  • Unable to Install on RPi 3 b - unable to install dependencies

    I am running a new RPi, the latest Raspian Stretch w/ Desktop. I get through to the point of installing dependencies and get a long list of errors. I have googled the heck out of this and the problem appears to have been reported before and related to npm.

    Any help appreciated and happy to provide more details if needed.

  • News module 'height' changes when 3 vs 2 lines of text - pushes up other modules?

    Not sure how best to describe, but I’m using the news feed module located at the bottom region of my mirror - pretty standard for most people seemingly. My only issue is that if the RSS feed has 2 vs 3 lines of text, the module ‘size/height’ changes which pushes up the two modules I have located above the News module ( I have the 3rd party Calendar module in the lower left region and the stock ticker on the lower right region). I’m trying to figure out which part of the main.css module needs to be changed to fix this…

    Help appreciated.

    Thanks

  • Calendar_Monthly - today's date block not sized for double digit dates

    I know this is wicked picky, but in this module, a white rectangle is used to highlight the current date on the calendar. I’ve noticed that this rectangle gets ‘cut off’ on the right side of the rectangle when the date is represented by double digit dates (ex. 10-31). I checked out the .js code for the module, but can’t see where this is defined. Any ideas? I think the rectangle simply needs to be extended in width a few pixels…

    I know, wicked anal, but I am an engineer after all (just not a good software engineer)…

  • RE: Module Regions - Tutorial Requested

    @broberg Interesting… I didn’t know about

    and am now reading up on it. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction that explains a lot. I’ll try to read up on this before asking any more questions!

  • RE: Module Regions - Tutorial Requested

    @broberg Thanks, will do so, but I don’t understand how they can not have a defined size??? how does that work? For example, I have calendar (.top.left), Advent (.top.center) and Weather (.top.right)… however, the default sizes of each region/module are not equal thirds… trying to understand this.

  • RE: Module Regions - Tutorial Requested

    @strawberry-3.141 If my questions get to be too frustrating, please feel free to say so and I will stop. So from this thread, how would I know what the right hand border size of a .top.left region was (in other words, how wide is the region)? The code I think from main.css for this is I believe the followingn, but it only defines the top for these regions is 100% of top, what are the width or border dimensions…?

    .region.top.right,
    .region.top.left,
    .region.top.center {
    top: 100%;
    }

  • RE: Module Regions - Tutorial Requested

    @mochman Thanks, I had/have that link and it is useful. I am trying to understand the way in which main.css defines the regions and how that structure actually works. I’m new to .css and find the code hard to understand. How for example are the horizontal dimensions set for a given region?

    Thanks

  • Module Regions - Tutorial Requested

    Can someone explain in basic conceptual terms how the module regions (‘.top., .third., … etc.’) are designed to work? I am trying to understand so I can enlarge or shrink the 4 boundaries for a given region but don’t understand how the .css works in this case.

    I suspect that others might find this useful as well and appreciate the time anyone takes to put something together.

    Many thanks in advance.

  • RE: MMM-Stock (issues with 'height' of the module)

    @valid8r I also don’t understand this code for animation and how it works…

    .quotes ul:hover { animation-play-state: paused }
    .quotes span:hover+ul { animation-play-state: paused }

  • RE: MMM-Stock (issues with 'height' of the module)

    @valid8r I seem to have figured out at least part of the solution by setting the parameter "

    .quotes {
    height: 25px;

    to

    .quotes {
    height: 100px;

    While this fixes the number of scrolling ‘rows’ of stocks, the animation is still kind of strange…
