Conky: Double monitor - different sizes - gap_y incorrectly

Created on 18 Jun 2015  ·  3Comments  ·  Source: brndnmtthws/conky

Hi,

I have two monitors, one in vertical with height of 1280, one normal with height of 1024.

When I set conky to show in that monitor, gap_x works as expected, gap_y no.

It seems that gap_y takes care of the first one monitor (height 1024).. so the result is more padding than expected.

Here I set gap_y = 20

The problem does not occur only if I run conky from a terminal that's placed in the 1024h.

If move terminal on the vertical one 1280h (where gap_x refers to), everything is right.

Hi friends. To start things off, this issue is with an old pre.1.10 config.

I tested this issue with (new) default config on the following layouts:

2018-08-29-161554_555x446_scrot

The new default config contains 50+ settings. The important settings are alignment = 'top_left', gap_x = 5, and gap_y = 60. I added xinerama_head on top of this config with either 0 or 1.

Everything looks fine on my end.

The linked PR above appears to be related and was merged in Dec 4, 2015. That's when this issue could had been closed... roughly 5 months 16 days later. Since that didn't happen, I will be closing this issue now instead... roughly 3 years 3 months later. Cheers! :blush:

I'm going to link this issue up with #173, since it appears to be related.

3 years 2 months passed. Can you determine if you're still having this problem today on 1.10.8 or 1.10.9_pre? The older versions are not trustworthy. Thank you. Possibly resolved by #173's PR.
