Modular Papirus Conky Idea

[AVLinux]

Hartelijk bedankt @ceeslans I will assemble this evening after work..

Well, it's funny how many ways there are to slice these things up. This is a much better networking Icon but I decided to try an up and down orientation..

So with lots of good input from Cees, better alignment of bars, customized home folder for better matching percent visibility, new network Icon(s) and each rc file has a unique window name now. Not quite ready to upload yet I need to fine tune the battery rc on my laptop but ran out of time tonight.

*EDIT.. Gah! Lol I need to get those network arrows centered!

@AVLinux Oh, you upped the size of the conkies to 108x130px, right?
Tried them on my laptop - and although it's easier on the eyes (mostly because of increased fontsize), I do prefer the 'original' size on a 1920x1080 px screen.

@ceeslans

Actually I need to stay on one unscaled machine.. I work on my Desktop 90% of the time and it's a 4K display at Enlightenment's 1.7x scaling. My original upload was from my laptop with a 1920x1080 display. I was quite dismayed that much of the final sizing and aligning I did on my Desktop needed redoing on my laptop so I have been delayed in finishing the final 'base set' and I also got distracted by starting an Obsidian version. The base set will be original size.

If you or anyone else are interested here is the 'base set' of the 'Modulus' Papirus Conky as far as I'm going to take it. It can be considered the starter kit and is now one single 'Modulus' folder containing the assets and a launch script. If you want to change the size or position of the modules or what gets launched you will need to edit the appropriate 'rc' files and the 'modulus' start up script in the Modulus folder. If you want a more sophisticated LUA background version then @ceeslans can hook you up and @asqwerth has a much more detailed weather forecast module available.

Thanks, @AVLinux .

When I have more time, I'll have a look at this final set.

[AVLinux]

Oh no!

It begins again, this time Icon theme agnostic and a bit more classic Enlightenment-y... Early screenie, much to do..

Dotted font used is awesome.

Conky is my main personalization subject. I love it.

Thanks for sharing
