Thank you, but there are many other system monitoring widgets out there, this is supposed to be only for network monitoring.

I understand, but neither of the other widgets don't fit as well as yours on a panel.

I like it. In 1.1 there is a font scaling option. Thank you.

A couple of notes:
1. Program bar, system bar, objects are too wide, even if I do not show the arrows and units. Would prefer to fit this in a single "slot," and a somewhat smaller font and less space would do it. Do not need units like "Kib" --"K" is enough.
2. System bar object is misplaced, over-painting the one to its right.

I fixed some layout problems, could you update to version 1.1 and check again?

See no change, no font size option. Are you sure the posted 1.1 file is really the new one?

Yes, it's the correct version. It's probably a caching problem, try logging in again.

Built it from GIT. Got new options.

Font option has no effect on system tray or panels.
System tray placement still in error.
Again, B,K,M,G are sufficient.

After reboot and obviously new log in, there is still no change, no font option.

Could you please provide some screenshots, plus I don't know what you mean by "slot".

Report

How do I attach it?

I mean slot is a square area for single-icon.

You can't, either upload it somewhere or send me an email to hessijames at gmail.

If you could make this grab the actual bandwidth used by the network from the router running dd-wrt or tomato, that would be great.

I don't have a router running dd-wrt or tomato, so I wouldn't know how to test it.
