@mumblebaj Yes, there are many techniques to do this. If you also want to shutdown the Raspberry Pi then you can schedule it and using hardware plug like @adrian-k mentioned power on the Pi again.

@rxlDavid many modules are doing it. I am using MMM-EyeCandy for the same.

@jthewarrior7 May be it is remembering the last opened size of browser ? can you maximize it then close and reopen it ? Is it open maximized ? Then try with Mirror script.

@bhepler Thanks for sharing your experience, I also did sometimes pulled the plug but I prefer not to do this as later on I might need to correct the things like you said. Also being a programmer if I can automate something then won’t do it manually so I prefer to schedule a shutdown/Restart by software or hardware :) Which will also save power and SD card and manual efforts.

@trix2k what issue exactly you are facing ? your config should look like below. Are you sure you have shared calendar correctly ?

calendars: [
	{
			symbol: "calendar-check",
			url: "https://calendar.google.com/calendar/ical/youremailaddress/private-XXXXXX/basic.ics",
	}
],

@sdetweil Yes, I did used it Sam. I also mentioned it in your scripts topic as well. Thanks for the script :)

@jthewarrior7 Is it starting electron window or chromium browser ? I recently made my magic mirror with pi zero w and had some issues with electron but as it is optional npm start is starting chromium browser in full screen and it is working fine, Also I am using Rapbian OS Desktop version.

@Morganga It’s not working because width is calculated dynamically and affecting the margin. You can changed the width offset to adjust it using custom.css. See below.

body
{
   width: calc(100% - 250px);
}

Adjust the value of 250px for your need.

Before

After

@shalumov Powering off the raspberry pi directly from power strip is not recommended as it might corrupt the SD card. Your monitor is not switching on after powering on but stays in stand by can be solved using Raspberry pi itself. check Remote-control or other modules/scripts in this forum who supports it. If you monitor support CEC or other standard then it is doable with raspberry pi and you do not need to use Monitor/TV remote or button.

@MyMirror you can also try with notepad++, it is xml text only. from file it looks like each image is of 24x24 size. see view box attribute value in symbol.

@kusselin Sorry was occupied with something. The symbol is optional, if you do not provide it then it will take the default icon.
Below is my config and output, Notice the new year’s day.

customEvents: [
	 {
		"keyword": "Christmas Day",
		"symbol": "calendar-icon-christmas",
		"color": "red"
	 },
	 {
		"keyword": "New Year's Day",
		"color": "yellow"
	 },
	 {
		"keyword": "Easter Sunday",
		"symbol": "calendar-icon-easter",
		"color": "blue"
	 }
	]

@majdzik84 Good to know ! :)

@majdzik84 Okay, not sure why it is not listing the action. can you try below once ? it will send notification to all the modules including HA module and it should refresh the module. this is based on Remote control documentation https://github.com/Jopyth/MMM-Remote-Control/blob/master/API/README.md

http://192.168.2.200:8080/api/notification/REFRESHHOMEASSISTANT

@majdzik84 said in Force a module refresh - not the entire page:

{“success”:false,“message”:“Module Name or Identifier Not Found!”}

• Did you added the code in MMM-homeassistant-sensors.js ?
• Can you try http://192.168.2.200:8080/api/module/homeassistantsensors/refreshhomeassistant url ? (I have removed the - from home assistant sensors)
  for more details about module and it’s action check https://github.com/Jopyth/MMM-Remote-Control/tree/master/API

@majdzik84 If I understood you correctly, you want to send message to Magic Mirror when sensor value change in home assistant and it should refresh the MMM-HomeAssistant-Sensors module, so you see updated value of sensor over there ?

It should be doable with MMM-Remove-control same way as you are sending alert. I have not installed the remote control module and MMM-HomeAssistant-Sensors so can’t test the code my self but you can do below.

• Add below code in MMM-homeassistant-sensors.js

notificationReceived: function (notification, payload, sender) {
		if (notification === "REFRESHHOMEASSISTANT") {
			this.getStats();
		} 
},

• Do not forget the , after } in last line else it will break the module
• Restart the mirror
• From your browser open http://192.168.2.200:8080/api/module/MMM-homeassistant-sensors or http://192.168.2.200:8080/api/module/homeassistantsensors if first url does not work
• If you see REFRESHHOMEASSISTANT in response then remote control knows new action on HA module
• Now you can send command from HA to refresh the module using http://192.168.2.200:8080/api/module/homeassistantsensors/refreshhomeassistant (url should be in lowercase and also MMM- and - are removed in api path)

As I can not test it and things I have suggested above are based on my code review of both the modules. you might need to adjust one or more things. but in theory it should work.

Let me know how (or if) it works.

@MyMirror Changing color is easier here using css

you can create similar class in custom.css and change the value of fill property to what you want.

But changing icon itself will be difficult as here author is using svg image sprite and not separate icon files.
you will need to change below file and replace the icon with the one you wanted (also with correct size)

@lucallmon Try with some candies first :)

@majdzik84 You can call updatedom method of the target module to refresh that specific module, or if that module have notification refresh then can send notification. Check below documentation for update dom method of modules
https://docs.magicmirror.builders/development/core-module-file.html#this-updatedom-speed

@sdetweil : Thank you for the great installer script ! it worked well on Raspberry Pi Zero W. I had issue with electron and dependencies but it did the job :)

@fsne04 Here it checks for the position value (edited my answer above).
