@sdetweil So long as one has saved their changes in the given file, those commands will load the new file configuration? What about if you change the js file for a given module?

What causes a module to not reload completely? I notice this primarily with the holiday calendar. Upon the aforementioned restart it will show No Upcoming Events. I’ll hit Reload again and it will populate.

@Mykle1 I want to use whole screen, but I’ve just started thinking about what to put on it. But I’ll give you a quick example. on 24" (pardon if you are metric) diag screen. The default clock is is 4.5" wide.

42" screen, same default clock is 8" wide
My first boneheaded move was to change screen resolution. The underlying Pi OS desktop was so small you needed a magnifying glass to see the little Raspberry icon. My biggest challenge so far is dealing with the region sizes.

Things like that iFrame that has the radar image on it, the iFrame is configured to maintain a standard W x H ratio for a typical monitor and I wrestled with padding on the ticker up top, padding in general to get it centered and not crowd out other modules but also be readable from across the room.

I’ve made abundant use of the developer tool but some stuff still eludes me.
The daily weather line graph below it may look okay to a casual observer but I can NOT get it to widen out to the right no matter how many things I have tried. But per @sdetweil that is due to it incorporating chartjs in the module. I can tell you PM2 RESTART MM is seared in to my brain.

Tweaking the region sizes, and how they are placed is something I don’t understand yet

I don’t have any plans to make mirrors with these. The one I just posted is in living room, gives me a snapshot of everything I need to know as far as what’s on tap for the day.
I have large screen in bedroom that I use as TV. Will do similar with it. Just have Pi on one HDMI port and cable on another input. That project will require a fair amount of CSS mods as its a big screen and modules are huge on it.

@sdetweil There’s a bunch of Covid stuff out there on github. I figured it would be in 3rd party modules but it wasn’t listed.

No big deal. That weatherchart module has a bunch of what should really be in a CSS page or at top of js page but is just in the code. Was a good learning experience for me though as I wrestled through it .

Is there either a good custom.css page out that tackles a bunch of modules.

I generally understand CSS, what I want to better understand is how you target a particular module and override it’s default CSS as a lot of modules have some default value out of the box.

Version 2. Tossed the YouTube in the iFrame, Replaced with National Weather Service radar page.
Got rid of the module that was past?? cloud/rain. Replaced with WeatherChart module.

Also, looks like CalendarLabs has posted 2021 calendar as it was populated with new dates this morning.

That’s exactly what I need to do but can’t figure out how to get access. Which one of covid modules is it, or do you have link.? Several modules come up on search covid in 3rd party modules.

I have been messing around with the MMM-WeatherChart module and it is using chartjs in some way that I don’t understand. Chartjs seems to be driving the size of the chart in some fashion because I can see some references to it in the developer tool.
But I absolutely can not locate how it is interacting with chartjs beyond these lines. It’s referencing some size attributes but how?

I gave the weather module a try and while I can get it to show the current weather, I can not get it to show the 5 day forecast after numerous changes. The page dedicated to this module says just use the module twice and and that is what I did, in addition to using weathergov as data source.
I looked at the weather.js code and I am not great at reading code but it seems like there is no code to adjust in config.js

For example there is a line
timeFormat: config.timeFormat in weather.js
Then this in config.js timeFormat: 12,

The wiki?? page tells about the different options such as current, forecast, and daily as configuration items but again, I can’t find a corresponding lines in weather.js to result in image on page.

As an aside to that, it looks like when placed in middle_center it is thinking it is in one of the X_third configurations as it draws a line full screen width under the location text. top_center and bottom_center draw the line correctly under location text.

This refers to upper or lower case am/pm? I checked CSS case and it refers to text-transform.
I’ve seen this in multiple modules and want to make sure.

I keep seeing this fault on the developer Tools console. I am using the Openweathermap free tier and it has a limit on the number of calls that can be made per day.
I sent Openweathermaps a question regarding the fault and their reply was as follows.

"I would recommend you to contact the software developer for details. If the software tries to use the Daily API endpoint, it will not get access, since it is not available for free users.

Any ideas on how to clear this error?
Or best to ignore until the new default weather module is ready for general usage.

Here is screen capture of fault.
