Never mind guys I was able to get it to work by following the instructions here
After all it wasn’t the css file that I needed to change, but the Pi autostart file in the /etc/xdg/lxsession/LXDE-pi/ folder.
Read the statement by Michael Teeuw here.

RE: Save performance when rotating screen e.g. on Raspberry Pi
Warning! Extreme newbie here. This is only my second day playing with Magic Mirror css.
I changed my css file and boot/config.txt following @evroom’s instructions above and although I was able to rotate the screen with these instructions, like @Joern, the Magic Mirror modules only fill the bottom half of the screen.
My CSS file is as follows (sorry, I don’t know how to put this in a separate box):
body {
margin: 0px; If I omit “px”, Magic Mirror does not display correctly.
position: absolute;
transform: rotate(90deg);
transform-origin: top right;
width: 100vh;
height: 100vh; If I change this to “100vw”, Magic Mirror does not display correctly.
object-fit: cover;
top: 100vh;
visibility: visible;
background: #000;
color: #aaa;
font-family: “Roboto Condensed”, san-serif;
font-weight: 400;
font-size: 2em;
line-height: 1.5em;
-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;
}
.MMM-HTMLBox {
font-size: 18px;
line-height: 22px;
}
.MMM-RTSPStream header {
text-align: left;
}
.MMM-RTSPStream .innerWrapper {
border-style: none;
}…a few more entries after these ones.
My boot/config.txt contains the following entry:
display_hdmi_rotate=0
framebuffer_width=1600
framebuffer_height=900Any entries shown here that were not included in @evroom’s instructions, are from the original installation of Magic Mirror.
I’m running Magic Mirror latest software on a Pi4 with an Acer 24" monitor.
Any ideas as to what I should change in order for the modules to fill the entire screen?
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
