2 modules side by side

sdetweil

@GodSmackedOrange I just replied to your post in discord about the same topic.

there’s no configuration way to do this You may be able to do it with CSS by changing the layout of the region the modules are in top center to display: flex, flexdirection:leftright

you can try this In the developers window by pressing ctrl- alt-i on the magicmirror keyboard
and selecting the elements tab to view the web page contents structured AKA the Dom.

if u select an element you can change its properties on the right hand side top box so that’s where you could apply display flex

@sdetweil
Unfortunately override display:flex into .container is not so easy. Because, MM’s hide/show mechanism depends on container’s display value (none/block) and it is hard-coded in the HTML tag. (I think it would be a bad legacy approach to be fixed in some day.)

Anyway, without that overriding, It is possible anyhow limitedly.


.region.top.center .container .module {
  float: left;
  max-width: 32%;
}

and I put 3 modules (2 clocks, 1 calendar) in top_center region.

@MMRIZE Thats not put the side to side but it looks like they are both squished up together, I’m assuming because that top_center is only a thin strip,

anyway to make it wider?

@MMRIZE Never Mind, I’ve got it looking kinda of right now, I have added 2 more lists, so now I have travel time, list1, list 2 and list 3, only thing left is maybe if I could add some padding between them?

@GodSmackedOrange well center is the center region,

top is across all left/center/right

@sdetweil @MMRIZE

Got it guys,

So I have MMM-GoogleTravelTimes and 3x MMM-AnyLists all in the top_center,

I used the following code from MMRIZE and added a margin to creating padding between modules, code below -

.region.top.center .container .module {
float: left;
max-width: 32%;
margin: 0 50px;
}

Thanks guys!!

I tried this along with another post and I get the same thing. The two weather modules go next to each other, but they end up in the same spot. The one module isn’t at the same hieght as the other.

Just a FYI, it may also work thusly:

/* adjust modules to display side by side */
.MMM-ValuesByNotification, .MMM-OpenWeatherForecast {
	display: inline-flex;
	margin-right: 5px;
	margin-left: 5px;
}

the catch is that you have to have the modules in your config in the exact order you do in this css entry.
