MMM-ValuesByNotification, CSS Advice...

BKeyport

CSS in custom.css is exactly as you did, with the exception of having the overall display “inline-flex” with other modules to have the top bar fill horizontally rather than vertically.

Here’s my config as present.

	{
			module: "MMM-ValuesByNotification", // https://github.com/Tom-Hirschberger/MMM-ValuesByNotification
			position: "top_bar",
			config: {
				animationSpeed: 0,
				updateInterval: 15,
				groupPositions: "e",
				itemPositions: "e", 
				reuseCount: 99,
				transformerFunctions: {
					degToCompass: (num) => {
						val = ((num/22.5)+.5) | 0;
						arr = ["N","NNE","NE","ENE","E","ESE", "SE", "SSE","S","SSW","SW","WSW","W","WNW","NW","NNW"];
						res = arr[(val % 16)];
						return res;
					},
				},
				groups: [
					{
						items: [
							{
								notification: "WeatherLink",
								classes: "col1",
								values: [
									{
										valueTitle: "Temperature Outdoors",
										valueUnit: "°",
										jsonpath: "data.conditions[0].temp",
										valueFormat: "Number(${value}).toFixed(2)",
									},
								],
							},
							{
								notification: "TempRoom",
								classes: "col1",
								values: [
									{
										valueTitle: "My Office Temperature",
										valueUnit: "°",
										jsonpath: "temperature_f",
										valueFormat: "Number(${value}).toFixed(2)",
									},
								],
							},
							{
								notification: "TempCase",
								classes: "col1", 
								values: [
									{
										valueTitle: "CPU Case Temperature",
										valueUnit: "°",
										jsonpath: "temperature_f",
										valueFormat: "Number(${value}).toFixed(2)",
									},
								],
							},
							{
								notification: "WeatherLink",
								classes: "col1",
								values: [
									{
										valueTitle: "Utility Room Temperature",
										valueUnit: "°",
										jsonpath: "data.conditions[1].temp_in",
										valueFormat: "Number(${value}).toFixed(2)",
									},
								],
							},
							{
								notification: "WeatherLink",
								classes: "col2",
								values: [
									{
										valueTitle: "Indoor Humidity",
										valueUnit: "%",
										jsonpath: "data.conditions[1].hum_in",
									},
									{
										valueTitle: "Outdoor Humidity",
										valueUnit: "%",
										jsonpath: "data.conditions[0].hum",
									},
									{
										valueTitle: "Wind Speed",
										valueUnit: "MPH",
										jsonpath: "data.conditions[0].wind_speed_last",
										unitSpace: true,
									},
									{
										valueTitle: "Wind Direction",
										jsonpath: "data.conditions[0].wind_dir_last",
										valueTransformers: ["degToCompass"],
									},
								]
							},
						],
					},
				],
			},
		},

@BKeyport Hi,

thank you for the config. There was a main difference in yours and mine. You added the last four values in one item, i had single items.
There was a problem with the column definitions in you config, but i think i figured the things out.
Its a little bit messy but i think it will work:

custom.css

.MMM-ValuesByNotification{
  width: 700px;
}

.MMM-ValuesByNotification .vbn .groupWrapper {
  border-radius: 0px;
  border-style: none;
}

.MMM-ValuesByNotification .vbn .itemsWrapper {
  flex-direction: row;
  flex-wrap: wrap;
  column-gap: 30px;
  justify-content: space-around;
}

.MMM-ValuesByNotification .vbn .itemWrapper {
  flex-direction: row;
  justify-content: unset;
}

.MMM-ValuesByNotification .vbn .valueWrapper {
  flex-direction: row;
  column-gap: 10px;
  justify-content: unset;
}

.MMM-ValuesByNotification .vbn .col1 .valueWrapper {
  min-width: 290px;
}

.MMM-ValuesByNotification .vbn .col2 .valueWrapper {
  min-width: 260px;
}

.MMM-ValuesByNotification .vbn .wrap1 {
  justify-content: flex-start;
}

.MMM-ValuesByNotification .vbn .valueTitle {
  text-align: left;
}

.MMM-ValuesByNotification .vbn .col1 .valueTitle {
  min-width: 210px;
}

.MMM-ValuesByNotification .vbn .col2 .valueTitle {
  min-width: 200px;
}

config.js:

{
	module: "MMM-ValuesByNotification", // https://github.com/Tom-Hirschberger/MMM-ValuesByNotification
	position: "top_center",
	config: {
		animationSpeed: 0,
		updateInterval: 15,
		groupPositions: "e",
		itemPositions: "e", 
		reuseCount: 99,
		transformerFunctions: {
			degToCompass: (num) => {
				val = ((num/22.5)+.5) | 0;
				arr = ["N","NNE","NE","ENE","E","ESE", "SE", "SSE","S","SSW","SW","WSW","W","WNW","NW","NNW"];
				res = arr[(val % 16)];
				return res;
			},
		},
		groups: [
			{
				items: [
					{
						notification: "WeatherLink",
						classes: "col1",
						values: [
							{
								valueTitle: "Temperature Outdoors",
								valueUnit: "°",
								jsonpath: "data.conditions[0].temp",
								valueFormat: "Number(${value}).toFixed(2)",
							},
						],
					},
					{
						notification: "TempRoom",
						classes: "col2",
						values: [
							{
								valueTitle: "My Office Temperature",
								valueUnit: "°",
								jsonpath: "temperature_f",
								valueFormat: "Number(${value}).toFixed(2)",
							},
						],
					},
					{
						notification: "TempCase",
						classes: "col1", 
						values: [
							{
								valueTitle: "CPU Case Temperature",
								valueUnit: "°",
								jsonpath: "temperature_f",
								valueFormat: "Number(${value}).toFixed(2)",
							},
						],
					},
					{
						notification: "WeatherLink",
						classes: "col2",
						values: [
							{
								valueTitle: "Utility Room Temperature",
								valueUnit: "°",
								jsonpath: "data.conditions[1].temp_in",
								valueFormat: "Number(${value}).toFixed(2)",
							},
						],
					},
					{
						notification: "WeatherLink",
						classes: "col1",
						values: [
							{
								valueTitle: "Indoor Humidity",
								valueUnit: "%",
								jsonpath: "data.conditions[1].hum_in",
							},
						]
					},
					{
						notification: "WeatherLink",
						classes: "col2",
						values: [
							{
								valueTitle: "Outdoor Humidity",
								valueUnit: "%",
								jsonpath: "data.conditions[0].hum",
							},
						]
					},
					{
						notification: "WeatherLink",
						classes: "col1",
						values: [
							{
								valueTitle: "Wind Speed",
								valueUnit: "MPH",
								jsonpath: "data.conditions[0].wind_speed_last",
								unitSpace: true,
							}
						]
					},
					{
						notification: "WeatherLink",
						classes: "col2",
						values: [
							{
								valueTitle: "Wind Direction",
								jsonpath: "data.conditions[0].wind_dir_last",
								valueTransformers: ["degToCompass"],
							},
						]
					},
				],
			},
		],
	},
}

Edit: Maybe i have time to search for an easier solution at the weekend.

@wishmaster270 Getting closer, now just out of order, but much better organized.

It is also not sharing the top bar the way I like on the test screen, haven’t had time to go check the real display.

@BKeyport Hi and sorry, my fault.
I added the items in the wrong order to the group.

The main idea is that all items are in a row. Every time the space on the right side is not enough to display the next item a new line starts.
As the maximum width of the module is set to 700px only two items fit in a row. Thats why we get two columns here but the order of the items in the config matters.

In the config i additionally add the classes col1 and col2 to the items. This way i can set the width of the titles in the first column different to the ones of the second column.

I re-arranged the items to the structure of the initial post and increased the width of the titles a little bit:

{
	module: "MMM-ValuesByNotification", // https://github.com/Tom-Hirschberger/MMM-ValuesByNotification
	position: "top_center",

		groupPositions: "e",
		itemPositions: "e", 
		reuseCount: 99,
		transformerFunctions: {
			degToCompass: (num) => {
				val = ((num/22.5)+.5) | 0;
				arr = ["N","NNE","NE","ENE","E","ESE", "SE", "SSE","S","SSW","SW","WSW","W","WNW","NW","NNW"];
				res = arr[(val % 16)];
				return res;
			},
		},
		groups: [
			{
				items: [
					{
						notification: "WeatherLink",

@wishmaster270 Great start, now to adjust to fit… 🤣

Edit: here I am adjusting it and trying to figure out why it wouldn’t move up to the bar, then I realized, you had it in Top Center. 😞😞😞😞😖😖😖😖
