Hi all. Back after Xmas break. I’m still very new to this and not entirely sure where to begin. Before Xmas I tried downloading the files provided (thanks!) but can’t get it to work. Any chance of a noob walkthrough or a link to somewhere that will tell me how to add the modules and get a working touch calendar? Thanks!

@jvanderen1 this module supports moving modules on notification

@yawns said in IR touch frame:

I picked this up again and checked with “Peau Productions”. This is their positive feedback:

Hello Stefan,
Yes this diagram looks like an ideal smartmirror setup. Usually the monitor is only using the upper half of the mirror. We can certainly get you a custom frame to match but I will need to know your exact Length x Width dimms and your diagonal dimm. I will also need to know how many touch points you would like supported “2,6, 12, 32, 50+” touch points. Once I have this info I can get you a mechanical drawing and a quote. Any other questions, please let me know.
Best regards

Hopefully I find some spare time during christmas break to find some measurements.

that sounds interesting if it is not super expensive i might get this as well as my monitor will be also just a quarter of the mirror

I’m planning on making my sister a magic mirror as a house warming gift, and have been watching videos and reading through the forums to get an understanding of what’s involved. I was hoping give it touch screen but that seemed out of my budget. Then I realized I could use a small touch screen for simple stuff like volume, a keyboard, or to pause and play video, and use a 20" monitor for the main display.

Is this something that has been done before?
If so point me in that direction.
If not, how hard would it be to do?

I have no previous experience with Magic Mirror, Linux. or RPI. So if there is anything out there that is relatively simple, or even better, in a completed state, then awesome. If not, then I’ll go sans touch screen for the time being, until I get a better grasp of this whole process.

Thanks in advance,

Thanks for the modules works well, instructions were to the tee!.

Just to followup on my CSS, the following should center the content pretty well on most setups - I can’t figure out why I have to manually set the height though, but if I don’t the border doesn’t draw around all the text.

This creates something like a “pop-up” in the middle of your screen for the content, which works pretty well for me.

.infoCenter { position: fixed; left: 50%; top: 50%; transform: translate(-50%,-50%); // This centers the box width: 80vw; // set the width to about 80% of the screen height: 20vw; // set the height to about 20% of the screen }

Hi, suddenly the border of my buttons are black. I no longer know whether I have adjusted something. Where can i search? By the way, great module.
