Yes, the normal interface is just a USB connection. You can think of it like turning your screen into a tablet: you can tap on an icon, you can drag your finger(s) like you are drawing, etc… Depending on the orientation you want your monitor to be in you may need to rotate the controls via config file.

@strawberry-3-141 Thanks for taking a look. The ignoreModules section was a holdover from one of the eleventeen-thousand configurations I tried thinking I was missing something

@sdetweil It works as advertised.

Thanks to both of you for the quick help.

I am new to the MagicMirror world and am having a difficult time tracking down the cause of a conflict. I am trying to use MMM-GoogleMapsTraffic (vicmora) and MMM-WeatherBackground (eouia) on different slides in MMM-Carousel (shbatm). I started out setting everything up with MMM-GoogleMapsTraffic and was able to do multiple slide configurations no problem. Attempting to add in MMM-WeatherBackground was several hours of frustration.

I started commenting modules out of the config and am at the point now that MMM-WeatherBackground can work with multiple slide configurations only if MMM-GoogleMapsTraffic is not in the config.js file (even if I do not put it on a slide). They work great independently, but MMM-WeatherBackground will not display a background image if MMM-GoogleMapsTraffic is in the config.js file.

Sample file (will not display background image on Slide 1 unless MMM-GoogleMapsTraffic is completely commented out of the entire config.js file):

     {
         module: 'MMM-Carousel',
         position: 'bottom_bar', 
         config: {
            transitionInterval: 0,
            showPageIndicators: true,
            showPageControls: false,
            ignoreModules: ['alert', 'MMM-WeatherBackground'],
            mode: 'slides',
            slides: {
               main: [{ name: 'clock', position: "middle_center", carouselId: "1" }],
               "Slide 1": [{ name: 'MMM-Dummy', carouselId: '1' }],
               //"Slide 2": ['currentweather', 'weatherforecast', 'MMM-GoogleMapsTraffic', { name: 'clock', carouselId: "2" }],
            },
            keyBindings: {
               enabled: true,
               map: {
                  NextSlide: "ArrowRight",
                  PrevSlide: "ArrowLeft",
               },
               mode: "DEFAULT",
            },
         }
      },
      {
         module: "MMM-WeatherBackground",
         config: {
            carouselId: "5",
            targetDOM: ".MMM-Dummy", 
            hemisphere: "n",
            source: "currentweather", 
         }
      },
      {
         module: "MMM-Dummy",
         position: "fullscreen_below",
         config: {
            carouselId: "1",
            width: "100vw",
            height: "100vh",
         }
      },
      {
         module: 'MMM-GoogleMapsTraffic',
         position: 'bottom_center',
         config: {
            carouselId: "2",
            key: 'myKey',
            lat: 36.2465001,
            lng: -91.0663971,
            zoom: 11,
            height: '800px',
            width: '800px',
            styledMapType: "dark",
            disableDefaultUI: true,
         },
      },

Any suggestions or thoughts on how to proceed?

(And, BTW, this project has been a ton of frustrating fun :P )
