@Mykle1 still have a windows 10 development board with 4gb ram and a Intel Atom x5-Z8350. Hope I have the time to try MM with that this we :)

@Mykle1 what are the specs of the laptop mainboard your using?

@strawberry-3-141 yes but I will probably use the voice control in a different way than I hought I would. Thats why I am not sure how I will change the code. Makes not much sence to waste your time on correcting the faults when I change pretty much every part of the program again right afterwards (and have to get used to git since I did not use it yet)

@strawberry-3-141 I will when I finished, but have to do some other stuff for the speech recognition first. Will let you know when I posted it on github

@shbatm looks nice ;) I might use this slide indicator for my module, thats a really nice idea

1. yes already saw that yesterday forgot to replace it ;)

2. yes decided to do some majopr changes to improve it (hope to finish them today)

3. I am new to javascript why I asked because I don’t need to learn the stuff in a wrong way from start off. So any tips on improving the code that are a general thing so that I should think off when doing other stuff with javascript I am really interested in

@Mykle1 but the feel Temperature gets calculated out of two of the numbers he showed on the screen (windspeed and real temperatur) when I pulled out my calculator to check it it was definetly below 100, so not quite sure what caused the error, but would surprise me if it was the API.

@maxbachmann said in Module Position:

self.sendNotification(HideShow + “_” + modulename);

tells the other module to hide. I saw there is the function
modulename.hide() , but I could not get it to work. Whats the name I have to use there to make it work?

Thats my full code I use: Are there still things that should be different for performance, or just because thats not a usual way to do it ;)

@strawberry-3-141

1. The Message I already thought yesterday that it’s better To just Do
   This.sendNotification(buildthemessagetring)
2. I have hide/Show And Move in The Same If because it’s connected To a Speech recognition that gives me hide/Show And Move To The Same mqtt so they Are absolutely connected in My case, but yes HIDE_SHOW should get changed To HIDE_SHOW_MOVE
3. I just did Not replace your Test strings By the right Part of The objects yet ;)
4. have To try that later because yesterday I did change those variables To const but then it worked for The First command, but the Moment I Wanted To perform a Second Action like Showing again it did Not work anymore
   Thats Why I was Not Sure wether I am allowed To use const but will Look in that later

Thx for The explanation so let is basically a local Variable, var a global definetly At a pretty Random position and const Is local And can’t Be changed right?
