xfce4-genmon-plugin multiple bars

Is there a way to have multiple bars in a single genmon panel item?

eg
echo "<bar>$bar0</bar>"
echo "<bar>$bar1</bar>"

(the above obviously does not work)

Either way, unfortunately, no. Out of curiosity, which version are you using? The GTK2 or GTK3 (3.99.0) version?

It's designed to only have one bar on any given monitor. You can however, add a number of genmons to the panel and have each one display a bar and align them next to each other.

Version is 3.4.0

I'd like to have two bars very next to each other, like eg the cpu graph plugin provides.

Using two separate genmons has too many downsides:
- produces too big of a gap between bars
- creates a bit of an overhead since both bar percentages are gathered sharing much of the same code
- synchronization troubles
