[randomnoise]

Tried this module, even with a default config it doesn’t seem to display any of the actual values, just the titles:

Running Rpi3 Raspian Jesse

@Sean

I just reinstalled MMM-Tool and it is working now. I don’t know why it didn’t work the first time. shrug

@randomnoise only label is displayed, when module is stopped before getting results of script execution of node_helper. Possible suspicious point is…

• module(including your other modules) has error, so front electron halts.

npm start dev, see the browser dev console. If there is no suspicious message(usually red lines), hmmmm…

[Kimzer]

The issue seems pretty straightforward.
If i place it top_center. It works fine.
bottom_right (where i want it) without any other modules there, it displays the text only. No bars etc. If i re-add the module i already have there it doesnt show at all…

@Kimzer that might be related with width vlaue. That might be not bug. I don’t assume how much width user assign to my module. So you could adjust your GOOD view with css by yourself. Give your favorite width or min-width to the module in css.

Anyway, someone could feel embarrassed with this inconvenient approach, I’ll add default min-width value in next commit.
Thanks for your advice.

@Kimzer @Sean

Yup, can confirm it works just fine in top_left… my top left width happens to be manually set to be 480px due to another module I’m running so that’s probably why its happy now.

BTW I forgot to set to RPI, but it actually still worked just fine when set to ATB by default.

@randomnoise screen controlling and measuring temperatures are different between rpi and atb.

[Kimzer]

Probably not a bug at all, may be my custom css that is causing issues.
Tried min-width and width but really didnt fix anything.

[randomnoise]

@Sean I’m not using the screen controls so that’s fair enough. I just compared the temp from MMM-Tools to that from MMM-system stats and yes you’re correct the values are wrong if I set the type to ATB. Forgive my rambling :)

@Kimzer ok, tomorrow i’ll try testing widely and can provide better settings. Sorry for inconvenience of all and thanks for your interesting. After work, I’ll post about that.
