      I tried to modify the main.css and it didn’t do anything.

          @justjim1220 others noted that you will also have to edit the index.html to add the regions and the main.js

          var updateWrapperStates = function() {
          var positions = [“top_bar”, “top_left”, “top_center”, “top_right”, “upper_third”, “middle_center”, “lower_third”, “bottom_left”, “bottom_center”, “bottom_right”, “bottom_bar”, “fullscreen_above”, “fullscreen_below”];

          which lists all the known regions

              @justjim1220 I’m actually trying to do the exact same thing, but very limited knowledge with css. I’d be curious to see your index.html and main.css files if you get this working as expected. I updated main.js to be aware of the positions for now and am going to dig into creating the separate regions

                Sorry, got sidetracked into doing other stuff

                My investigating showed there are a few places needing changed within MM code to get it to work

                I haven’t given up, just placed it on the back burner for now.

                Likewise with you, if you happen to figure it out before I do, let me know what you did. :winking_face:

                  I’d love to see this - I’ve got a ton of dead space on my MM because of the lack of 5 columns of info.

                    I know the feeling
                    To keep up with the ‘mirror’ effect, I am wanting to surround the middle with a ‘frame’ of modules
                    Kinda like a monopoly game board with the middle or inside the properties being free of any modules to keep the mirror functioning as a mirror

                    Of course I am trying to make one with a 42" tv, rotated vertical, so I will have plenty of room at the top and bottom for more than one row of modules

                    My first idea, was to figure out how to show the modules in a frame around a working TV, without any interference to what is being watched. Which Is what I really want to be able to do!

                      I don’t even really need modules on the sides, I have been paying attention a lot to how most tv I watch, which are movies, they almost always have a black area at the top and bottom of the screen. It’s getting the modules and the tv to display at the same time!

                        You don’t need to create new regions…just make your module width larger…

                        There is no need to create new regions when you can just ‘stack’ your modules and they will move automatically…
