Hello
I installed two modules the first is MMM-EyeCandy and the second local MMM-RandomPhoto, it works except that the RandomPhoto image is superimposed on my first module. I move the module by doing bottom_left the RandomPhoto image disappears do you have any idea cordially

I’ve never used RandomPhoto but I use EyeCandy extensively. I’ve never seen this type of behavior with EyeCandy before. nor has anyone ever mentioned this as an issue. With that:

What happens if you put one module on the left and one on the right?

Also, try switching their order in the config.js. Take the one that appears first in the config.js and move it to the last position in the config.js. Will this work? Unknown. I’ve seen modules that affect all others unless they load last, so it’s worth a try.

Hello
I wanted to thank you for answering me.
I resume I have placed the config.js file in the last position, same nothing changes the photo appears when it is in top_center, when I move it to the right or to the left I have a small logo that appears a circle with a triangle in it and no the same image when I move MMM-EyeCandy to the bottom left it works well but my photo in the top center no longer appears, it works when the two modules are in top_center but still superimposed.

I took a look at MMM-RandomPhoto. I see that it was designed to be behind the other modules based on the default “position.”

It appears to me that both modules are working as intended although the result is a bit ugly. EyeCandy was designed for use with a black background

{
	module: 'MMM-RandomPhoto',
	position: 'fullscreen_below',
	config: {
		opacity: 0.3,
		animationSpeed: 500,
		updateInterval: 60,
		url: 'https://unsplash.it/1920/1080/?random'
	}
},
{
    module: "MMM-EyeCandy",
    position: "top_center",
    config: {
        maxWidth: "75%",       // Sizes the images. Retains aspect ratio.
        style: '1',            // Style number or use ownImagePath to override style
        ownImagePath: '',      // ex: 'modules/MMM-EyeCandy/pix/YOUR_PICTURE_NAME.jpg', or internet url to image
    }
},

You can add another config.js entry for EyeCandy and point it towards your image file (See readMe of file) and choose another position other than your first instance. You already have the module so no need to download it again or another module.

Peace!
