      Hello,
      Since the last update the screen doesn’t have the right size, there is an empty slot on the right and bottom but I don’t change the location of the modules.

              ah, I see
              Did you change something in custom.css or main.css?
              Or is your screen completely offset?
              If you quit MagicMirror and go back to desktop or terminal, is this shifted too?

                @yawns I don’t change the CSS files, and the screen is shifted just in MagicMirror.

                  @vicdilou maybe the displayed screen is shifted to the left? it looks like you have an old monitor no led.
                  you can change the background color in the custom.css to see the edges maybe that helps

                      @chrisfoerg The screen is shifted only with MagicMirror, before the update I didn’t have problème. I’m 100%sure the problem does not come from the screen.

                        @vicdilou to find the problem can you change the background color? black on black is difficult to see where the body tags ends

                            Please check the content of ~/MagicMirror/css/main.css

                            The body part should look like this:

                            body {
                              margin: 60px;
                              position: absolute;
                              height: calc(100% - 120px);
                              width: calc(100% - 120px);
                              background: #000;
                              color: #aaa;
                              font-family: "Roboto Condensed", sans-serif;
                              font-weight: 400;
                              font-size: 2em;
                              line-height: 1.5em;
                              -webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;
                            }
                            

                            To change background-color change background: #000; to background: #FF0000; and refresh your mirror

                              @vicdilou in the file custom.css in the folder ~/MagicMirror/css

                              body {
                              margin: 0px;
                              height: 100%;
                              width: 100%;
                              background-color: red;
                              }

                                just change margin px, hight and width px and be careful to set the same margin px at fullscreen ;)
