      Are you using a Pi?
      What resolution are you set to?
      Have you made any changes to any MM system files?

        yes i am using a pi2b i’ve tried the custom css with

        body {
           margin: 1px;
          height: calc(100% - 1px);
          width: calc(100% - 1px);
        }
        

        i tried multiple margin sizes and height and width but it never comes down any further than what is in that screen shot

        i have

        disable_overscan=1
        hdmi_group=1
        hdmi_mode=16
        

        and my resolution is forced set to 1920x1080 60hz 16:9 after doing a
        tvservice -d edid

          }

          I believe this should be

          body {
            margin: 1px;
            height: calc(100% - 2px);
            width: calc(100% - 2px);
          }
          

          I don’t know about the other.

              No, that belongs in the custom.css file. You should not be editing the main.css file unless you absolutely know what you are doing. That’s why I asked if you made any changes to the MM system files.

                        Just curious. Have you tried without this?
