enabled monitor, but you won't probably go that far for a conky would you?

Thanks for the info. I don't have a transparent panel at the bottom of my screen and I changed the font to
xftfont LiberationSans:size=7

but the information is still cut off wonder why

OK, I think I got it this time... There are so many of them I still don't understand why I didn't see them: try putting some empty lines at the bottom of the conkyrc... that should do it...

PS: I am talking about the ${voffset (positive)} you are using...

Today is the 1st but it seems to highlight other number ones.

I noticed that last night, when the calendar rolled over to 1 December. Sorry about that...

LoL! That's the problem with SED/AWK/CUT. Sometimes you get unexpected results...

post the script so we can see if someting out of place.

I had to come up with new calendar code. Basically, I got rid of the awk print calls, and tweaked the seds.

I'll post the new code, here.

Code:

##################
##   CALENDAR   ##
##################
${voffset 5}${font WenQuanYiMicroHei:bold:size=8.75}${color4}DATE${offset 8}${color8}${hr 2}
${voffset 4}${font LiberationSansBold:size=9.6}${color4}${alignc 5}${execpi 60 VinDSL_Cal= date +'%B${offset 6}%Y'}
${voffset 3}${font LiberationMono:size=9.5}${color3}${execpi 60 VinDSL_Cal= cal | sed '1d' | sed s/^/"\$\{offset 37"\}/ | sed '/^ *$/d' | sed 's/\<'"$(date +%-d)"'\>/${color4}&${color3}/'}

Seems to be working fine, now...
