Formatting issue in need of your expertise!

[BayouGuru67]

Ok conkys, I have a bit of an issue here and am asking for your assistance as follows: I have a conky that displays the activity level of my CPU cores and an average of them all n a set of 7 bars arranged into 2 columns, with the average spanning both columns and located below the other 6. The issue is that when an odd-numbered CPU Core frequency drops below a 4-digit number, it will shift to the left, even though I coded it exactly like my "rightconky" which has tables of varying widths that DO stay put, so I am posting this here to get the community's feedback on how I might solve this issue. I have tried this with versions 1.21.7 and 1.21.9, both compiled locally without errors. The conky config is as follows:
