MagicMirror does not start in full screen

drx1984

Hello everyone, can someone tell me why the MagicMirror only shows half of the screen after a restart and not the full screen?
If I close MagicMirror manually and start it again via the terminal, it doesn’t appear correctly in full screen, but when I restart the PC (IntelNuc).
The image orientation would be portrait format, I set everything to portrait format under Ubuntu screen settings.

MagicMirror in portrait format:

and this is what it looks like in landscape format > the MagicMirror is not in full screen either:

Can someone help me with that?
Thanks

@drx1984 sadly it looks perfect.

do this
edit

~/MagicMirror/installers/mm.sh

insert a new line 2

sleep 10

then reboot

sdetweil

@drx1984 try this

stop MagicMirror

pm2 stop all

then

 cd ~
rm  -rf .config/Electron

note the dot in front of config

then restart MagicMirror

drx1984

@sdetweil

@sdetweil said in MagicMirror does not start in full screen:

cd MagicMirror

no…
I said

cd ~

this means

change to the users home folder

@sdetweil ah ok sry, now I’ve done it like this and when I restart the Intel Nuc, the MagicMirror still doesn’t start in full screen.

why is this happening:-(

sdetweil

@drx1984 because the title bar is showing, is this thru vnc?

vnc sets its own screen size and doesn’t tell the truth …

not you CAN override in the config.js
in the same group as address add

electronOptions:{width:xxxx, height:yyyy},

where xxxx and yyyy are the width and height of the screen

@sdetweil said in MagicMirror does not start in full screen:

electronOptions:{width:xxxx, height:yyyy},

The AnyDesk program is installed.
Should I uninstall this?? I broke the tool to get to IntelNuc.

can I fix the problem with this entry? and in which line do I add this “electronOptions:{width:xxxx, height:yyyy}” parameter in config.js
