does anybody know how to remove the state of entities in an entity filter. It is for a sensor. The state is green but I dont need it to say that in the filter as all of them are going to be green: https://imgur.com/a/gQtDLTQ

#

so it will say:
Green
Green
Green
Green
Green

The value of the sensor was only intended to be seen by me and used by the filter

#

i tried show_state: false but no luck. Starting to think it can only be used on glance entity filter

I managed to find a solution using template-entity-row mod

Evening!
Not sure what it is called in English, but I'm using Chips and wonder if it somehow is possible to create a "Hold action" that opens up more "Chips" next to it?

Kind of like "reaction" on many applications, if you get what I mean.

I'm trying to create a second lovelace dashboard and have it show up in the sidebar. I tried to follow https://ui-lovelace-minimalist.github.io/UI/setup/customizing/#add-multiple-dashboards and reloaded all YAML, but the second dashboard doesn't appear in the sidebar or in Settings/Dashboards. ui-lovelace_2.yaml has the same header stuff as mentioned on the page and includes one view. Said view seems to work fine if included as a tab on my main lovelace dashboard. Nothing in the HA log. One thing I'm unclear about is whether the name lovelace-minimalist-2, under dashboards: in configuration.yaml, has any significance, because they don't seem to refer to anything by that name.

#

Looks like it just needed a full HA restart.

#

I have this card working nicely using template-entity-row and card-mod https://www.dpaste.org/09ohb Except i really wanted it to sort by when last change. So i did some googling and came across auto-entities which can do sorting. However i cant figure out how to use template-entity-row/card-mod the same way for the filtered entities in auto-entities. I managed to make this: https://www.dpaste.org/o8wgb which sorts how I want but it basically bypasses the filter part of auto-entities. so all entities show all the time.

so I can either sort them and show all of them or filter them properly and not sort them.
Would anybody know how i can achieve what im looking for?

Yes in the dashboard look at the top where the tabs are. you can use the edit button up there to edit the visibility of the tab and you can make 2 similar tabs but have one limited for you and the other limited to someone else

tall sage May 31, 2024, 11:02 PM

no idea why this is here or how to get rid of it.

upper dew May 31, 2024, 11:08 PM

but why not just edit the dashboard and remove the card?

tall sage May 31, 2024, 11:10 PM

Does anyone have suggestions for debugging .yaml files? I'm trying to build my dashboard with !include but for some reason they're not showing up on the dashboard and I'm not sure why

dark dirge Jun 1, 2024, 12:50 AM

#

Are you managing your dashboard in YAML mode?

shadow nymph Jun 1, 2024, 12:50 AM

#

Yes

#

I suspect it has to do with how I'm trying to break things out

#

Because if I just copy and paste everything into one file, it works

#

Okay, so doing

type: custom:mushroom-chips-card
chips: 
  !include location_chips.yaml

Works. However when I try to do

type: custom:mushroom-chips-card
chips: 
  !include location_chips.yaml
  !include door_chips.yaml

It fails. Both YAML files are a list of - template's

#

I also tried

type: custom:mushroom-chips-card
chips: 
  - !include location_chips.yaml
  - !include door_chips.yaml

but then it just doesn't load that content at all (I think due to the -)

#

Ahh, the problem is that I need to use !include_dir_merge_list

I found a way at last 🙂 For others who have the problem, it's possible to add the field type: simple-entity in the code editor for the entities card, as:

type: entities
entities:
  - entity: sensor.washer_dryer_remaining_program_time
    type: simple-entity
    name: Remaining Program Time

Don't know why simple-entity would make it better, but it worked at least 😛 formatting magic

Many moons ago karwosts answered my question about finding a group member:

Well we can get the entity id of the first group member that meets that criteria with this:

const entityId = hass.states['group.assist_satellites'].attributes.entity_id
  .find((eid) => hass.states[eid].attributes.mic_device === hass.states['sensor.assist_last_called'].state)

I am trying to do something similar but not getting results:

#

variables:
      var_assist_group: group.assist_satellites
      var_assistsat_default: |-
        [[[
          return hass.states[variables.var_assist_group].attributes.entity_id
             .find((eid) => hass.states[eid].attributes.type === "view_audio")
        ]]]

#

The error shows:

ButtonCardJSTemplateError: ReferenceError: var_assistsat_default is not defined in 'return var_assistsat_default'

When I try using the var_assistsat_default in a view

#

I am trying to get the first group member that has attribute 'type' that has a value of "view_audio"

#

#

scenic current Jun 1, 2024, 2:14 PM

#

Please disregard . I forgot what my good friend @tribal galleon told me about how JS processes the variables in alphabetical order. Simply changing my variable name from var_assistsat_default to var_default fixed my issue.

I've noticed a fair amount of custom cards like to show example code beginning with the hyphen. It would make sense to have it if the card is included in a stack or grid, but it usually messes people up more than anything else especially, like you mentioned, working with the GUI editor.

Please use a code share site to share code or logs, for example:

https://dpaste.org/ (select YAML for the language, and consider picking a longer expiry)
http://pastie.org/ (select YAML for the language)
https://paste.debian.net/ (you guessed it, select YAML as the language)

Please don't use Pastebin, since it can randomly add spaces to the main view. Please also don't share text as images since it makes it harder for people to help you. Remember that others may have colour blindness, impaired vision, etc.

tribal galleon Jun 3, 2024, 6:25 AM

#

Are you sure the sensor.travel_time_to_work entity came from the Proximity integration? That looks like something the Waze Travel Time integration would make. Go to Settings > Devices and Services > Integrations tab > Proximity to see what entities it gives.

#

What do you have at the very end of the YAML? This doesn't look right. ```yaml
}
]]]

  }
]]]```Once you figure out the entity name, you'll probably also need to delete the last two lines.

And, you still have some entities not correct. For example, in the battery section, you have sensor.ad_s9_aim_battery_level, but the original code's sensor.mobile_battery_level is still there.

You still missed a couple of entities. I changed your code to reflect my entities and it works fine. (Check lines 117, 126, 131, & 140)

I would also change the grid-template-areas to

- grid-template-areas: '"icon icon" "n n" "battery proximity" "wifi status" "sd sd"'```and the `status` layout to ```yaml
status:
  - padding: 0.5em 0px
  - align-self: middle
  - justify-self: start
  - color: gray
```This will move the Home status custom_field down to the bottom right corner and allow the icon to use the whole space. (It's mentioned in the thread as being an issue.)

lyric prairie Yes in the `icon` area

not the button icon, the name: tag

lyric prairie Jun 4, 2024, 12:05 PM

But if you want to use html tags you need <ha-icon to render the mdi-icons

    } else {

fathom wagon Jun 4, 2024, 12:07 PM

#

aww man that sucks

tacit cave Jun 4, 2024, 12:08 PM

#

otherwise if you want to use mdi icons, you need to use ha-icon

#

unless the field accepts icons

#

why does that suck? what are you trying to do?

#

if you want custom icons, use the font awesome custom integration and add your own icons

#

otherwise, using ha-icon has no drawbacks

lyric prairie Jun 4, 2024, 12:09 PM

#

I mostly use the icon area and name area on 1 row and add it without tags

#

So I can utilize the engine for button card itself

tacit cave Jun 4, 2024, 12:09 PM

the imgcell is too much of a PITA to deal with, where ha-icons are much easier

tacit cave Jun 4, 2024, 12:44 PM

#

if we had a button card that was just a grid you could modify and it accepted cards and js, I'd be happy

lyric prairie Jun 4, 2024, 12:45 PM

#

You can but it involves nesting multiple button-cards

tacit cave Jun 4, 2024, 12:46 PM

#

you can do it without nesting cards

#

My point was that I don't need all the fluff custom button card provides

#

I'd just need a button that has a css grid

the rest would be css & js done by me

Having a large tablet in the entrance to the house and being able to control everything is just great, I'm an electrician and build alarm systems and would like to add something like that in the future. Large manufacturers have KNX boards that should make this possible

I got a Lenovo SmartThink View to use with HA, but it loads too slowly with all the frontend modules I've added. I'm thinking I could use a second frontend and remove all the HACS modules it doesn't need.

How many integrations/frontend cards are you using? I have 39 frontend cards/things and I haven't had any issues even on my older iPads.

tepid locust Jun 4, 2024, 10:10 PM

#

38 modules total. I have no issues with my other devices but this display only has 2GB of memory.

vague blaze Jun 4, 2024, 10:13 PM

#

Yeah... I think you're right in that it's loading all the js for everything you have. I don't have a good solution here (aside from getting a better tablet? lol)

tepid locust Jun 4, 2024, 10:26 PM

#

Haha I'm not going to do that, these things were dirt cheap given the specs.

I did notice with 2024.2, the browser memory usage for the frontend spiked on all my devices, but it seemed like a memory leak and I don't think that's the cause here.

Could also be because this is a 32-bit OS, though. Wonder if that causes any issues with the JavaScript.

Hey. I've a question. Is there a way to construct an URL that opens specific device editor?

dark dirge Jun 5, 2024, 2:20 AM

#

What is a 'specific device editor'?

north wave Jun 5, 2024, 2:23 AM

#

If I have a light, for example, I'd like to have an URL to open it's configuration (brightness/color etc). Usually you can see it when you tap the icon on the dashboard. For sensors there is a graph, for things like buttons and lights — controls.

dark dirge Jun 5, 2024, 2:24 AM

#

That's generally called the more-info dialog

north wave Jun 5, 2024, 2:25 AM

#

oh, OK, sorry. Is there a way to construct a URL for that? So that I open it in the browser, and it opens automatically? For entityId, or deviceId, or some other identifier.

dark dirge Jun 5, 2024, 2:27 AM

#

browser_mod can show the more-info dialog for an entity: https://github.com/thomasloven/hass-browser_mod/blob/master/documentation/services.md

tribal galleon Jun 5, 2024, 2:28 AM

#

Perhaps the custom:more-info card?

dark dirge Jun 5, 2024, 2:28 AM

#

It's not a page by itself and doesn't have a specific URL

north wave Jun 5, 2024, 2:30 AM

#

It's not a page by itself and doesn't have a specific URL

Yeah, I was afraid of that.

Maybe there is another, similar page that does have a URL?

tribal galleon Jun 5, 2024, 6:24 AM

#

@north wave Depending on your usage, the custom:more-info card may do what you want. Here, I made a new view and set it to One-Card mode. The more-info card has a defined entity, but you can use the URL specifically for that view. http://10.10.10.2:8123/dashboard-lab/more-info (I called the view more-info on the dashboard named dashboard-lab).
Or, perhaps, you set the one card as a Grid with two columns and show two more-info cards.
The more-info can be called from tap_actions and (I think) can be set to show the more-info of a different entity. If you're looking at being able to get to a bunch of different more-info pages, then that may complicate things a bit.

Revisiting this. Template literal is the way to go. So your initial code (which wouldn't work because it was a matter of getting the background line to reference the variable) was : ```yaml
type: custom:button-card
variables:
background: "/local/viewassist/announcebird.png"
template:

variable_template
body_template
card:
- background: center / cover no-repeat url({{background}})
- background-size: coverThe fix is:yaml
background: "[[[ return center / cover no-repeat url(${variables.background}) ]]]"```

#

Note the backticks inside the double quotes; those are not single quotes.

sneak peak of the latest home view 🙂 Not sure how I feel about the cards scrolling behind the footer menu. A bit messy with all the layers. Might try again with some blur but if I remember correct I could not get that CSS to work in the iOS app.

tribal galleon Jun 5, 2024, 8:20 AM

#

Could you apply some opacity to the background color of the footer menu in lieu of the blur?

zenith stag Jun 5, 2024, 8:23 AM

#

yes that's also an option. Allthough when I've tried it previosuly I did not really like the look of it. But well try it again for sure

#

Actually, the opacity with gradient was pretty cool:)

tribal galleon Jun 5, 2024, 8:37 AM

#

How do you show the last card? Does the z-index of the footer prevent you from interacting with it? Or do you have a "spacer card" at the bottom to compensate for the footer? Or does it scroll and the last card will be above the footer automatically?

zenith stag Jun 5, 2024, 8:39 AM

#

I'm using Layout Card and the very last row (which is empty), has a height of 120px

While I'm not sure exactly how to do it, I imagine with the right combination of cards, card_mod, and styling, you could put an invisible card with no tap_action on top of the map card. It would prevent any kind of zooming or scrolling though.

The custom:button-card supports a confirmation. It can be templated but it relies on JavaScript and not Jinja.
Tap_actions, in general, can have a confirmation but I don't think it can be templated. One option would be to use a conditional card. Make two cards: one for open and confirm close and another for closed and confirm open.
I'm assuming you have two magnets on your garage door. What happens when the door is stopped in between and it is neither open nor closed based on the magnet states... 🤔

More than likely, you really only need the lower sensor which will report when the door is closed. When that connection is broken, the door should be considered open. In fact, you can set the sensor's Show As to be a door and it will show open/closed states. This will also make it easier to automate later on.
The only reason I can think of adding a second sensor is perhaps if you wanted to set a "low open" position (like to vent heat). An automation could start opening the door, wait for the second sensor to make contact, and then issue whatever stop command you may have to the opener. (That's provided the sensor reports quickly enough.)

I'm trying to edit row-height in the new sections, and the CSS detects the rule from my theme, but it gets overruled by this default one. !important doesn't fix it either. What can I do?

tribal galleon Jun 5, 2024, 2:09 PM

#

@hidden needle To make a modification like that, usually you could use card_mod. But, layout-type cards can't be card_modded because they don't have an ha-card(?) section. Looking at the Raw Configuration of a Sections view, it is comprised of Grid cards and, therefore, can't be card_modded. I'm not sure if you can wrap a card-mod-card around the Grid cards to "enable" that kind of modification. (The card-mod-card is highly discouraged from being used in general and I have no clue what it would do to a Sections view so experiment at your own risk.)

Point is that I want that everywhere, not in a specific card. Hence why I made a custom theme just to fix that lol xD

#

I do use card-mod for plenty of cards, but I imagined the right way to do a full dashboard tweak was via a theme

tribal galleon Jun 5, 2024, 2:13 PM

#

I get that, but you're trying to make a modification to something that is not intended to be modified and probably is not supported with a theme variable. (At least not yet.) That's why the mention of trying with card-mod.

tacit cave Jun 5, 2024, 2:13 PM

#

Hardcoding a height is a bad idea anyways

hidden needle Jun 5, 2024, 2:26 PM

#

tacit cave Hardcoding a height is a bad idea anyways

Well, it's a weird thing the new sections do. Tbh don't know why that value exists at all. When removed or set to 0, Mushroom title cards compact themselves while nothing breaks. Not even the same cards containing subtitles. It's like a hardcoded min-height by default.

#

not sure where that --row-height variable is being used either. Can't find it.

tacit cave Jun 5, 2024, 2:26 PM

#

Yes, that's how HA does things with autosizing screens

#

the min height is defined to allow the best looking information

#

(on small screens)

hidden needle Jun 5, 2024, 2:30 PM

#

it's a new thing from sections AFAIK, or at least increased. I'm just trying to convert my dashboard to sections and this is just to achieve the same look. All I see it's that it enforces that blank space, same in desktop and mobile. If anything I'd say it's especially bad in small screens.

#

actually I see that I already had tweaks before sections. With sections it seems they just get ignored. Will try adjusting them

type: custom:mushroom-title-card
title: ''
subtitle: Living room
card_mod:
  style: |
    ha-card {
      margin-bottom: -15px;

yeah I think this is the issue. I can affect the ha-card as I'm doing. But the sections have this row-height value a few parents on top, which prob I cannot reach to mod.

Is there a way to profile/performance test a dashboard? I'm worried I'm maybe doing something stupid with custom cards on a particular dashboard/view and I'd like to track down what that is

Browser developer tools generally have some profiling features, you can see what's being called and where the time is being spent.

timid beacon Jun 6, 2024, 2:52 AM

#

Yeah I took a quick look but wasn't able to see too much

vast crane Jun 6, 2024, 2:53 AM

#

This wasn't what you're looking for?

timid beacon Jun 6, 2024, 2:58 AM

#

I wasn't able to find anything that stood out in there as a performance issue

#

I mean I can see auto-entities seems to be doing a lot, but I can't seem to pin it down to a specific card or anything

vast crane Jun 6, 2024, 3:28 AM

#

Is there a reason you expect to find a problem? Does it feel sluggish? The best thing I can think of to do is make sure cards don't update/render on every change of hass. Beyond that I would expect to see things mostly idle.

timid beacon Jun 6, 2024, 4:09 AM

#

I have a fire tablet that has been having a lot of issues recently. I don't know if it's the dashboard or the tablet. I do make pretty heavy use of auto-entities and card mod

tired quail Jun 6, 2024, 10:33 AM

Trying to configure GIT on a green box, to version my configs. GIT is not using my configured user.name, it is accessing my private git repo ssh://home.local/git/HSConfig.git with the username root instead of the one I have configured. Any ideas?

tacit cave Jun 6, 2024, 11:30 AM

#

configure git what?

subtle basalt Jun 6, 2024, 11:35 AM

#

Configure GIT on my green box, so I may version my configs, onto my own git server.

#

there is more detail here: https://community.home-assistant.io/t/config-git-for-vscode-editor/736628

tacit cave Jun 6, 2024, 11:39 AM

#

wtf are you following?

#

you can't install git on HA

#

If you want to use version control, the best way to do this would be to use a separate computer that links to your config

#

all you need in your config folder is git settings

subtle basalt Jun 6, 2024, 11:41 AM

#

GIT came installed, you can access it in the Studio Code editor and the File editor addon

tacit cave Jun 6, 2024, 11:42 AM

#

right, but then all you need is git settings and you use the button on the side

#

you just need to point it to a bare git repo for the remote source

#

there is no "installation"

#

regardless, this is an #add-ons-archived question, not a #frontend-archived question

#

as a sidebar to your question, you'll have a much easier time setting that up if you don't use the addon. Instead set up samba share, then on a separate PC, install git & vscode &git extension and go from there. You'll have access to all the VSCode menu options and things wont be burried, hidden, or disabled.

subtle basalt Jun 6, 2024, 11:48 AM

#

I am struggling to follow your instructions, do you know if this is actually documented somewhere?

tacit cave Jun 6, 2024, 11:48 AM

#

It isn't documented, you'll need to figure it out

#

the addon wasn't set up to do this

#

the addon forces you to use the command pallet to get things done because the environment is locked down.

Hi, in custom:button-card, is it possible to get the state from another entity than the primary one used for the card? I'm trying to do:

        view_layout:

        name: Days until next garbage collection
        show_state: true
        show_label: true

          ]]]```

lyric prairie Jun 6, 2024, 1:00 PM

toxic axle Hi, in custom:button-card, is it possible to get the state from another entity t...

You can access the state of any entity by accessing the states object.

label: >-
  [[[ if (states['automation.notis_sophamtning'].state == 'on') return "On"; else return "Off"]]]

toxic axle Jun 6, 2024, 1:01 PM

#

Ah! Almost got there with the syntax. Thanks 🙂

lyric prairie Jun 6, 2024, 1:01 PM

#

Or using the power of button-card

label: >-
  [[[ return helpers.localize(states['automation.notis_sophamtning'])]]]

This also translates the state according your language setting @toxic axle

toxic axle Jun 6, 2024, 1:02 PM

Awesome

toxic axle Jun 6, 2024, 1:29 PM

Another button-card thing I haven't been able to figure out. I want to define the entity from the person using the dashboard. Can this be done? Like so:
entity: person.merlin //This doesnt work: '[[[ return "person." + user.name ]]]'

tall monolith Jun 6, 2024, 1:32 PM

#

I just created a button card with person.tom and it worked fine

#

show_icon: true
type: button
tap_action:
  action: toggle
entity: person.tom```

toxic axle Jun 6, 2024, 1:33 PM

#

tall monolith I just created a button card with person.tom and it worked fine

Yes, but the entity should be dynamic depending on what user account is viewing the dashboard.

lyric prairie Jun 6, 2024, 1:33 PM

#

user.name can be Uppercase, and I am not sure if button-card really supports templating the global entity

tall monolith Jun 6, 2024, 1:34 PM

#

I usually use custom auto-entities cards when I want them to only show sometimes. I hadn't thought of doing it in a regular card

lyric prairie Jun 6, 2024, 1:34 PM

#

Just checked, you cannot template the main entity of the button card

tall monolith Jun 6, 2024, 1:34 PM

#

but also I'm the only one who ever looks at the dashboards

tacit cave Jun 6, 2024, 1:34 PM

#

you can template the picture element though

#

and the name

toxic axle Jun 6, 2024, 1:36 PM

#

Right right, thanks guys. I guess either showing the whole card(s) conditionally or template the specifics is the way to go then

toxic axle Jun 6, 2024, 1:37 PM

#

lyric prairie `user.name` can be Uppercase, and I am not sure if button-card really supports t...

Can it though? The entity is lowercased for me at least. Oh well

lyric prairie Jun 6, 2024, 1:37 PM

#

Oh correction, the newer versions can support it, but with some restrictions

lyric prairie Jun 6, 2024, 1:37 PM

#

toxic axle Can it though? The entity is lowercased for me at least. Oh well

Yeah it accesses the friendly name

toxic axle Jun 6, 2024, 1:40 PM

#

lyric prairie Yeah it accesses the friendly name

Maybe I'm not following, but I figured this would work since it's jsut the attribute that is uppercase, not the actual entity. But guess it doesn't matter in this case anyway 🙂

lyric prairie Jun 6, 2024, 1:41 PM

#

user.name returns the friendly name, so it can be uppercase. Since you want to use it in the entity_id that only supports lowercase, you need to be aware of that

toxic axle Jun 6, 2024, 1:42 PM

#

Ah, gotcha

zenith stag Jun 6, 2024, 3:12 PM

#

Hmm what are you trying to do here? Display the users name in uppercase?

toxic axle Jun 6, 2024, 3:47 PM

#

zenith stag Hmm what are you trying to do here? Display the users name in uppercase?

Show a personalized welcome message, show phone related sensors and stuff like that - where our entieties are named the same bar our individual names. Could probably just put them in conditional cards, but it would be more convenient just to be able to dynamically determine the person using the dash

#

To then be able to use stuff like entity.attributes in js templates

zenith stag Jun 6, 2024, 3:59 PM

#

And it can’t be done? Sorry trying to follow the thread but suddenly Bas started talking about ”uppercase” and I lost track:)

toxic axle Jun 6, 2024, 4:00 PM

#

No apparently the entities portion cant be templated

zenith stag Jun 6, 2024, 4:03 PM

#

But you can style the state in styles, if that is what you need

toxic axle Jun 6, 2024, 4:07 PM

#

Lets say I've got a card displaying my phone battery, steps counter etc. The entity used in the card is called sensor.pelle_phone. My wife has a phone sensor called sensor.lisa_phone. I would like to give button-card the entity sensor. + {{ user }} + _phone so that would show the phone info of the person actually viewing the dashboard

zenith stag Jun 6, 2024, 4:08 PM

#

Ah got it, makes sense. But then I suppose putting it in a variabe like Bas showed would make sense. If the variables can be templated. Have not checked that

toxic axle Jun 6, 2024, 4:14 PM

#

Did I get the syntax correct here? This is deep water for me 🥶

      - type: custom:button-card
        view_layout:
          grid-area: A0
        variables:
          myname: '[[[ {{ user.name }} ]]]'
        entity: '[[[ return "person." + variables.myname ]]]'```

#

If so, it doesnt work

dark dirge Jun 6, 2024, 4:15 PM

#

this part is confusing javascript and Jinja:
myname: '[[[ {{ user.name }} ]]]'

#

if the user variable is available, you can probably use
myname: '[[[ return user.name; ]]]'

toxic axle Jun 6, 2024, 4:17 PM

#

Yea, doesnt seem to work :/

tacit cave Jun 6, 2024, 4:24 PM

#

99% sure custom button card only gives you the user

#

which is just [[[ user ]]]

#

well, it's the user object

#

not sure what that entails

#

it may be user.name

toxic axle Jun 6, 2024, 4:26 PM

#

Yeah name: '[[[ return "Hello " + user.name ]]]' works for name, just not for entity - if thats what you mean

tacit cave Jun 6, 2024, 4:26 PM

#

it won't work for entity

#

entity is used to let the system know when/how to update the card

#

so any template that's allowed for it will be limited

#

i.e. it won't have access to user

toxic axle Jun 6, 2024, 4:28 PM

#

lyric prairie Oh correction, the newer versions can support it, but with some restrictions

Got it, but the idea was to try a workaround with a variable as Bas suggested here

#

But that does make sense

tacit cave Jun 6, 2024, 4:28 PM

#

right, but I mentioned long ago that the only way to do what you want is to template each field while omitting entity

upper dew Jun 6, 2024, 9:49 PM

#

that does seem a little closer https://imgur.com/a/1HTmbxh But not quite right

#

of course, it cannot be denied if its in the code. But it strengthens my idea that it might be a brightness situation rather than colour

#

Maybe I had better explain myself?

#

I am trying to use a mod called card-mod which has a cool feature that locks the card until you hold it. https://github.com/custom-cards/button-card?tab=readme-ov-file#lock-object

#

Which is absolutely awseome for my needs

#

but messes up the colour of the icon

#

as you can see here https://imgur.com/a/cGGgjpk it does not matter with a normal button. But for a button that calls a service the colour gets messed up

#

the mod has options to change the colour of the icon including specifying rgb values. But using the values you guys found ended up providing an icon that we percieve as not the same exact colour

vague blaze Jun 6, 2024, 9:58 PM

#

You may not get an exact match as I don't think you can passing in brightness or luminosity to the rgb() params.

upper dew Jun 6, 2024, 9:58 PM

#

well...

#

It looks like my other two choices are 1. live with it or 2. set all the icons on my entire home assistant to a new, different colour 😆

vague blaze Jun 6, 2024, 10:01 PM

#

Maybe? So, looking at the svg, the two colors used are #18BCF2 and #F2F4F9. The #18BCF2 roughly translates to rgb(24, 188, 242). So, you might be able to get close, but I'm not sure about exact.

upper dew Jun 6, 2024, 10:02 PM

#

yeah that looks brighter like this https://imgur.com/a/0q4ueMo

#

Okay you might have an idea if i pose this to you... if its fine with button toggles that are off but the problem is only present with "buttons" that call services rather than toggling switches.

#

well

#

im thinking what if the button that calls a service when tapped was an entity that was actually a toggle

#

that never turned on

#

even when asked

#

aka entity

#

I just tried something. If i set the entity of the button card from a dummy button entity i made with a helper to the same entity the on button is, the colour corrects

vague blaze Jun 6, 2024, 10:08 PM

#

So, a switch?

upper dew Jun 6, 2024, 10:08 PM

#

but then if i turn on the power they both go yellow, as you would expect

#

so I could do with a switch (yep) that never turns on

vague blaze Jun 6, 2024, 10:08 PM

#

So, basically, the button state (because it really only has one state), is being treated differently than a switch with static on and off states?

upper dew Jun 6, 2024, 10:09 PM

#

Yes

#

glad we are on the same page

#

i have been using input_button.dummy_button

vague blaze Jun 6, 2024, 10:10 PM

#

So, my suggestion is to raise that as an issue and see if the author can handle that differently. What it sounds like is that the state handling is different between buttons and switches (which it should be), but given the hold action, it should probably use the same logic.

#

At least when applying the color to the icon.

upper dew Jun 6, 2024, 10:11 PM

#

The mod is not... errm what do you call it

#

like

#

looked after

#

since 2023

#

The author bounced

vague blaze Jun 6, 2024, 10:11 PM

#

Ooooffff yeah, I see that now. 😦

#

Yeah, then a switch makes more sense... but, you would have to handle the resetting of the switch to whatever state you want in an automation or something so that it still acts like a button.

upper dew Jun 6, 2024, 10:13 PM

#

well it would be a dummy switch

#

maybe an automation

trigger = dummy_switch went from any state to on
action = turn_off.dummy_switch

#

I can only try, right

#

Seems to work 😜 not so much as a yellow flash

#

OH its even easier than I thought. The tap_action is not toggle anyway. It is call service. so the dummy toggle never turns on in the first place

#

so the automation is redundant

vague blaze Jun 6, 2024, 10:20 PM

#

Ha! Yay! Even easier then... so you have your solution?

upper dew Jun 6, 2024, 10:21 PM

#

Yep the solution was to create a dummy toggle and use that as the "entity" of the button card rather than dummy button

#

Thanks for your help 🙂

      dev_id: "car_gps"
      gps_accuracy: "10"
      gps:
        - "{{ states('sensor.corsa_e_latitude') }}"

@dry sparrow you need to run the service call you mentioned in #templates-archived

#

you can use #automations-archived on every state change of these longitude and lattitude sensors to run this service call

#

and then you will have a device_tracker.car_gps which you can place on the map

#

that's why I asked if the device tracker was already working

Hello, since updating to 2024.6 I'm having trouble getting the file notification service to work with a custom:button-card. I've setup the notification service in the integration and it does write to the file. But I'm using a template as message and it writes the template itself and does not evaluate it. When calling the service from the dev tools with the same parameters it works fine. This is my button code:

show_name: true
show_icon: true
type: custom:button-card
icon: mdi:file
tap_action:
  action: call-service
  service: notify.send_message
  target:

pearl roost Hello, since updating to 2024.6 I'm having trouble getting the file notification...

I don't know if custom:button-card is different, but generally any frontend card tap_actions do not support templates.
If you want to use templated actions you would need to create a script that runs your service calls, and put the templates in that script.

#

Maybe it supports JS templates and not jinja templates?

For some reason, I can't get an Entities card with tap-action to toggle a light with a transition

#

I can toggle the light with transition 0.1 (if i provide 0, the zigbee light ignores the transition property), when I use developer tools to call the service

#

however, this doesn't work:

type: entities
entities:
  - entity: light.niche_light_1_light
    name: Niche 1
    tap_action:
      action: call-service

pearl roost Hello, since updating to 2024.6 I'm having trouble getting the file notification...

I think the problem that you're running into is you're trying to use a Jinja template in a JavaScript-based card. I'm pretty sure the template is handled at the card-level before being passed into the tap_action. Try using JavaScript (which FYI, is not easy to work with date and time, IMO.)

type: custom:button-card
entity: none
show_icon: false
show_label: true
name: "Yours: 2024-06-07T23:34:13Z"
label: '[[[ return "Mine: " + new Date().toLocaleString()]]]'```I used a simpler version than the string you used. If you need that exact format, it can be done, but it is a bit more complicated. You can also use `.toISOString()` to get a similar format but I'm pretty sure it is based on GMT and not local time. The more complicated method uses the `Intl.DateTimeFormat` object which enables language-sensitive date and time formatting. [LINK](<https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Intl/DateTimeFormat>)
@vast crane Tagging you on this.
> Maybe it supports JS templates and not jinja templates?

label: '[[[ return "Mine: " + new Date().toISOString()]]]'```

Just an idea that might help. what if you made a script that did what you want with the transition. And then the button on tap action calls the service of the script (dont include transition parameters in the entity - only in the script).

I'll give it a go, but this would be considered a bug, no?

upper dew Jun 8, 2024, 9:36 AM

#

idk not a dev 🤷‍♂️

#

possibly

#

@brisk marlin you might have to make one script to turn on. one script to turn off. then an input toggle helper for it. then automations that run the script when the toggle helper state is changed. again one for on, one for off. (maybe you can skip the script step and have the automations triggered by the input toggle command the lights directly)

brisk marlin Jun 8, 2024, 9:42 AM

script to toggle works, however, for some reason this doesn't call the script (or at least, doesn't apply the transition)|

vital burrow You want a state instead of a toggle, right?

one sec i think i confused you...

'power' is just the title in this case

I already used a mod to get rid of the state for individual entities

but the title toggle remains

vital burrow Jun 8, 2024, 9:44 AM

You need no mods for that.

is there a smarter way?

Are you sure you are using the entity filter card, like you stated. That does not provide the switch all switch (edit: without a title - see below)

vital burrow Jun 8, 2024, 10:03 AM

And for showing the switch's state instead of the toggle, you don't need a custom card.

type: entity-filter
entities:
  - entity: switch.sonoff_1000c67596
    type: simple-entity
  - entity: switch.sonoff_1001d4d80d

Hey! Hopefully a very simple question... but I am struggling to find the answer 😄 on every screenshot I seem to see of a dashboard, each card seems to be enclosed in a box (as in you can visually see its surroundings/background).
Mine, are not. They just blend into the rest of the page.

Am I missing something really obvious to have the cards actually look like cards?

upper dew Jun 8, 2024, 10:19 AM

let us see 🙂

finite stream Jun 8, 2024, 10:22 AM

Sure, sorry I should have lead with that 😄

Each of these vertical stacks (there's only 2 there, one on the left and right), I expected to be somewhat enclosed

upper dew Jun 8, 2024, 10:27 AM

are you using a theme?

finite stream Jun 8, 2024, 10:28 AM

I am trying to, but for the sake of simplicity, there's no theme used yet (in that screenshot)

vital burrow Jun 8, 2024, 10:29 AM

It does not look like stock cards

#

But the vertical stacks don't have lines on their own

finite stream Jun 8, 2024, 10:30 AM

#

Oh sorry the actual elements are from Bubble Cards

finite stream Jun 8, 2024, 10:32 AM

#

vital burrow But the vertical stacks don't have lines on their own

Ah ha it'll be this. So I'd need to modify each stack for that "styling"

#

That makes sense, should have noticed that other card types do have the boundaries

upper dew Jun 8, 2024, 10:33 AM

#

i just looked in the docs of bubble card and found this:

#

  .bubble-icon-container {
    background: rgb(230, 128, 41);
  }```

#

maybe experiment with that?

#

i have never used bubble so i cannot be sure

#

actually i think that won't work

finite stream Jun 8, 2024, 10:34 AM

#

I don't think the issue is bubble itself, it's the vertical stack lacking the styling that other cards have

upper dew Jun 8, 2024, 10:35 AM

#

  .bubble-button-card-container {
    background: rgba(12,120,50,0.5) !important;

or within the stack?

upper dew Jun 8, 2024, 10:36 AM

I’d update your units to be vh, vw (view height and view width) instead of pixels because those scale. 20 pixels looks different across different screens/resolutions

tribal galleon Jun 8, 2024, 9:08 PM

@scenic current Do you need something simple like this? (I use this to show an icon in the top right corner of the screen when motion is detected. The z-index is just to ensure it is shown on top of the header, if it is visible; at least if used to but doesn't seem to work on top of the header even though it only has a z-index of 4.) yaml card_mod: style: | :host { position: fixed; top: 0%; right: 0%; z-index: 99; }

Can you use card mod with the default cards?

vertical-stack is not a card, meaning it doesn't have an <ha-card> element, but you can use mod-card for that ...

Hi, I'm having trouble with setting the transition property on the light.toggle service. When I call the service from Dev Tools, or through a script, it works fine (only when running the script from the Automations UI). When I call the service from an Entities card, it ignores the transition property, and if I call the script to toggle the light with 0 transition, it also ignores the transition property.

Does anyone know what's causing this behavior and if there's a workaround? Thread: #1248935141519265902

tribal galleon Jun 9, 2024, 9:15 PM

upper dew Yeah. its easy enough if i have buttons that have the variables already in place...

You could use a browser_mod pop-up to display the variables/parameters and a button on there would actually perform the call-service. This is a pop-up when I hold a button that controls a light group. It's still a work in progress, hence the poor layout, but you can see that I can set the duration that the lights will stay on. Basically, the same as the input_text that you've already discovered.
But, like RobC mentioned, it's not an easy process.

Just a matter of setting the URL to your HA and giving it a long-live access token. (Click on your profile in the bottom left > Security tab > Create Token)
Though I should note that it seems to currently be broken. (I just noticed it myself.) Looks like the fix is to use v1.39.0 and not v1.40.0.
Being able to use !includes and YAML anchors makes it worth it in the long-run. (Once I get it working again.)

#

Now I think it is working. Downgraded to v1.39.0 and change Host URL to include the port (10.10.10.2:8123).

dark dirge Jun 9, 2024, 10:58 PM

Output was saying something about websocket giving unexpected response; returned code 200. (Which I thought 200 = OK...) Saw a couple of other complaints about v1.40.0 being slow. Might give it another try. Perhaps my issue was simply the port number. Also noticed this:

The developer broke this integration back in January and stopped responding to reported issues. You'll probably need to roll back to 1.39.0.

Just curious, i have a WebOS tv that is integrated. whenever its on i see the app its using with a tv control card on my dashboard, can play/pause/etc and turn it off. when its off the TV card turns grey to indicate unavailable but i cannot turn it on, there is no button. I can turn it on with a WoL packet, which i can also create a button for. is it possible to add this button to the tv card?
