Im looking into creating a small dashboard with a couple buttons that pertain to whatever room it is in. Im curious if anyone has tried this or attempted to make a dashboard this small? its a 3.5" screen that would fit in standard light switch and then use an open face cover.

I haven’t used one yet, I think I’ll get one to give it a go now that you’ve mentioned it.
I’ve used the official touchscreen alright, and just in case here’s a link with some tips about rotating the screen and having the touch sensing line up:
The code might be different for the smaller screen, might be useful either way.
awesome. yea i got the screen rotated, but i need to leave it in portrait. i was planning on just using a full screen browser something like…
| {light 1} |
| {light 2} |
| {sonos} |
| {tv channel} |
| and so on…
im playing around ill keep you updated, let me know if you end up getting something goin too.
i have a simular screen, and had a dashboard running on it.
there is actually no difference with any other dashboard.
you open a browser, open the dashboard and set it to full screen.
the only difference is that you dont want to have a (120x120) widget, because thats useles.
i had a screenwidth from 1024 pixels and wanted 4 widgets, so i used (250x250)
off course you then have to adjust iconsizes etc.
