MagicMirror does not start in full screen
-
@drx1984 try this
stop MagicMirror
pm2 stop allthen
cd ~ rm -rf .config/Electronnote the dot in front of config
then restart MagicMirror

@sdetweil
Do you mean under the path execute this command?
like on the picture?
So:
?? -
@sdetweil said in MagicMirror does not start in full screen:
cd MagicMirror
no…
I saidcd ~this means
change to the users home folder
-
@sdetweil ah ok sry, now I’ve done it like this and when I restart the Intel Nuc, the MagicMirror still doesn’t start in full screen.
why is this happening:-(
-
@drx1984 because the title bar is showing, is this thru vnc?
vnc sets its own screen size and doesn’t tell the truth …
not you CAN override in the config.js
in the same group as address addelectronOptions:{width:xxxx, height:yyyy},where xxxx and yyyy are the width and height of the screen
-
@sdetweil said in MagicMirror does not start in full screen:
electronOptions:{width:xxxx, height:yyyy},
The AnyDesk program is installed.
Should I uninstall this?? I broke the tool to get to IntelNuc.can I fix the problem with this entry? and in which line do I add this “electronOptions:{width:xxxx, height:yyyy}” parameter in config.js

as I said, in the same group of properties as the address: property

@sdetweil Sorry, I don’t fully understand you. can you enlighten me?

@sdetweil Can’t you tell me exactly which line?
I have now entered it as shown in the picture but unfortunately it doesn’t work.

@drx1984 in between ANY line in that group… js is a name/value pair, so it doesn’t matter the order…
BUT you have the wrong values in portrait mode…
height is 1920, width is 1080
is it correct on the physical screen?
from the eletron doc
https://www.electronjs.org/docs/latest/api/browser-window new BrowserWindow([options]) options BrowserWindowConstructorOptions (optional) width Integer (optional) - Window's width in pixels. Default is 800. height Integer (optional) - Window's height in pixels. Default is 600. x Integer (optional) - (required if y is used) Window's left offset from screen. Default is to center the window. y Integer (optional) - (required if x is used) Window's top offset from screen. Default is to center the window. useContentSize boolean (optional) - The width and height would be used as web page's size, which means the actual window's size will include window frame's size and be slightly larger. Default is false. center boolean (optional) - Show window in the center of the screen. Default is false. minWidth Integer (optional) - Window's minimum width. Default is 0. minHeight Integer (optional) - Window's minimum height. Default is 0. -
@sdetweil yes, the resolution is as follows under system settings:
The monitor is a 24 inch/full HD and is set to portrait format.
then the values should be correct 1920x1080 right?
-
@drx1984 wider than taller (1920x1080) (w,h) is landscape mode
taller than wider (1080x1920) (w,h) is portrait mode
are you trying to do both at the same time?
landscape on physical screen and portrait over connection?
can’t do that, physical screen wins
-
@sdetweil
Good morning,
So even if I set physical landscape format and restart the system, the MagicMirror doesn’t appear in full screen >> look at the photo I took on my cell phone without Anydesk access.
And I uploaded a video clip to YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gjiYQ21SoKI
And I entered the entry with: electronOptions:{width:xxxx, height:yyyy}:
Where else can the problem be?
Thanks for your help. -
@drx1984 in the electronOptions add at the end
,fullScreen:truenote the leading comma, as this will be after the height:1080
-
@sdetweil Is that what you mean>> electronOptions:{width:1920, height:1080, fullScreen:true}, ?
unfortunately nothing came of it
-
@drx1984 yes…
what OS is this
show results of
lsb_release -a uname -aalso, stop MagicMirror and then delete the .config for Electron as before
then restart MagicMirror
-
@sdetweil Unfortunately I have to leave now sry, I’ll get back to you tomorrow.
There is an Ubuntu 22.04.4 installed on an IntelNuc.I have another YouTube video >you can see how it is briefly in full screen at the start and then the full screen goes away again. Watch the video clip until the end: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5fRf2pJuET8
thanks

Good morning, MagicMirror actually starts when I restart, but I can also start MagicMirror in the terminal with pm2 start.
If I start the MagicMirror myself via the terminal, everything is displayed in full screen, but not when I reboot.
I installed MagicMirror with this script: bash -c “$(curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scripts/master/raspberry.sh)”
Everything works, except the full screen doesn’t work when IntelNuc is restarted.
