    I’m looking for a module with which you can change the position and size of modules dynamically. The MMM-ModulePosition has a very similar functionality, but there you need to restart the mirror and rewrite the css file. I also want me to save the new location and size of the modules and the mirror continues to work, does such a module exist at the moment?

        I saw this module, but honestly I could not figure out how it works.

        I don’t really understand where to insert the line “this.sendNotification(CHANGE_POSITIONS_DEFAULTS);” from this module

          @Azazlo some other app (mmm-remotecontrol maybe) has to send it a message to move module x to position y

          here are the available positions

            That’s the point. I need to be able to modify directly with the mouse on the screen, as in the module that I gave as an example. It is very convenient and looks nice, but it does not have a save function without restarting and overwriting the file

                @Azazlo ok, you didn’t say that… no module provides drag/drop positioning of other modules

                maybe you can merge them together

                  :_(
                  MMM-ModulePosition almost perfect, except for the impossibility of making changes without restarting and rewriting the file. Although I would put up with the fact that you need to restart the program, if only it was automatic
