multiple modules in a region

If you have a sketch (even with a hand), I may help you.

Is this similar to what you wanted? (DAKBoard style)

.region.top.left {
  width: calc(25% - 60px);
  backdrop-filter: blur(10px) brightness(60%) grayscale(30%) drop-shadow(4px 4px 10px black);
  padding: 20px;
  border-radius: 20px;
  height: calc(100vh - 160px);
}

.region.top.right {
  width: calc(75% - 20px);
}

.region.center {
  display: none;
}

.module.MMM-CalendarExt3 .module-header {
  font-weight: bold;
  font-size: 300%;
  color: white;
  line-height: 100%;
  border-bottom: none;
}

I use only 3 regions. top_left top_right, and fullscreen_below.

this is the dakboard calendar that my wife wants. ive shown here several others (examples of both from dakboard and MM) and she likes this layout the best. i do agree its pretty clean looking. as stated before, it is essentially photos on the left 1/3rd and a calendar on the right 2/3rds in landscape view with some light modules on top of the pictures. im sure youve seen the pic floating around a lot.

ive searched and read a lot on this and thats why i was stepping down the route of trying to get the modules into certain regions then going to try to mode with the css.

heres an idea: can a script be written that runs 2 instances of MM into 1 display at the same time? one being 1/3 of the screen and the other being the rest (or other 2/3rds)? then one instance of MM can run pictures fullscreen and the other can run the calendar full screen as well on its partition?

also, sorry if theres a few different dicussions going on at the same time now. with having to wait for posts to get approved theres a bit of a lag and its probably getting messy keeping thought streams straight now

There is no way to do so.
However, I think mimicking DAKBoard style to MM with some CSS juggling.

I am the one that reviews and approves posts… until you get a reputation of 2 or above…

rep is increases if someone likes your post(s). generally because you contributed something.

@MMRIZE

that looks good and gives me an idea of something to try…

are there any other modules that post pictures to a region instead of full screen?

you can try them…

i spent a lot of time on MMM-ImagesPhotos in fullscreen to get the aspect ratios correct as neither of the built in CSS settings (cover/contain) work properly (imho)

https://github.com/sdetweil/MMM-ImagesPhotos , but you can try it in other positions
