I've noticed that if a conky is running, you cannot right click over areas where there is a conky window. and since that window is hidden, it can be hard to know that's whats going on. the window isn't necessary the size of the displayed conky.

And some of the windows are too large for the conky. That is they need not be that large to display the conky contents. Gotham in my tests is one of them with too large a window. Jerry and I are looking at that.

You can see that window by changing the transparency to "Opaque" in CM, but it sometimes seems to have a mind of its own.

I am done with this development phase for lack of time. If somebody else wants to work on these, please clone the GitHub repo and make a push request if/when you have something systemic like this you can fix.
