MMM-Carousel Pagination Icons

BerkSmash1984

@sdetweil Yup!

That is correct, I have 10 unique pages on my MM display. Happy to share more info of my config if anyone needs it.

I did share a lot of info on my display (some small things have changed since then) in my post below:

Hello ,
By making a small modification, I colored each icon with a different color.

Line 588 of MMM-carousel.js, I removed the Style.

label.innerHTML = “<i class='”+Object.values(this.config.icons)[i]+“>”;

I copied it into each icon line of config.js.

icons: {
1: “fa-solid fa-sun’ style=‘color: #ffff00;’”,
2: “fa-solid fa-house-flood-water’ style=‘color: #718fea;’”,
3: “fa-solid fa-triangle-exclamation’ style=‘color: #0099ff;’”,
4: “fa-solid fa-gas-pump’ style=‘color: #ff0000;’”,
5: “fa-solid fa-calendar-days’ style=‘color: #ffcc00;’”,
6: “fa-solid fa-person-walking-luggage’ style=‘color: #00cccc;’”,
7: “fa-brands fa-spotify’ style=‘color: #009933;’”,
8: “fa-solid fa-person-hiking’ style=‘color: #ffffff;’”,
9: “fa-solid fa-video’ style=‘color: #cc00ff;’”,
10: “fa-brands fa-raspberry-pi’ style=‘color: #ff0000;’”,
11: “fa-solid fa-umbrella’ style=‘color: #999999;’”,
12: “fa-solid fa-image-portrait’ style=‘color: #ff6600;’”
},

@Philip-0 you could do the same in css.

Hi,
I also use pages and page indicator with 7 pages and have successfully replaced the circles with colored icons as described above, thank you for that!!

Is there a way to highlight the icons or make them a little bigger, like with the hollow and solid circles, so you can see which page you are on?

thx

@J2FK yes, somehow wit CSS… maybe they change styles when selected…

use the developers window (see second slink in my signature below)

looking in the dev window when active each icon gets the class

indicator

applied

the default style is (in MMM-page-indicator.css)

.MMM-page-indicator .indicator {
    padding: 0 5px;
    margin: 0;
    font-size: 0.5em;
 }

so you would put this in css/custom.css and change it as you want/need

I tried fiddling with this , but the override for the icon is causing trouble.
