Thanks.

I don't really know yet what I'm doing. Just color changes don't interest me ATM, aiming for good functionality. Figure later we will set up a general post-your-Conky thread.

Sounds good. Then except for the color changes I made the Line 2 code shows the font size changes. That is all that I had to do, no gap or offset changes

MXCoreBlue is real nice. All info not displayed. It cuts off after the process table. Adjusting font size, in this case making it smaller, makes it too small to see on an hdpi monitor. The only way I can see to fix it is to remove some of the information. I can do that and present it, but will desist doing so for other comments.

Not only that, but it also covers the installer icon on the desktop. Can the conky be aligned to the top-right corner?

Of course, a single click with Conky Manager takes care of it. I would rather see the install icon be moved if possible (top center?) so that the screen's balance lower R, upper L) is retained.

I mean by default, not having to drag it. Think about a new user who wants to install MX, they will need to know that the installer is hidden under the conky and they will need to know how to drag the conky to fee the installer... very user-friendly...

No, I understood that. I think if we stay with Gotham, and I'm not convinced that is a good choice, that something should move before the next development version.

by default, MX-gotham was set to align top_left. I actually changed the version that is running by default to align top_middle (last nite was a long nite), but its just too big for a 1024x768 screen.

In GeekyTowerLogo the file path for the conky-harddisk script is wrong. It has an additional "MX-Conky/" that should be deleted and the capital letters in the path need to be followed exactly.
