I make two progressbar widgets in my rc.lua. Both get placed between the taglist and tasklist. My normal text widgets gets places as intended (to the left of my layoutbox). Nothing i do in r.lua can change where the progressbars are placed. I want them along the other widgets. I attach the relevant rc.lua parts under. Any ideas why just the bars are stubborn?
-- Wibox
-- Create a textbox widget
mytextclock = awful.widget.textclock({align = "right"})
-- wifi
wifiwidget = widget({ type = "textbox" })
vicious.register(wifiwidget, vicious.widgets.wifi, "\"${ssid}\" ${link}% ${rate} MB/s", 10, "wlan0")
-- Battery widget
batwidget = awful.widget.progressbar()
batwidget:set_width(15)
batwidget:set_height(25)
batwidget:set_vertical(true)
batwidget:set_background_color("#494B4F")
batwidget:set_border_color(nil)
batwidget:set_color("#AECF96")
batwidget:set_gradient_colors({ "#AECF96", "#88A175", "#FF5656" })
vicious.register(batwidget, vicious.widgets.bat, "$2", 61, "BAT0")
-- Battery 2 widget
batwidget2 = widget({ type = "textbox" })
vicious.register(batwidget2, vicious.widgets.bat, "battery:$2", 61, "BAT0")

memwidget = awful.widget.progressbar()

Then read it again.

Alright, so apperently you need to reference the ".widget" for it to work. Pretty confusing that it showed up at all without it.

Yes. I didn't look at that code in a while but I think what happens is that the actual widget object is returned by default however the layout of the wibox.widgets does not apply to it so it remains using its default internal layout which is leftright.
