[Conky] ${hr} variable with fixed width

Hi everyone,

I was wondering if it was possible to make the subline produced by the ${hr} variable match a specific width.

Here is a screenshot:

The goal is to make ${hr} match the width of the date..

[edit] oh, and here is my conkyrc: http://pastebin.archlinux.fr/433652

Re: [Conky] ${hr} variable with fixed width

There is no facility/functionality to limit/specify the width of the hr tag

You could specify the width of your conky with "minimum_size" to match the required width - though if you are not using a fixed width font there will be some variation... or modularise your scripts with different widths for each sections... you could also RT(F)M

Re: [Conky] ${hr} variable with fixed width

So bad..
In fact, I already have two sessions of conky running, included this one (take a look to my conkybar on the bottom). Nevertheless, I must admit that I find that multiple session is quite a "dirty" way, especially when two session has several links between them.
Also, what I'd like to do with my conky doesn't let me make a minimum_size.
Is anyone have an idea ?

[edit] And, gosh ! I've already read the (funny) manual, I'm an Archlinux user !
