Does not work in "System Tray" of lxpanel
Within lxpanel 0.8.2 (Lubuntu 16.04), the indicator-sysmonitor does not work correctly inside the "System Tray" plugin box -- a blank space is shown instead of the desired output. Other apps e.g. skype, indicator-cpufreq, nm-applet etc. display correctly. However, if instead of the "System Tray", the "Indicator Applets" is used, indicator-sysmonitor works fine (as a sanity check). Is it possible to fix it to make it cooperate with "System Tray"?

This is designed for app indicator supported desktops hence why it works with the indicator applet.
If you look at the budgie file you can see how I adapted this for the panel based budgie desktop.
I expect you could do something similar for lxpanel.
Happy to accept patches I.e. a lxpanel type implementation
@sidosoft I just tested the latest version of the indicator in Lubuntu 18.04 and all is good. I have not tested with Lubuntu 16.04 but given it will be out of support in April of 2019, maybe give 18.04 a shot.
