conky

I am currently running Conky to display some text on my background on the far right of the screen. The window is probably 200 pixels wide.

Is it possible that when I maximize a window, there is some setting to prevent the window from completely maximizing? I have been manually adjusting the window size up until now.

Eg. My resolution is 1024 x 800 but when I maximize any window it should only maximize up to 824 x 800...

Thanks!
