MagicMirror runs in small window after update
-
@sdetweil Hi Sam, CTRL + “-” decreases the size of the modules in the window. 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 -
I just tried to start MM with npm start from the MagicMirror directory. Didn’t work.
This is the message I receive:
magicmirror@2.13.0 start /home/pi/MagicMirror
DISPLAY=“${DISPLAY:=:0}” ./node_modules/.bin/electron js/electron.js -
I was able to almost fix my problem using
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
andkiosk: true
and set the width and height to values higher than my display size but it didn’t change anything. Interesting though, when I setx: 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

@maxheartrate x:0, and width: add one
-
@sdetweil Thank you for your advise, Sam.
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.

@maxheartrate kiosk sets full-screen to true
-
@sdetweil O.k. 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.
-
@maxheartrate good question. Can u tell me the version.
grep version ~/MagicMirror/package.json
The develop branch is a big jump on electron version…

@sdetweil said in MagicMirror runs in small window after update:
grep version ~/MagicMirror/package.json
Hi Sam,
it’s
"version": "2.13.0"
.Best, Max

Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to fix my problem yet. Does anyone have an idea how to get the full fullscreen?
@sdetweil or someone else? Advise would be highly appreciated. Best, Max
