Post your .conkyrc files w/ screenshots

[CantankRus]

Hi brydonhunter looks good.
Can you post your moon.sh and pressure.sh script or a link to a download of a
conky that uses the same weather.
What do I need to see forecast images?

Here is one I have kind of settled on for a while.
Conkys are available upon request. There are 3 for this setup.

Hi CantanRus,

Here are my scripts:

moon.sh

#!/bin/bash

#function: moonrise_set
moonrise_set () {
    case "$1" in
         "FirstQuarter")
			echo "Noon/Midnight"
         ;;
         "FullMoon")
			echo "6PM/6AM"
		 ;;	
		 "LastQuarter")
			echo "Midnight/Noon"
		 ;;	
		 "NewMoon")
			echo "6AM/6PM"
		 ;;
		 "WaningCrescent")
			echo "3AM/3PM"
		 ;;
		 "WaningGibbous")
			echo "9PM/9AM"
		 ;;
		 "WaxingCrescent")
			echo "9AM/9PM"
		 ;;
		 "WaxingGibbous")
			echo "3PM/3AM"
		 ;;
		 *)
			echo "Unavailable"
		 esac

I am using gnome-shell 3.16 with ubuntu 15.10 and I can't get conky to display on my default display on my secondary display which is a TV. Here is a snippet of my config:

alignment top_left
double_buffer yes
no_buffers yes
gap_x 1600
gap_y 40

[QDR06VV9]

Try this tad1073
Gosh I hope I"m remembering correctly.
Yours Reads

gap_x 1600

Try instead

gap_x 1599

If that is not right make it 1601.
I'm sure you get the drift.

I've tried all different gap_x positions and none work. The only thing that does work is alignment but that just positions my conky on the left and right of my secondary monitor.

Try config settings as in this post

I once created an even simpler solution. Would be interesting to see if it helps.

Yeah, sorry no experience with conky and dual monitors so can't help much.
