probably not, they're text weather forecasts
but ive tried other sensors
let me try darksky temp a sec
tacit cave
Are you tracking that sensor with recorder?
slender temple
i must be if the history graph shows when i click for more info right? or no?
tacit cave
no, not true
tacit cave
well
do you have recorder or not?
if you don't then it will track it by default
by it I mean HA
slender temple
i assumed recorder was built into hass.io and was the thing that shows all the data in the history tab
tacit cave
it is if you don't use recorder to change how you store your data
tacit cave
ah ok, then it's tracking it.
I believe
you have a hass.db file in your config folder correct?
not that exact name but something like homeassistantvdb.db or something like that
slender temple
yes
tacit cave
then you should be tracking it and it should show up when you make graphs out of it
when you look at the history, does it show line graph?
slender temple
yes, just checked - its in there
oh wait, let me switch to the default theme, maybe its there all along
tacit cave
Ah yeah that could be it
slender temple
lol thats it
tacit cave
Oh well!
slender temple
even setting the line color seems to override it
tacit cave

Ended up using custom:layout-card to allow for 3 vertical stacks
has button-card been updated to allow per state icons?

No

It looks like it HAS been updated to use entity icons, and covers have 2 icons based on state. will try that
nup. no cigar lol

It was always like that

didnt show an icon at all lol.
im trying every work around i can think of and this isnt working out haha

If you dont define icon it doesnt show anything tho

not unless you specify a device class

tacit cave
@winter knoll is your spelling corrrect?
slender temple
@tacit cave found the reason the sensor card wasnt showing, the accent color == background in the theme i had set. seems this overrides whatever you set in lovelace yaml as line color for sensor card. no idea why, but you can set it to anything and its replaced. just fyi 😃
tacit cave
good to know
raw brook
The line color?
slender temple
yep
winter knoll
@fast scroll i think so
slender temple
will the option to show the max/min etc from the original go back in?

state_topic: "stat/sonoff_garage/POWER"

payload_on: "ON"
payload_off: "OFF"
retain: false
you gotta find out the correct entity_id
go to the states page and look at all your lights
winter knoll
there are none
tacit cave
do you have auto update on? Heard there were breaking changes with hassio and the MQTT broker
That's about the extent I know. You should check your logs and make sure things are up to snuff

icy robin
Looking for some custom development help...I'm tinkering with creating a custom entity-row that could override the secondary-info text in a hui-generic-entity-row element. My challenge is that I cannot seem to access any of divs inside the hui-generic-entity-row element's shadow DOM. While debugging in the console, I can see the div element, but I cannot a cannot query it for further use. I'm just getting a started in Polymer, but have been following other custom examples. Now I'm stuck. Can a Polymer/Lovelace guru please provide some guidance? My simple prototyping code & config can be found here: https://hastebin.com/asawegurak.http
icy robin
I'm using shadowRoot, and if I print the contents of the hui-generic-entity-row's shadowRoot to the console, I can see the div(s) I want.
raw brook
The problem is that its not rendered yet
icy robin
But I cannot programmatically access it
I'm attempting to query after the "ready" event in my custom element...do I need to wait fora different event?
raw brook
if(this.card.updateComplete) {
await this.card.updateComplete;
}
This is used in the card Modder
icy robin
OK...looks like updateComplete is part of LitElement....meaning I should look into porting my custom Polymer.Element over to that?
icy robin
The CardModder example is interesting, but I'm operating on an entity, not a card. I went the Polymer route seeing as all other entity customzations were done that way.
raw brook
So Im not 100% on this @polar kelp is better at this subject. But the Generic Row is Polymer but the card it uses may be LitElement
So you may still have to use it
icy robin
But I can't find a entity customization that modifies a nested webcomponent.
Well, I appreciate the help - thanks. Will see if @polar kelp can provide some insight when available - he inspired me with his other examples!
polar kelp
I’ll get back to you after I feed my kids. But you need the await thing or updateComplete.after
icy robin
Sounds good - much appreciated!
primal verge
i assume you can do !includes in the lovelace ui as well since its still yaml?
because mines looking a bit too clustered. OCD cant handle it haha
raw brook
You can but only !include not include dir
primal verge
so individual files are fine but not directories of files. I can handle that
thanks ill play with it
oh yes. So nice.
polar kelp
Ok @icy robin the reason you can see stuff in the log but not access it is because chrome logs stuff by reference and shows what’s there when you read the log rather than when you’re writing to it.
icy robin
OK - so we do have a timing issue then
polar kelp
You need to wait for .updateComplete of the hui-generic-entity-row. When that resolves, the row has finished updating, and everything should exist.
.updateComplete is a property of and inplemented by the hui-generic-entity-row, so you don’t have to worry about making your thing a litElement.
icy robin
OK, great - thank you! I'll try putting an await for that in my code, and see if that helpd.
polar kelp
So javascript er.updateComplete.then(() => { let erDiv = ... etc }) should do it.
icy robin
Perfect! Thanks again. I'll give it a try.
er.updateComplete (and er.shadowRoot.updateComplete for good measure) is coming up as undefined
primal verge
Is there an obvious way to modify the title of cards if set?
currently its massive left-aligned
raw brook
No
icy robin
@polar kelp Did a little more troubleshooting...looks like HuiGenericEntityRow extends PolymerElement, not LitElement. Best I can tell, updateComplete is a property that only exists in LitElement. If true, do you have other suggestions on how to approach this?
polar kelp
Oh, right.
Then I suggest you study the _cardMod function of card-modder. In there I have a loop that checks if a card has loaded yet.
It must be run asyncronously, though, but that shouldn't be a problem
You could also try calling your update function from connectedCallback() instead of ready(). I'm not sure, but that might work.
If all else fails, you can run it every time the hass setter is called, until it succeeds... but that may take several seconds or so after render.
Nice to see someone trying to do this, btw. People keep asking me for it.
icy robin
Thanks, and hopefully I can help. Messing around with this is a good learning experience.
Unfortunately, it doesn't look like the shadow DOM is even initialized at the time that connectedCallback is called.
I'll look into some of your other logic and see if I can figure it out.

wondering if anyone out there has added a background image to their theme, I have not been able to get it to work. I can add it to my lovelace config and get it to work, but I have 2 themes, light and dark with an automation and would like to have 2 different backgrounds. this works in the lovelace config
background: center / cover no-repeat url("/local/background_dark2.jpg") fixed
but not in the theme.yaml file I have, any thoughts?
outer pendant
Does something like picture_elements but with a dynamic (camera) background exist? So something like camera_elements.
mild veldt
@outer pendant add an image camera element the same size as the card as a layer to the picture elements card

@mild veldt This is what I currently have: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/c5WrjdyXsT/
How would I do that?
Do I create a dummy image and then add the camera on top of that?
onyx kestrel
Is there a way to display the toggle button for active alerts, to allow them to be acknowledged? (it used to be like this in the old ui) https://www.evernote.com/shard/s5/sh/d64661a3-749c-447e-9368-a619f54d9882/2fb8c5c5e95ab214/res/f6987f4e-a4d3-4e99-810e-0e426387fabe/skitch.png
mild veldt
@outer pendant yeah use a https://www.home-assistant.io/lovelace/picture-elements/#image-element and set the z-index in style
Should really just add camera_image as an option for the background to align with glance and entity picture cards
I'll add that to my todo list 😃
@onyx kestrel check out monster card https://github.com/ciotlosm/custom-lovelace/tree/master/monster-card
subtle rune
@mild veldt I don't think there's a way for the monster card to show toggles specifically? I have alerts in a monster card and they're not showing the toggle
mild veldt
🤷
onyx kestrel
@mild veldt I can't find that either - my card is actually quite simple, an entity-filter on my alerts with state-filter: "on"
But the toggle is not shown unless I click on the entry
subtle rune
It's a difference in behaviour from old ui, now the state of the alert reads as a sensor and you have to get more info up to acknowledge. In old ui it shows up as a switch/toggle directly
mild veldt
ah, yeah, we don't have an alert entity row. I think that is just text row in the end
@onyx kestrel if you inspect that row, what hui type is it?
hui-text-entity-row?
onyx kestrel
hue-generic-entity-row
onyx kestrel
indeed
onyx kestrel
inside its hue-text-entity-row

its an attribute of an entity right?
raw brook

slender temple

wheat current
When do we get that? 😛
slender temple
ok no problem 😃
will it ever be a feature of the entity card? seems "natural" to add the attribute to the end
raw brook
@wheat current Not sure. I don't know if we will...
Well I take that back. It is now easier to do with the UI so maybe
Itll will be after we iron out a lot of the UI stuff
still a maybe
wheat current
Ah :/
I think it would save the state machine not having to create a template for every attribute 😃
slender temple
well no worries, thanks for the help, appreciate it, time to look at template sensors
raw brook
I agree. We want to make as many cards as we can that will naturally show all the attributes. Like a Vacuum card for instance
Or the Thermostat Card. So it shows all the info in a nice way instead of in an entities card. Of course there is no way to do them all
wheat current
Some is way better than none 😃

@polar kelp could I trouble you for more advice? I have a working custom entity-row element that overrides the secondary-info with an attribute value (https://hastebin.com/jolazatowu.http). However, it is just creating and overriding a hui-generic-entity-row. Ultimately, I'd like to be able to create and override any of the built-in entity rows, and I understand the logic that the entity card is currently using via create-row-element.js. But for now, I'm just trying to customize a hui-climate-entity-row. What I'm struggling with is how to programmatically create that entity row in my custom code.
If I update the template code I just linked to with a hui-climate-entity-row tag, it's content is completely empty. I also have a similar issue if I try to instantiate the same tag via createElement and call setConfig.
polar kelp
The contents are usually empty until its hass property has been set.
Also, I think you can find some inspiration here: https://github.com/home-assistant/home-assistant-polymer/blob/dev/src/panels/lovelace/common/create-row-element.js
icy robin
Would by template not handle that? I am passing hass.
polar kelp
Yes, it probably should
icy robin
That's exactly what I am working off of as an example - just can't seen to create a working 'standard' row
If I use createElement instead, how do I a set hass? I see the setConfig calls, but not an example of setting hass.
polar kelp
Just yourelement.hass = hass
icy robin
I'll try it that way - thank you.
polar kelp
For the fold-entity-row I cheated a bit. Instead of generating all the correct rows, I create an entities card, and pick the rows from that. That might be a solution.
icy robin
ah, OK

Hey everyone. I've customised a light with a local icon using entity_picture. How do I change the icon's color depending on the color of the rgb light? The icon is a black PNG on a transparent background. I've googled, looked at the docs and forum posts and just can't seem to find out how to do it.

entity_picture? Do you mean picture-entity? In which case, there are no icons...

@thorny verge i should have mentioned that the card-modder has multiple elements under it, not just lights. that code above code-modder blows up the custom card entirely.
thorny verge
Should work, I believe it just has to be before entitity, in same view. Maybe with card-modder pop-up has to be in card-modder (don't thing so), maybe try just moving it before the entitiy you are chnging the more-info for. In your original code, you had it after.

Ok would just be nice to have entities on a horizontal line similar to the glance card. Or having 2 button-cards side by side within an entities card. You can do it with the old custom-tiles ui
Happy to post examples
Kind of achieved what I was after by wrapping it all in a vertical stack card with horizontal stack for the buttons. Just gives a broken look as it doesn't appear to be on a single card although it is
brittle shoal
Does anyone know if it is possible to add spacers in horizontal stacks? For instance, Im using two vertical stacks with a horizontal stack under each with entity buttons in the horizontal stacks. The problem is I have three buttons in one stack but only 2 in the other so the buttons are not the same size. Is there a way to add a "spacer card" so all of the buttons are the same size regardless of how many are in the stack?
Alternatively, I tested out putting blank markdown cards in the stacks and it evened everything out perfectly. But, is there a way to change the theme of only the markdown cards to make them the same color as the back ground or transparent so they are not seen?

Hey guys, I've been pulling my hair out trying to get this sorted, but the default behaviour where the number of columns that cards show in is meant to be responsive and fill the window isn't functioning and will only show one column
Any information you need from me let me know and I'll get it!
tough quiver
Hey!
i have a (monster) card that shows all people considered home by bluetooth tracking.
I want the device_class to be "motion" however it is an input_boolean.
well rather i want it to be occupancy but its nbd
ideas?
kind shellBOT
tough quiver
actually come to think of it, it doesn't matter because they're not in the card if they're not considered home.
maybe it does matter.
nitpick-y but it'd be nice if it was the yellow/on colour. Can i force the colour of an icon?
broken mango
Can someone explain how lovelace put cards in columns? If I simply put cards in a view they appear in full width columns. But when I put cards in any stack lovelace puts cards in single column.
mild veldt
@broken mango you sure you don't have panel: true for your view where they are full-width?
broken mango
@mild veldt yes I'm sure
mild veldt
cards should not be the full-width of the panel unless you specify that, care to share a snippet of your config that has this behavior?
broken mango
There might be misunderstanding. Cards are not full-width of panel.
They are showing in one basic column in the middle of screen. And when I add another card in stack it show in the same colum. It half-width of column.
mild veldt
so you have a vertical-stack with horizon-stacks in it and adding multiple cards in the horizontal stack is creating your "half-width" cards? Is that right?
add panel: true to your view if you want to customize your layout
or you can try Thomas' card: https://github.com/thomasloven/lovelace-layout-card
broken mango
I haven't tried this combination
I had vertical stack. 3 cards took full height. Adding 4th should add new column. But instead LL made half-width cards
Than I tried horizontal stack. I thought LL should put each card in new column. But LL made put two cards in one column with half width and third in another column.
Could it be the problem with light card?
I've tried Tomaths' layout card but it gives same result
winter hollow
Stacks are 1 card
mild veldt
a vertical-stack...damn, bram is too quick
winter hollow
So it will always stay in 1 column
mild veldt
i by that i mean, we're both slow 😃
winter hollow
Hehehe
mild veldt
winter hollow
If you want lovelace to divide it over the columns, don't use stacks
broken mango
Thank you guys. Now it's clear
shy fiber
I'm on .83.1, and getting this. It just started happening, and was working before...
Unknown card type encountered: light.
{

"entity": "light.bedroom_lamp",
"hold_action": "more-info"

try clearing your cache a few times @shy fiber
shy fiber
@mild veldt Oh.... that worked. Thanks. I'm disappointed in myself.
near crypt
In lovelace it is possible to create a button which toggles between two scripts?
mild veldt
@near crypt you could specify one script as the entity and a separate call for hold_action
no that won't work
raw brook
You can also use a input boolean. Button toggles input boolean and a automation with condition fires a script based on the on/off state of the boolean
mild veldt
we pass the entity id, by default in any service calls...
civic sedge
also tryed the shopping list? I get
Received invalid command: shopping_list/items

@civic sedge do you have the shopping list component setup?

Nope - Thats then maybe why
mild veldt
that's 100% why

Does the card show an error if thats not set up @mild veldt
civic sedge
Just overread it in the release notes - Thaanks !
raw brook
or can the card know if its set up 🤔
mild veldt
It does not show an error. Should probably check for error on that first call. Add it to the TODO 😃

@leaden vapor I don't know that state of HAD, but LL is still evolving, so you'll likely need/want to evolve your interface with it. I think most people here will point towards LL as the best solution though, of course 😃

short zephyr
hi gus, i'm trying to add a button that siimply calls a notify service whats the best way to do this?
raw brook
Create a entity button. Have it call the service
short zephyr
but i'm unsure what to put for the service data, i get required key not provided @ data['message']
raw brook
Then you should add a message 😉
The service data is exactly the data you need to call the service
short zephyr
well i can send it via the gui like so
{"message" : "TEST"}
for the notify.scott_tv service
but can't seem to get the button to work, probably syntax but unsure on the issue
raw brook
if you click that in your HA right menu. You will get all your service. Chose the Notify service. Then what ever data you put in the JSON. You put in the service data
service_data:
message: This is a message
your notify entity
raw brook
Make it a script then
Make a script that does the service call and sends a message
Set the script as the entity id on the button
short zephyr
no idea how to do that, i have used HA for about 10 hours over 2 days
raw brook
then you call use call service
short zephyr
happy to learn but not sure how
raw brook
#330944238910963714 can help you there. Or you can look into the documentation https://www.home-assistant.io/docs/scripts/

I was editing configuration file trough nano, all of the sudden lovelace stopped working
I don't understand why
Could not find ui-lovelace.yaml in your config dir.
I tried restarting
Should ui lovelace be in the config folder by default?

@raw brook Thanks, that seems to work 😃 Also got the solution on how to dim a bulb using the picture element card?
Like hold down on the picture or something like that
scenic elk
I think I accidentally deleted lovelace yaml
There is no lovelace yaml in: /home/homeassistant/.homeassistant

@scenic elk It should be in the root of \config

hmmm... the only thing I notice is that you use es5 instead of latest javascript version; not sure if that's causing the issue
currently testing it
civic sedge
I set up javascript_version: auto
after i got some troubles with auto 3 to 5 versions ago
snow pelican
I do get some JS errors with es5, but nothing related to the calander
and the calander still works
so the only thing I can think of is that there's a problem with loading the external file (moment.js); either it can't access it (no internet/firewall), or it takes too long to load
you could try to download moment.js and access it directly from /local/ instead of unpkg.com
civic sedge

Can’t. But you could make your script smarter

well that seems stupid, i could do that prior to lovelace
split granite
So submit a PR to address it, rather than calling it stupid 😉
winter hollow
Use conditional to hide the off button when on and vice versus.
raw brook
Use an input boolean. Its very easy
Toggle the input boolean with the button. Create two automations with conditions (if boolean turned on vs turned off) then run the script needed for each one.

anyone know how to match bedroom without matching master_bedroom (or any other bedroom) with monster card entity filters?
vapid field
@viral sorrel depending on what exactly monster-card is matching, but you should try something like "^bedroom" ... to match bedroom to the beginning of the string
snow pelican
technically you should be able to first include all bedrooms entities (eg. with bedroom group) and then exclude the master_bedroom entity.
tacit cave
Wasn't there a card that created a 'second' title bar?
mild veldt
@viral sorrel what makes the exclude not ideal?
viral sorrel
another thing to track.. don't get me wrong.. it's relatively clean.. we only have 3 bedrooms.. but it also means that the matching isn't using regexp but just basic substrings

Then submit a pr to monster card

when you add a new custom card , does it require a reboot after , or a restart should do ? , trying to load swipe card , and is not working after a restart , that is why im wondering if im missing something ..

@raw brook you got that service to reload themes handy?
@calm rock no reboot, just reload
ctrl+f5
calm rock
ok, tks , i may have other prob , then
tacit cave
yep, chances are, the location is incorrect
some custom card developers hard code the location the .js file needs to be
So instead of you being able to use it anywhere, you need to make sure your directory structure matches what they hard code
Unless you made the card, then all bets are off!

where do you find out information about all those keywords. Also, that appears to just be a string. How does it know where to pull variables from?
raw brook
These are theme variables
That is all CSS
So the var(--base-unit) is looking for a CSS variable base-unit
Which is defined here --base-unit: ${cardConfig.scale};
The --paper-card-background-color is defined in the dom of each HA-card

So the css pulls vars out like $”” strings in c#. Is there a good ide to use for development or you typically just use f12 in chrome ?

I also post the issue here https://community.home-assistant.io/t/entity-not-available-error/82547
polar kelp
There is no way that error is caused by the update, unless it somehow stops a custom_component that's horribly broken from loading. speed_test is not a valid entity id.
The update could have added the warning, though, if you upgraded a few subversions at once.
Just remove the top item in your entity list.
vapid field
somebody here to guide me towards the right card to see what to do to show the entity dialog onClick() ? or the right docs, seem to be blind, but can't find it
polar kelp
What's this "card entity" you keep mentioning?
polar kelp
What do you expect that to do?
latent bramble
well I simply following this example, https://www.home-assistant.io/lovelace/entities/
polar kelp
I'm afraid you have misunderstood something. A card shows the entities you specify in the entities: list. They don't have to be related, and there's no overarching "card entity" (except e.g. for cards like thermostat which only handles one entity at a time).
What you have there is an entities card that (attempts to) display four entities, three sensors, and one speed_test-entity (which doesn't exist) but with the name replaced with "Internet Speed".
@vapid field I don't quite understand what you mean. Some cards support the setting tap_action:, and most have more-info as default action, which opens the entity info dialog.
latent bramble
I think I got what you try to say..
So I shouldnt need this line - entity: speed_test
polar kelp
That and the one below it
Most likely those two lines never did anything, but one of the latest updates added some missing error messages...

@vapid field are you talking about this: https://github.com/thomasloven/lovelace-popup-card

How can I show more then one card when I set panel true?
polar kelp
With a stack
vapid field
@mild veldt @polar kelp pretty much what I am looking for, at least now I understand more of the mechanism, at the end I am looking to something from the other direction.... let's say I have an entity_id "light.foo_bla", how would I trigger the default more-info dialog from within my custom-card for this particular entity_id.... or is there nothing like a "default" more-info ?
rancid schooner
@polar kelp https://hastebin.com/aloqehesus.bash what am I doing wrong?
polar kelp
@vapid field Oh. I see. Take a look at this: https://github.com/thomasloven/lovelace-long-press/blob/master/long-press.js#L87-L95
@rancid schooner Well, your first error is to not tell me what you Expect to happen, and what actually Is happening.
vapid field
uha great, thx @polar kelp
polar kelp
Another possible error is not specifying any entities for the glance card. That could cause trouble even if the card isn't shown.
rancid schooner
I want to build my cards in a way where I full up the whole width of the page.
polar kelp
@vapid field Line 96 isn't necessary normally. That was just because I wanted the dialog to pop up before you released the mouse button.

Hee, sometimes my thermostat card is increasing its font size to lets see 70px. Could it be because i wrap it inside a 'custom:vertical-stack-in-card' it looks like this: https://i.ibb.co/chLT9vs/ha-climate-lovelace.jpg

how do you submit a bug repor for something in lovelace specifically?

chilly zephyr
How do you debug lovelace and custom cards etc?
I'm using time-input-row made by @polar kelp, but it just says 'Entity not available'. I'm sure this is my fault rather then the javascript.
just trying to find out what
polar kelp
Are you 200% sure you typed the entity id correctly?
Does it work if you make just replace ```yaml
- type: custom:time-input-row
entity: input_datetime.my_timewith justyaml - entity: input_datetime.my_time```
chilly zephyr
Hi. checking now, sorry I'm intermittent on mobile connection.
currently is ```
- id: bedroomAlarmV2
type: custom:time-input-row
title: Alarm Clock v2
entities:- input_datetime.bedroom_alarm_mon```
polar kelp
The last two lines should be entity: input_datetime.bedroom_alarm_mon. It's one line, so it takes one entity.
I really should write some docs for that...
... and add date input...
chilly zephyr
ahh
yeah this works
- id: bedroomAlarmV2
type: entities
entities:
- input_datetime.bedroom_alarm_mon
Great stuff, that works, Thanks @polar kelp. It's not appearing 'IN' a card, just transparent over a background. But I presume I need to put it as a part of another group of entities etc.
polar kelp
Yeah. It's supposed to be used in the same way as this: https://github.com/thomasloven/lovelace-toggle-lock-entity-row

Guys, I was looking into the new "Simple thermostat" card announced on the forum. Since all "titles" like "Temperature" are hardcoded I was wondering if it is possible in general to use hass translations in custom lovelace cards, does anybody know ?

@nova summit there are a lot of cards that allow for cameras to be full image
There's also this: https://github.com/custom-cards/surveillance-card
nova summit
but not the card-modder ?
mild veldt
not sure why you're fixated on card-modder
mild veldt
card-modder just provides style
polar kelp
@civic glade I leave no guarantees whatsoever. Use at your own risk
Generally, for now, you should assume that anyone with access to your home assistant installation can control everything.
civic glade
@polar kelp i understand no guarantees just curios if it could be easily defeated from the gui on the tablet itself without the password for the authorized users
@polar kelp and awesome work on all these card men.
polar kelp
It's probably hard to defeat on a tablet. You would need access to a javascript console or object inspector or something. But the purpose is to avoid accidental triggering.
Thanks!
Then again... you can always open the more-info dialog and access the toggle in there...
civic glade
hmm can it be applied to a button card
polar kelp
If you want to disable certain controls for certain users, I'd suggest using this instead: https://github.com/thomasloven/lovelace-state-switch
civic glade
thanks will look at it.

Hello i got a lovelace card with an iframe and when i change anything it does an api call with javascript and when this call finished the page refreshes.
I now also loaded the same page in an iframe panel page and there the problem does not exist. Why is it refreshing in lovelace? anybody got an idea?

If i put a sensor into a "type: entities" the graph line disappear. Is this supposed to happen?

as opposed to what?

As opposed to the line showing up

Hi, i have an issue with the lovelace UI thermostat card it constantly changes the slider icon too a square box then becomes none responsive the only way in which I can revert back is if I click the reload icon in the bottom right. secondly I have an issue when trying to move the slider on my iPhone the page moves up or down rather than the temperature slider moving
somber egret
https://imgur.com/a/cmbUEDy This is the result of https://pastebin.com/FwLpfQ1m
If the sensor is just directly under cards: it shows the line, if it's under a type: entities the line doesn't show
Is there any other way to combine a sensor with a few controls that are associated with that sensor and still have the full graph?
Vertical stack might be my thing. Will try
So i fixed that with the custom:vertical-stack-in-card plugin. All is well
cedar saffron
@mild veldt
polar kelp
For future reference, @somber egret, that's not how the entities card is supposed to be used. It's pure lucky coincidence that you didn't get an error message.
The entities: of the card should be a list of entities or entity objects.
Take a look at https://www.home-assistant.io/lovelace/entities/ and https://home-assistant-lovelace-gallery.netlify.com/#demo-hui-entities-card
@cedar saffron Did you just want to wake him up, or did you actually want to say something?
@dim fern What version of Home Assistant are you on?
dim fern
@polar kelp the latest 0.83.2
winter hollow
It is a known issue, have seen an issue about it
polar kelp
It has been an issue, but I thought it was fixed... I can't find it on github now...
cinder rapids
@dim fern @polar kelp I have random issue too, I’m on 83.3 and the slider bar disappears on the thermostat control, usually happens after changing tabs so I just assumed is a cache issue. Latest hassio, HA and iOS app beta. If you think is a ios bug then I’ll create an issue on github.
civic glade
@polar kelp so with the state-switch when user A set the mode and when user B logs in they only have access to what user A allowed?
because based on the git example it looks like they both can change the modes
polar kelp
No. The gif is showing two things at the same time. Look at the right part of the windows. There are two different cards, "User A stuff" and "User B stuff".
So you can use it to make cards that are only displayed for one user.
polar kelp
Oh. That was much newer than the one I was thinking of.
civic glade
@polar kelp lol i saw the forest but not the trees
mild veldt
@cedar saffron wat?

@polar kelp @cinder rapids I guess its a bug with the iOS?

@polar kelp card- modder is there a way to make a camera show up in this card
left aspen
Hi all. Can someone help me with this? Before I could turn on the switch off the camera and now when I press in switch nothing happens.
raw brook
THe card modder is just a card wrapper that adds css styling @nova summit
nova summit
yes I like the style of the card and would like to put the camera view inside of it is this possible or should I give up on the idea
cinder rapids
Any plans to add the mini media control card to HA?
raw brook
THe card modder is just a card wrapper that adds css styling
Therefore if you have a card that does the camera view then you can wrap it with card modder
But if not then no
Have you looked at the surveillance card. Its custom
left aspen
Any idea?
winter hollow
Let me guess, pc with touchscreen?
Try touching with your finger 😉 The issue is being worked on...

Anyone know if they are going to release "multiple users=different front ends " when they make lovelace the default?
Im itching to have different front ends for me / wife / wall mount tablets
I made a beautiful picture element front end for tablets on the walls but I cant really use them because they dont work on phones
polar kelp
Probably not at the same time, but likely not far behind.

thorny verge
@polar kelp Can you tell me the difference or advantages of your state-switch-card over the conditional card? I use the conditional card a lot, so wondering if they are similar or one has advantages over the other I am not seeing.
polar kelp
It's just simplifies things a bit. With conditional you need one for each case, but it's enough with one state-switch.
Like one of my wall panel views has a config much like ```yaml
- type: custom:state-switch
entity: input_select.home:mode
states:
home: !include display/home.yaml
away: !include display/away.yaml
guests: !include display/guests.yaml```
thorny verge
So, you can handle the state_not case with default?
polar kelp
yep
thorny verge
Interesting, thanks.
The includes you have there, are they from your custom card, or is there a way now to split the yaml?
polar kelp
There's (almost) always been.
I use lovelace-gen, but !include is a built-in feature.
I'm not sure it can be used exactly like that, though. That's just an untested code sample.
My actual configuration is a bit more involved.
But not much.

So, I am trying to use the gauge card to indicate sector performance. Here's what I have - type: gauge title: Tech unit_of_measurement: '%' entity: sensor.information_technology severity: green: 2 yellow: -2 red: -10
the current value is -3.07
so, I was hoping the color will be red
but that is not the case
basically, I want to invert the colors - lower values should be red and green otherwise
polar kelp
Try yellow: 0 and red: -2. Weird things happen in programming when negative numbers are involved.
(No idea if it works)
polar kelp
With a quick look at the code it seems your first attempts should work...
raven nacelle
that is what I thought...it should be doing a simple comparison
fallen falcon
I'm getting very weird behavior from my first Lovelace attempts. I used the hassio migration add-on to give me a headstart, and my first simple mods went fine. It went awry when I tried to eliminate the "Home" view. I get erratic browser behavior. Sometimes View '1' shows up as View '2' etc. Here is my code: can anyone point to some obvious mistake I've made? https://hastebin.com/lecezeraju.m
raven nacelle
refresh cache.....the config seems fine
raven nacelle
also, you mean entities in view 1 show up under 2?
fallen falcon
its weirder than that....you click on for example "Lights" which should be View 1, but View 3 will show instead (while URL still says its showing View 1). Then you click on it again and this time its shows its View 3 . Totally erratic
i havent' figured out the pattern
left aspen
@winter hollow the question is for me? If yes, I don’t use Pc with touchscreen. I click on the switch and his won’t turn on/off
fallen falcon
@raven nacelle I just cleared Cache again.....no change. let me try a diff browser
raven nacelle
@fallen falcon THat does not make sense. Start with a simple config with only two views and one card per view and then extend
fallen falcon
i will do that. Was hoping to start from the migrated version to save time, but will start from a smaller subset and build up from there
btw, no different in Safari or Firefox. Screwed up in all browsers
@raven nacelle here is a simplified version that still is exhibiting some of the same behavior. In this case both views are showing up as tabs available to click, but both indicate in URL that they are view 2 when the first (Lights) should be view 1. Even odder, the actual content that shows (regardless of which tab you click on) is content from view 1. https://hastebin.com/hipatucoca.m
raven nacelle
fallen falcon
no difference with your code (I also had noticed the different placement of title). This might give you some hint as to what's going on: If i try to change the URL directly (from https://xxxxxxx.duckdns.org:8123/lovelace/2 to https://xxxxxxxx.duckdns.org:8123/lovelace/1 it sends me back to login screen. When I get through login it has successfully switched views but now both tabs are still 'incorrect' in the sense that they both point to View 1 now instead of View 2 (when one should load view 1 and the other view 2)
does that give you any ideas?
raven nacelle
don't know if it makes a difference, but try https://hastebin.com/ihazufabax.m
fallen falcon
that fixed it! so IDs need to be alphanumeric and if you try just numeric it screws up. Sounds like a bug
thank you!
i'll raise an issue in github
and just the View IDs are sensitive to this, not the Card IDs. Weird.
went back to my full lovelace.yaml and changed the View IDs to alpha and its all working perfectly.
fallen falcon
@raven nacelle, can you point me to the github project for the Lovelace editor? I've got some ideas and might want to try some things to see if I can contribute. (I tried to search but there are 339 repositories with Lovelace in the name!)
raven nacelle
fallen falcon
thank you
is there any process for ensuring I don't waste time on something someone else is already far along on? is there a roadmap document or something?

follow the discussion or check in #devs_frontend-archived
many of the issues there have the resolution and just need to be finished up
you can start with simple things to get your feet wet

@raven nacelle -3 would no show on the gauge card as it's below zero
That's why you seeing nothing
You could try setting your min and Max with min being negative
raven nacelle
- type: gauge
title: Tech
unit_of_measurement: '%'
entity: sensor.information_technology
severity:
red: -2
yellow: 0
green: 2```I tried a few combinations...but nothing worked
this is what I currently have (which is not working)
raw brook
Right because if the value is below the minimum default is 0 then it won't show on the gauge
raven nacelle
the current value is -3.86
raw brook
Right so my statement holds true
raven nacelle
how do I add the min there
raw brook
Try setting your minimum config variable to -5 or something
It's a variable on the card.
raven nacelle
under severity?
raw brook
Nope just on the card. Check the docs not at my computer
raven nacelle
ok...trying now
raw brook
Like Thomas said negatives are always weird so it may not work
raven nacelle
it worked 🎉
- type: gauge
title: Tech
unit_of_measurement: '%'
entity: sensor.information_technology
min: -6
max: 6
severity:
red: -6
yellow: 0
green: 2```so stupid of me to miss those min max 🤦
raven nacelle
and just to make sure there are only three levels of severity
raw brook
Yes
raven nacelle
Clearly not a good day to be looking at this chart 😃
raw brook
Lol Looks like you may have a problem haha
raven nacelle
that is an understatement
3 levels of severity are slightly limiting. Would be nice to have 5 levels like
raw brook
Yea. It is in a plan after this next release
It will be pretty easy to do. Just loop though each severity given and make it
color: number
Where you can specify your own color viea hex, rgb, pr just the color name
wow cant type
raven nacelle
in which case, even the number of severity levels can be changed right?
raw brook
right so it could be
red: 1
green: 2
purple: 3
blue: 4
orange: 5
AWESOME 🎉
