RE: Kitchen Magic²
@Dragonfire1983 I use the classes in order to show on the different pages
modules: [ { module: 'MMM-pages', config: { modules: [ // dashboard ["title_dashboard", ...], // agenda ["title_agenda", ...], ... ] } }, //----------------- Page dashboard -----------------\\ { module: 'MMM-SimpleText', classes: 'title_dashboard', position: 'top_bar', config: { text: { 'value': 'Dashboard' }, fontSize: { 'value': 'xx-large' } } } ]

Dear @jubbles,
I think a full .config file would help here to investigate.

Kitchen Magic²
Hi all,
A short intro: I have created a Magic mirror like 7 years back with a friend of mine and created some modules. Great project, lots of fun, but didn’t have a good place to hang the mirror.
Now I wanted a dashboard in my kitchen and was looking for good software. After trying several other things I came up with the idea to use the Magic Mirror software as it’s perfect for this. Because it is not a mirror, I name this project Kitchen Magic²MirrorSetup
My setup consist of a Microsoft Surface Pro 3 touch on a wall mount. With Tight VNC so I can remotely control it. The machine is always on, but I want it to turn on only when someone is in front of the camera for energy saving purposes. In Windows 10 there is no out-of-the-box feature to do this, therefore I have created the Appearance Detector that does this.
Pages
Because it is a touch screen I can add pages with buttons. In order to create them I use MMM-Pages in combination with MMM-TouchButton and MMM-Cursor to show the cursor. All the modules are switched on MMM-Pages by the classname.
I have added css in order to make it two-column in stead of three-column.Page - dashboard
- MMM-SimpleText - for the title
- MMM-CalendarExt3Agenda - shared family calendar
- MMM-Afvalwijzer - notification when the containers are retrieved, I added CleanProfs data (so I know when they are being washed)
- MMM-Quiz - quiz module for fun, which I created myself
- MMM-Sonos - which music plays
- clock
- MMM-OpenmapWeather
- MMM-HTMLSnippet - for showing a chess puzzle of Lichess
- compliments
Page - agenda
- MMM-SimpleText - for the title
- MMM-CalendarExt3 - shared family calendar - yeah it’s pretty empty, my girlfriend and I are both on leave because our second child was just born, so the agenda is quite empty ☺
Page - weather
- MMM-SimpleText - for the title
- MMM-3Day-Forecast
- MMM-Buienradar - rainfall
- MMM-UVIndex
Page - traffic
- MMM-SimpleText - for the title
- MMM-HTMLSnippet - for showing the Google maps route from home to work with traffic
- MMM-MyTraffic - list of traffic jams
Page - news
- MMM-SimpleText - for the title
- newsfeed - nu.nl feed
- MMM-wiki
Page - recipes
- MMM-SimpleText - for the title
- newsfeed - for the feed of Forkranger
Page - music
- MMM-SimpleText - for the title
- MMM-Sonos - which music plays
TODO
There is always work to do. Some of the things I want to do are these:
- Cable management - really need to do some cable management here
- Make the weather page nicer
- Add support for Alexa so I can start music with my voice
- Update the Appearance Detector as it doesn’t work well when it is dark (it’s to sensitive then)
- Add the possibility to push an html to page to the recipes page from my phone so I know what to cook that day
- Add face recognition, so when my girlfriend gets in the picture it shows hearts all over
- Need to do something more with the music page, not sure what yet, I am thinking of showing the lyrics of the currently playing song
