<![CDATA[MagicMirror runs in small window after update]]>Hi, I just updated my Magic Mirror. After rebooting the mirror dashboard is no longer running in full screen. It looks like an overlay window without borders which is on top of the desktop.
I did not change anything in my setup and have no clue where to look to fix this.
I checked main.css and everything looks fine.
Does anyone have an idea where this might come from and how to fix it?magicmirror-window.jpg

I didn’t mean to push you. I just checked my home directory. There is no config folder. I don’t really see any other folder that looks like one.

Does anyone have an idea how to get the full fullscreen?

grep version ~/MagicMirror/package.json

The develop branch is a big jump on electron version…

Thank you for the information. I still wonder why the Magic Mirror does not cover the full desktop. Before the latest update, I did not see anything but the Mirror window.

This is what I already tried - and just tried again:

electronOptions:{ x:0, width: 1081, height: 1921, fullscreen: false, kiosk: true }

The problem remains the same. I also added more than one pixel to width and height but it wouldn’t change the result.

electronOptions : { width: 1080, height: 1920 }

However, I have a thin line from the desktop at the right and bottom edge shining through. The electron window does not cover the whole screen. I tried to use fullscreen: true and kiosk: trueand set the width and height to values higher than my display size but it didn’t change anything. Interesting though, when I set x: 1 in electronOptions to offset the window by a pixel, the thin line will disappear on the right side but appears on the left.

Any ideas how to fix this? @sdetweil

Didn’t work.

This is the message I receive:

However, the Magic Mirror window’s overall size remains the same. I would like to show it full screen again so that I don’t see the desktop.
Best, Max
