Description Back to a favourite conky, if anyone knows how to make a white border around the area by the dock, please let me know.

The new Alcest album is amazing.

I hear that, once you find a conky that does it for you its hard to change it up.

You can create rounded corners in gimp with the rectangle selection tool. When you make a selection then you can adjust it from the toolbox window. It has a "rounded corners" option which when you select will allow you to edit the radius. You can also then readjust or fine-tune the selection's size and position too with the size/placement values. If you also add fuzziness the selection will seem to be fading-out at the edges.

I'd just make awn flat with that grey color non-transparent, with corner radius 0 and a black semi-transparent inner-border and a completely transparent outer border and highlights.

Uhm and why you don't modify the theme to add the white border?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

Dobbie03 In reply to alecive [2012-01-04 17:12:10 +0000 UTC]

Because the theme is set to transparent.

Mmm but can't you add a white border anyway?

Dobbie03 In reply to alecive [2012-01-06 10:32:56 +0000 UTC]

I could but I like it completely transparent. I eventually worked out how to do it anyway.

What else is there. Your setup looks pretty nice.

OS, icon set, etc?

Thanks mate, I am using:
AWN as my dock
Faenza as my icon set, and the customised icons in AWN are Token.
Elementary GTK (as usual) as my theme
and two instances of conky. That is about it.
