Magicmirror touchscreen tablet dashboard

@frentemorao he uses the MMM-Pages module which creates logical pages by showing and hiding modules in groups.

@sdetweil thanks for the explanation but I am afraid it’s not the answer I was waiting for…

I understood he touches the screen to move between pages. Am I right?

@frentemorao I doubt it, pages will cycle thru, mmm-carousel can too.
I haven’t seen a module that does touch screen swipe. I have seen swipe with additional sensors

here’s a talk about mouse gestures in browsers

Hi,
you can use MMM-Touch to react to swipes. I am not sure if it works with pages but it does with the MMM-ProfileControl.

@wishmaster270 very cool…

@wishmaster270 do you think this solution will work in a tablet considering the server is in an external rpi?

wishmaster270

@frentemorao Did not test that. I have it running on the same Pi in my case. But as MMM-Touch only sends notifications to other modules I do not see a reason why it shouldn’t.

@wishmaster270 I can confirm you that it does work in an Android tablet !!!
Now I have to figure out how it interacts with Pages (and MMM-Remote-Control)
