@Socrates ok, don’t see the effect and don’t know what glassy means

[Socrates]

I will further tweak the look of the layer so to make it look smart and classy

Look at the calendar items on the left hand side of the screenshot for reminders and appointments, and national holidays, also ecobee module. I just added the glassy effect on the items that are hard to read

@Socrates does that mean the blur box?

[sdetweil]

@sdetweil ok, this is my screen with pages enabled

the date is completely washed out top left. above the time

using MMM-ImagesPhotos with blur(8) and fill

the unblurred section is the photo resized to keep aspect ratio consistent
(not cover or contain)
so it changes with every image

[sdetweil]

@Socrates sometimes the blur is top and bottom
