[SOLVED] Conky Disappears!

Check it.  I'll start conky, left click in irssi, then left click anywhere on my desktop.  Then, conky disappears!  It still running ofcourse..

background no
own_window yes
own_window_transparent yes
own_window_type desktop
double_buffer yes
update_interval 1

use_xft yes
xftfont glisp:size=8
xftalpha 0.5

border_margin 2
border_width 2
alignment bottom_right
gap_x 2
gap_y 2

TEXT
${color #606060}${time} | ${color #606060}${battery} | ${color #606060}${wireless_link_bar wlan0}

Maybe it's something in my config?

Thanks!

//Changing own_window_type to root, and adding own_window_hints undecorate,sticky seems to work!

Re: [SOLVED] Conky Disappears!

I was going to suggest adding

own_window_hints undecorated,below,sticky,skip_taskbar,skip_pager

but I see that you've already solved it.

With own_window_hints, you should be able to leave own_window_type as "desktop".
