Possible conflict with Little Snitch menu bar display

[boardhead]

I don't know if this is a MenuMeters issue or a Little Snitch issue or a real-estate problem, but the MenuMeters doesn't display in the menu bar if the Little Snitch status is also shown in the menu bar.

MacBook M4 Pro, MacOS 15.4.1

It seems to be a real-estate problem. MenuMeters by itself doesn't work displaying CPU Percentage or Graph (unless the Graph width is set to the minimum). Vertical bar and Horizontal bar work do work, but there doesn't seem to be enough room for anything else.

I wonder if this is due to limitations from the menu bar cutout for the camera.

Thanks for the comments. Yes it's due to the camera cutout. In fact, even on a regular Mac with the menubar filling the entirety of the top of the screen, menu items disappear if you put too many of them. This is not just for my MenuMeters.

Thanks for your response. With 14 cores, the CPU display takes up a lot of space. I prefer the vertical bars, but would enjoy an option to make them a bit narrower and closer together so it doesn't take as much room in the menu bar.

Thanks for your consideration.

For an example, here are the normal and my suggestion for narrow vertical bars:

Those last pictures were from my old Mac with an older version of MenuMeters. Here is the current version on my new MacBook Pro, and my suggestion to make it narrower
