Memory effect with MM2

@schlachtkreuzer6 you could create a class and add this to the body where the margin is different than the basic 60px and toggle the class to the body every 6 hours or so

@strawberry-3.141 yeah but i´m a css noob. maybe you can explain that a little? many thanks!

@schlachtkreuzer6

MMM-Anti-Screen-Burn-In.css

.MMM-Anti-Screen-Burn-In {
    margin: 55px 55px 65px 65px; /*this would shift it 5 pixels higher and 5 pixels to the right side than the standard of 60px on each side*/
}

MMM-Anti-Screen-Burn-In.js

start: function(){
    setInterval(() => {
        document.querySelector("body").classList.toggle("MMM-Anti-Screen-Burn-In");
    }, 6 * 60 * 60 * 1000); // every 6 hours
},

getStyles: function(){
    return ["MMM-Anti-Screen-Burn-In.css"];
}

@strawberry-3.141 Hi. This is exactly what I need. However, I dont know how to proceed with the information. Yes, I made the .css and .js file and put them in a new folder inside the module folder, but how do I then “activate” this? Could someone be so kind and explain step by step how to make this work?

Sorry for not knowing this I presume is quite basic, but so far I only installed ready made modules :)

Thanks

@strawberry-3.141 I tried to get your class into my MM but I don’t know where to put the .css and .js files and how to toggle them.

@wladek you add the css file to your module folder… and then modify your module.js code per the instructions above to load the css, and the timer code to invoke the other css…

you could also make a complete new module with a little more code…

make a folder

MM/modules/MMM-Anti-Screen-Burn-In

put the css file in that folder
create a new file in that folder

MMM-Anti-Screen-Burn-In.js

Module.register("MMM-Anti-Screen-Burn-In", {
start: function(){
    setInterval(() => {
        document.querySelector("body").classList.toggle("MMM-Anti-Screen-Burn-In");
    }, 6 * 60 * 60 * 1000); // every 6 hours
},

getStyles: function(){
    return ["MMM-Anti-Screen-Burn-In.css"];
},
getDom: function(){
  var wrapper = document.createElement("div");
  return wrapper
}
})

and the module to config.js

{
   module: "MMM-Anti-Screen-Burn-In",
   position: middle
}

@sdetweil Tried that before, somehow works now though, thanks!
Only problem I have now is that the module displays two line of text right across the rest of my modules:

MMM-Anti-Screen-Burn-In
module_8_MMM-Anti-Screen-Burn-In

I didn’t add any text to the .js or .css file tho and I can’t figure out how to get rid of it.

@wladek oops… if no getDom(), MM puts out some content

replace the js file with this

Module.register("MMM-Anti-Screen-Burn-In", {
start: function(){
    setInterval(() => {
        document.querySelector("body").classList.toggle("MMM-Anti-Screen-Burn-In");
    }, 6 * 60 * 60 * 1000); // every 6 hours
},

getStyles: function(){
    return ["MMM-Anti-Screen-Burn-In.css"];
},
getDom: function(){
  var wrapper = document.createElement("div");
  return wrapper
}
})
