Need help resizing in vertical orientation

@matthewlawson3

Hmm. I have 10 entries in the calendar with a total of 40 characters per line allowed. And clock is centered at the top with top center position whereas my calendar and MMM TOOLS are both set to top left with calendar below MMM TOOLS. Maybe all that is doing something. Idk.

Maybe I need to uninstall and and use git clone to reinstall MMM TOOLS and see what happens then.

@sdetweil how do I reduce MMM TOOLS margin value?

[sdetweil]

@matthewlawson3 is it the tools margin or the mirror margin?

u can reduce the mirror margin, by changing the body margins from 60px to something smaller (even 0, altho that will allow the module content to be RIGHT against the edge)

whatever u change it to, you also have to adjust the fullscreen definition
it has 120px, which is 2 times 60 (top & bottom, or left and right)
this should be a calculation in my opinion… but I haven’t added it to any pull request

u can reset this in custom.css

@Matthewlawson3
edit the MMM-Tools/MMM-Tools.css and add in the .Tools section at the top

background-color: blue

like this

.Tools {
  display: flex;
  flex-direction: column;
  justify-content: flex-start;
  font-size:0.5em;
  line-height:1em;
  color:#EEE; 
  background-color: blue;
}

now you can see its space consumption

the left space is border, the top space is border and top bar I think
