  • RE: MMM-Carousel causing Mirror to shift up

    Sam- This is weird. I commented out the position property and it showed all the modules at the same time instead of splitting the out across slides. It was hard to see what was being “repositioned” since several of the modules share the same position property, but it just looks like the slide mode is being ignored.

    I went back and put the position property back in and started playing around with the showPageIndicators and showPageControls properties. Changing showPageControls to false had no impact on position, but did allow me to transition between slides. Turning showPageIndicators to false did remove the indicators and the positioning was less high (including the BGSlideshow).

    I still can’t get the buttons to work with Carousel like they used to but trying to troubleshoot one thing at a time.

  • RE: MMM-Carousel causing Mirror to shift up

    Sam- Here is the snippet from my config file:

    	{
                module: "MMM-Carousel",
                position: "bottom_bar",
                config: {
                    transitionInterval: 0,
                    ignoreModules: ["MMM-SimpleBGSlideshow"],
                    mode: "slides",
                    showPageIndicators: true,
                    showPageControls: true,
                    slides: [
    ["clock", "MMM-OpenWeatherForecast", "MMM-News", "MMM-CalendarExt3Journal"],
    ["MMM-CalendarExt3", "MMM-CalendarNext"],
    ["alert","updatenotification"]
                    ],
                    keyBindingsMode: "DEFAULT",
                    keyBindings: {
                        NextSlide: "ArrowRight",
                        PrevSlide: "ArrowLeft",
                        Slide0: "Home"
                    },
                },  //End of Carousel config
           },  //End of Carousel module
    

    I can also send a picture of what it looks like.

  • MMM-Carousel causing Mirror to shift up

    I’m using MMM-Carousel by @shbatm in slide mode and have had no issues for a long time. I had not done any updates or pulls for a while as everything was working like I wanted. For some reason, my mirror started having issues. I went through doing updates on the rassberry and all the modules, but two issues remained: 1) everything shifted up about an inch shortly after starting up the mirror (including all the modules and the background slideshow) and 2) my buttons (using MMM-Buttons to transition slides) stopped working. When I comment out the Carousel module in the config.js file (as well as the modules that are supposed to be on the later slides), everything displays properly. Current modules are default clock in top left, MMM-News below that, OpenWeatherForecast in top left, and CalendarExt3Journal along the bottom.

  • RE: MMM-CalendarExt3 multiple instance display

    @MMRIZE
    I was able to force it to work by re-naming the .js and .css files as seen in many posts. I also changed everything in the .css file from CX3 to CXN (for Next), and had to rename the popoverSupported and animationSupported constants at the beginning of the .js file. Maybe a little over the top, but it worked. I presume the smarter way would be to have a branch in github, but I haven’t started dabbling in that yet.

  • RE: MMM-CalendarExt3 multiple instance display

    @MMRIZE
    Sorry to pester you yet again, but after getting Journal just how I wanted, especially after you added the border around today (thank you), I’m trying to get multiple instances up on the screen. I’m starting by having only the basic calendar (with no listed position) and two instances of CX3 (current month and next month). I just want to get those on the same page. From there I want to feed it into Carousel, but I’m still trying to figure out how to “call” the right one. I’m assuming MMM-CalendarExt3{instanceID} where my two instances are labeled CURR_MONTH (monthIndex: 0) and NEXT_MONTH(monthIndex: 1).

  • CalendarExt3Journal CSS modification

    @MMRIZE
    I’ve got the Journal displaying properly and have been able to modify of few things in the CSS file, but something I have not been able to figure out is if I can put a noticeable white border around the complete day, similar to how you in CX3 with the line CX3 .cell.today. Is there a way to isolate the entire day’s column? I tired playing with the .daycell and .fulldayCell classes, but those did not work.
    Additionally, is there a way to figure out what some of the later classes are such as .canton, .index, and .gridCell.
    I have been learning a lot from you and @sdetweil, so thank you for all the guidance and your quick response. The mirror I have built with your help has been helping my family keep our crazy schedule in check a little better lately.

  • RE: MMM-CalendarExt3Journal not displaying

    @MMRIZE
    Syntax strikes again. I had the variable as hourlength vice hourLength. Also, I had CX3J and the newsfeed module both along the bottom bar. I moved CX3J up to the lower third and all is displaying right. Now I just want to do some tweaks to the css file for formatting. Thanks again for all your help and the great modules.

  • RE: MMM-CalendarExt3Journal not displaying

    @MMRIZE That’s pretty much the same configuration I have. It’s the same config as I had at the beginning of the post except I changed the hours to start at 0700 and go for 12 hours. I don’t understand why my individual hours are so tall compared to yours. I thought, if you increase the hourLength, it would adjust the individual hours to fit within the 50vh limit. Am I missing something, or do I need to take a look at the front-end log?
