MMM-Flights

yes, the map changes width because of the length of the flight data in the table below, the area inside the map does not change. You can test this with setting mapFontColor: "red", so you see the area points.

But I have to rethink this behavior or provide an option for a fixed width.

Also the map shows even with no traffic and showMap: “ifTraffic”,

will look into this, I did a rewrite of the module so maybe this was lost …

The map changes width depending upon the ac in the area.

Ah, OK, I’ll change the font size down a bit.

But I have to rethink this behavior or provide an option for a fixed width.

Yes, it did work before I applied an update this morning

Thanks for your help.

@lif please NEVER edit the source file. unless you KNOW what you are getting yourself into.

all config should go in config.js
everything in the defaults section can be overridden in config.js

also on forum posts use the code block wrapper for all code and config.
