The MX-17 conkies
Re: The MX-17 conkies
We have four Infini fonts in the Asq conky, but the otf Infini Regular here: https://www.fontsquirrel.com/fonts/infini
seems to have full glyph support. Perhaps if we try that font?
Whoops, never mind, it's the same exact font. I wonder if we can find a similar decorative font with full Unicode support.

Re: The MX-17 conkies
Maybe, hard to tell, thanks.
ATM I am looking at the Roboto font family (fav: Roboto-Light), which covers Latin alphabets as well as Greek and Russian.

You can look at samples of what this site thinks are similar fonts here: https://www.stockio.com/free-font/infini

Re: The MX-17 conkies
Not by default b/c not really appropriate for much of the MX audience, but you can select it for yourself. See the corrected script I posted earlier in this thread.

Re: The MX-17 conkies
I've been working on a default conky that would resist as many changes as possible, including the ones that anti brought up earlier. Here is a possibility that only has one word to translate: the day of the week. I use the Roboto-Light font that covers Latin, Greek and Cyrillic alphabets (maybe more) and have tried to leave room for long weekday names.
What do you think of this direction? Never mind colors...

Re: The MX-17 conkies
Maybe Fira Sans from Google Fonts supports all the other locales out of the box. You'd think they would make sure of that.
But Roboto looks good, too. It's great that everything else is so good that we only have to nitpick fine details like this.

Re: The MX-17 conkies
In Beta2, the Conky can't dispaly the exact Chinese fonts:
Re: The MX-17 conkies
Thank you. Can you please try opening the script (launch Conky Manager, highlight the active conky, click on the pencil icon) and do this:
1) use Search > Replace to change all "Infini" to "wqy-microhei"
2) change the line "override_utf8_locale no" to "override_utf8_locale yes"
Save and let us know if that works. Thanks.

Re: The MX-17 conkies
I know Conky is powerful but it's hard to read in Chinese environment. Can he did as another software 'variety ' did to show some quotes on the screen?
