I’ve completed the constuction of my mirror now, so here it is! As the title says its 12x12 inch with a small screen inside. How I made it was i bought a cheap 12x12 mirror frame with a viewable area of 9 inches then removed the glass and put my 2 way acrylic on top. this makes an essentially borderless mirror with a “pen” to house my pi and screen with supports. I with struggling with visibility of the modules so i pretty much changed the custom css to have nearly everything bold and bright. Unfortunately as you can I have some wobbly mirror goodnesss at the due to the floppy acrylic. I promised myself when i started that i’d keep the back super neat and tidy which i clearly did not do! The entire thing weighs less that 1.5 kilos, but cant remember exactly, pretty sure its closer to 1.2.[image: 1485549525797-16326195_10154299322681732_203552796_o.jpg] [image: 1485549524135-16326309_10154299322466732_1582842900_o.jpg] [image: 1485549522186-16357787_10154299322446732_1511699904_o.jpg] Modules going counter clockwise starting at clock -default clock MMM-Wunderground MMM-Todoist (menu for the week) default news feed default calendar (League of Legends matches) default news feed (edited to be a twitter feed of our trainline) MMM-voice (error cos i dont have a mic plugged it) Secret bonus modules MMM-movieinfo (starts hidden, appears in center when i voice command it to) Lastfm Scrobbler in bottom right I must have about 10 or so modules commented out in my config.js and I ended up just picking the ones I’d actually look at. But it’s fun to play with them.

Hi all, So I’m towards the end of my mirror build, I have all the modules setup how i want them on my pi which was super quick because I’d been using a ubuntu vm for testing and then just SCP the config.js over. Im at the point where I can put a tablet screen with a teamviewer session behind my Two-way acrylic to see how it looks size-wise and I’ve noticed that however bright i make the screen it’s not very clear because my walls are WHITE! So unless I’m standing directly in the front of the module i want to look at all i see is faint text amidst a reflection of a white wall LOL. I’ve tried changing the colour of the text to stand out more but it doesnt seem to do all that much. Has anyone else had to work around apartment decor and what helped you if anything?

It would be handy, if there was a module built that allowed you to drag and re-order them in real-time on screen :)

I struggled with the same until I came up with the pattern I’m using in my MotionEye module (see link to GitHub in my signature). In the module I configure a global variable ‘motionDetected’ (could be named 'visible’) that I set to false. In the ‘getDom’ function I return only a DOM element if that is true. In the node _ helper I send SHOW notification to the module whenever I want the module to be visible. I do this initially in ‘start’ function too because the user can configure the module to be visible at start. This is not necessary if it always should start hidden. Back in the module, I receive the notification and updates the ‘visible’ variable and call updateDom that now will return something.
