      Well that brought back the screen I have been stuck on, (that does not update)., I think it is the comic from april 3rd 2025, and now it is scrunched up at the top of my screen instead of filling the screen.
      Too weird how that one line does that.

      .MMM-CalvinAndHobbes .module-content {
              Margin-top: 10px;
              Margin-left: 10px;
              max-width: 1810px;
              max-height: 1025px;
              width: 1810px;
              height: 1025px;
              overflow: hidden;
      }
      
      #cahcomiccontent {
              width: 1810px;
              height: 1025px;
      }
      

      Is what I have had in my custom.css for a long time to show the comic full screen.
      That took a lot of tweaking to get just right.

      Slow learner. But trying anyways.

          That is ok, really.
          I am burnt out too trying to get it up and running myself.
          I am thinking unless someone else wants to put a bunch of time in to figuring out what changed. I am done with this one.
          I do appreciate the time you have invested in trying to figure it out…
          Thank you very much for your help…
          I will mark it resolved.

              Thank you so very much for your work.
              I did have to restore the original css file from the original builder of this module.
              So I could get the full screen to work. Other wise it works so great now.
              My wife is very pleased.
              Thank you again for your great work…

                hm, did I fork from the wrong repo?

                If you share a link to the original file you mentioned I can update it on my fork.

                  No you did not fork from the wrong repo, someone merged the two repo’s so they where the same I have the full original that i backed up the files to my nas drive.
                  I do not know how to send them to you or even share them. Not sure why the css was changed either. If it is not to technical I could try to load it somewhere on here for you…

                    you could publish the content of the file here as text using a code block

                      The original cahcomic.css contains only this.
                      Hope this helps you. I am not very good with all this code stuff.
                      Mainly I do it through trial and error.

                      /* The basic container */
                      .cahcomiccontainer {
                          overflow: hidden;
                      
                          /* To make the height of the container exact. */
                          -webkit-box-sizing: border-box;
                          -moz-box-sizing: border-box;
                          box-sizing: border-box;
                      }
                      #cahcomiccontent {
                        white-space: nowrap;
                        position: relative;
                        overflow: hidden;    /* Required to make ellipsis work */
                        text-overflow: clip;
                        
                        top: 0%;
                        
                        -webkit-transition: top 3s, height 3s;
                        -moz-transition: top 3s, height 3s;
                        transition: top 3s, height 3s;
                      }
