      @bushby32 Just checking but your Pi is set to the proper resolution and size on the desktop outside of MM, correct?

        @wenike Hi Wenike, thanks for the reply! Yes, checked on screen preferences and set to correct resolution, 1920x1080, and as you can see on screenshot 2 and 3, it fills the display as it should on the raspberry pi system. Is there somewhere in the code I need you change to match this? Every guide I have looked at and followed seems to have no problem with the first start up!

        I have tried resetting the pi and reinstalling MM with no luck.

                        2021-02-15-201831_1920x1080_scrot.png

                        I’m not sure .config/electron you are referring to!
