MMM-WunderGround24Hours: How to set transparent background?

[Unknown]

@doubleT: Thx. “background: none;” is working in the main.css file. I deleted the whole “background: #000;” entry which was not working…

I don’t understand why my /home/pi/MagicMirror/css/custom.css is not working :-(

@Mykle1 said in MMM-WunderGround24Hours: How to set transparent background?:

html {
background: none;
}

still not working with modifikation in custom.css… If I change it in Main.css in the module it self it works fine.

pi@MagicMirror2:/home/pi/MagicMirror/css# cat custom.css

The module’s css file is the last one to be called so its values override that of the custom.css. I should have mentioned that. You can try

body, html {
	background: none !important;
}

Changing settings of items not within the module is bad practice imho and shouldn’t be done (read: setting the main background when the module’s css should only do stuff within the module itself), but customizing within the module is also bad practice. And lastly, using !important is also not best practice, but in this case, I think we need to use it.

Edit: Disregard that. I just saw that it’s an iframe.
You have to change the module’s main.css. Usually, you cannot set css values in the content of the iframe (though I’m not 100% sure in this case, where it’s both within the same domain) without some jQuery and I guess you don’t want to build a module just to style another module. ;)
