Hello!
I'm testing Conky again after few years.
Does anybody know a method to force Conky instance to be visible on my both screens? Currently Conky is visible only on my notebook screen, not the HDMI external one.
Any clues?
My Conky config /almost default one/:
-- vim: ts=4 sw=4 noet ai cindent syntax=lua
conky.config = {
alignment = 'top_right',
background = false,
border_width = 1,
cpu_avg_samples = 2,
default_color = 'white',
default_outline_color = 'white',
default_shade_color = 'white',
double_buffer = true,
draw_borders = false,
draw_graph_borders = true,
draw_outline = false,
draw_shades = false,
use_xft = true,
font = 'Inconsolata:size=10',
gap_x = 10,
gap_y = 10,
minimum_height = 5,
minimum_width = 5,
net_avg_samples = 2,
no_buffers = true,
out_to_console = false,
out_to_stderr = false,
extra_newline = false,
own_window = true,
own_window_class = 'Conky',
own_window_type = 'override',
own_window_hints = 'undecorated,below,sticky,skip_taskbar,skip_pager',
own_window_transparent = true,
stippled_borders = 0,
update_interval = 1.0,
uppercase = false,
use_spacer = 'none',
show_graph_scale = false,
show_graph_range = false
}
conky.text = [[

what is your configuration of screens, I guess your second screen is on right or left or up or down to your first screen.
You can create second conky with appropriate alignment & gap_X gap_Y parameters, so that it gets displayed on your second screen.

EDIT: kindly update your thread title (conky inplace of conly).
Sorry for duplicate posts, inplace of editing I choose to go back in w3m buffer and modified my post but it lead to duplicate post.

I already solved the issue.
I often plug in/unplug my external screen so I've bind two keys that disable or enable my external screen using xrandr --off. I just added a custom script that launches/kills conky instance to that binding. I don't need two instances on my screens after some thinking about it.
PS. I've corrected the post title, sorry for the typo. Is there any way to mark topic as solved or I just need to prefix it with [Solved] prefix manually?
