Hi,
@nowis: That sounds great!

Maybe you can also take a look at the module shbatm created. I don’t know what the status of the module is he developed but he wrote that it is up to 90% ready to use.

Although I have no clue about programming I think it should be possible to use the MMM-Swipe module in connection to the MMM-Pages from edward-shen. He also uses some kind of input (skywriter) to give commands to the pages module to switch pages.
But for daily use I would prefer the HCSR-04 sensors.

Same here for me. The one from mochman didn’t work entirely as intended.
The fork from shbatm I never tried because he wrote that due to problems using the sensor which his dog did not very much liked the module is not finshed yet. I totally understand that he is going to try another way because he won’t be able to use the sensors.

Hope there will be more people who want that module finished. I think it could be a very effective way to switch between pages once it is running.

First, a big THANK YOU for all module developers. Unfortunately - and thats the reason why I am posting here - I am a real programming NOOB. I am only able to follow tutorials others wrote and use the good modules others programmed.

As already mentioned in the header, I want to aks if s.o. is interested in developing the MMM-Swipe module further , using the HC-SR04 sensors. If you have followed the development of the module two guys (mochman and shbatm) have already programmed on this module and I am a huge fan of the idea - hope that it going to work soon!

Last time I discovered the MMM-Pages and asked the developer if he would be interested in taking over the MMM-Swipe development as pages could be changed by swiping it. Sadly he won’t have time available in the near future.

I would be very happy if someone is out there wanting to take over this great project!

c.keen

@roramirez The first loading of a picture when the mirror gets startet is interrupted, only the first few “lines” of a picture are shown, then the next picture is displayed. I have read about ‘getInterval’ command on the github module page but do not understand it completely. Reading the description it seems the same to me as the ‘updateInterval’ command (??) Any suggestions?

Hello,
I really like this module but experienced kind of a delayed loading of the pictures. I have the raspberry pi 3 running, the pictures (all .jpg) are about 2MB which I think is not such a huge size. Any idea how to excelerate the loading?

Good evening,
I was quite excited when I read about this module. And since there is the MMM-Profileswitcher, I would really like to know if someone has tried to connect the swipe-module to the profileswitcher? Unfortunately I am a programming NOOB, is there anybody out there who wants to develop this module any further?
There is the module from thobach at https://github.com/thobach/MMM-Gestures. But I wanted to use the HCSR-04 ultrasonic range instead an arduino …

And I started the raspberry and the terminal multiple times since the error

At first when I tried to install using the bash script it stopped at the second step (can’t remember exactly why). But second time it worked itself completely through the steps. Starting the mirror I got the “Error” message. Then I read the thread here completely and removed all components necessary.
I installed it again using the script and no warnings or errors were reported. But still, after “initialising” the Error message was displayed. ?? As described in the error.log I found “127” and in the debug.log the long message I reported in an earlier thread.
I still have no idea …

the bold part was not in the file itself (the forum software did it). The file ends with … pkgconfig as can be seen above

found the bashrc file !
the last few lines it does not comment on magic mirror or a module itself … (?)
