More cool contributions from @Mykle1 !! Thank you for providing these modules. Really appreciate the time and effort.

@Mykle1 Here you go!

@sonicgoose Really like that you posted your experiments. I think that’s a great way to learn. What would you do differently the second time around?

@sonicgoose said in First attempt...:

Second, I’d fully disassemble the display, taking the LCD controller and power circuitboard out of their metal housing, to decrease bulk and weight.

This is super useful, thanks for all the details. I’ve been going back and forth about whether I should pull about the display, for the same reasons. The monitor I’m using would become lighter and smaller but I’d also have to deal with the LCD controller and other cables.

Was also waffling about doing mirrored film versus glass. Might go for glass even with v1.0.

Really appreciate it, thank you.

@Mykle1 Thanks for pointing out your css file. I mucked around in it quite a bit. Changing the margin settings did not, unfortunately, seem to change the effect very much. I was able to make it overlap with a module above it, like you pointed out. I tried negative numbers, like the examples in the comments. I ended up hiding the moon image in MMM-Lunartic, setting display: none; in the css file, but using it to display the (very cool) data about the current phase of the moon and more. I am using mmm-moon-phases to display the image of the moon. This ends up with the proper “tightness” for the moon image. (Again, this is just one person’s aesthetic change.) Thanks for making both the module, the MMM-Lunartic.js and .css files so accessible. It’s been super fun tweaking the display.

@lpgjg It looks like the MMM-ISS module depends on the NASA widget. Doesn’t appear you can change that. I found a module called MMM-ISS-Information which has the option to set ‘iss-map: false’ This might be what you’re aiming at. I have not tested it, however.

@bhepler Hey, thanks! :-)

@Mykle1 Thanks for all the work on MMM-Lunartic and providing it to the community. Really fun.

@MwMagicMirror Thanks for posting. I had the same problem as @richland007 . Your URL fixed it for me.

Thanks to @lpgjg and @Mykle1 - Really appreciate the suggestions. I’ve installed mmm-moon-phases. It’s great. I installed MMM-Lunartic, and love all the extra stats. I’m struggling in CSS to get the moon image closer to the header (or a module above it). It’s just an aesthetic change. Seems like maybe the image itself has a larger border. Would like to fix that but otherwise, super cool. Thank you @Mykle1 for making such a fun module.
