Question
I want to increase the background(drawn by the lua script using conky_window.height) to occupy the entire screen height.
Tried
- Changing
minimum_sizehas no effect - Adding lines at the botto has no effect, see https://i.stack.imgur.com/1aP3O.jpg
Fix
Turns out that conky_window.height used by the lua script is preserved between conky restarts. Logging out and back in resolves this issue. Changing minimum_size works.
