    • RE: Background image affected by Margins

      @Sean @shashank Many thanks for the idea and info regarding the module. While it’s not running as a custom.css it does the job exactly as I required.

      @Sean Will have to look at that. Haven’t really looked at all the new modules as everything I needed was all set.

    • RE: Background image affected by Margins

      @Sean Thanks - Ya its not quite working… I am still playing with it. I can get the formatting I want for the content, but the background does not behave how i think it should. Its not a repeating background its something I made at 1920x1080 size. Used to work back several MM versions ago, but it broke and I just turned it off as I could live with the solid black. New application and I really wanted to get a background on it again.

      Keep on playing with it and I might solve it.

      Thanks for the ideas.

    • RE: Background image affected by Margins

      @Sean Just tried it again. That does pull the image to the top left but cuts it off at bottom and right. As well the magic mirror content gets pulled to all 4 edges meaning there is zero space between edge of monitor and start of text.

      The margin zero got the image to the edge, but padding 40 did not affect the content text.

    • Background image affected by Margins

      So I have added a background image and it is affected by my margins. Is there a different section (Other than Body) i should be placing the call? I ultimately would like my Background to fill full screen with the mirror content using the margins. I have messed with moving it to header and got an interesting result as well as messed with using padding vs margins. Thanks.

      body {
        background-image: url('ClassicBG.png');
        background-repeat: no-repeat;
        background-size: 1920;
        margin: 40px;
        position: absolute;
        height: calc (100% - 80px);
        width: calc (100% - 80px);
        font-family: "Roboto Condensed", sans-serif;
        font-weight: 400;
        font-size: 2em;
        line-height: 1.5em;
        -webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;
      }

    • RE: Family Info Board

      No need to duplicate the module, in the config.js just repeat the module config but point to the second calendar settings.

    • RE: Sonos Module

      I have the Sonos mod running on my Mirror. I get the same thing when I run more than one speaker as a group. If I run each speaker as separate it will load each speaker fine. I haven’t bothered looking into it much as I rarely use the speakers in group mode…

      As I have already done for many, just shoot me a PM with your email address and I will send the custom.css and background.

    • RE: Trying to add a background picture, {Body} doesnt work

      @oscarkindberg

      Yes I fully understand, but in html you can layer exactly like you are thinking, but the tools used by Magic Mirror do not support it yet. I spent several hours thinking I was formatting it wrong until I realized this.

    • RE: Trying to add a background picture, {Body} doesnt work

      @oscarkindberg You will not be able to float the layer of grey over top. The background services do not support layering. I had tried multi layers for background images and had to make a single background image myself in Gimp to make it work.
