anyone using a fire 10 2017 with fully kiosk browser?

placid spade Jan 18, 2020, 11:47 PM

#

Not sure if this is the right section. But I have a couple wall mounted tablets and would like a different default view on each tablet and to hide the header and menu. I use custom header but I'm not sure if it is device or user specific. I don't want to lock out the header or get locked into kiosk mode on everything and not be able to configure UI.

Morning all

#

I've got a lovelace media control card to control a tv. But I can't turn on the tv with it

#

But when I call the media_player.turn_on service against this tv it works

#

The tv has a turn on action defined (magic packet WOL)

#

So I'm guessing the issue is with the lovelace card?

#

My guess is it's trying to toggle

alpine dagger Jan 19, 2020, 12:31 AM

#

is it possible to add a card that is a text-input field

#

that i can type something and press "say" and it will say out of alexa/google

tacit steeple Jan 19, 2020, 1:04 AM

#

Yes it's easy

#

You'll want an input_text, as well as a manual switch,

#

Then a simple automation that takes the input text and inserts it into a tts service call

alpine dagger Jan 19, 2020, 1:05 AM

#

ooh never touched automation

tacit steeple Jan 19, 2020, 1:05 AM

#

But to be honest i doubt you would use something like that in real life

#

Is there a particular reason you want to do it

alpine dagger Jan 19, 2020, 1:05 AM

#

IT's just for 'testing-fun' really..

tacit steeple Jan 19, 2020, 1:05 AM

#

You can do it directly with a service call

#

Look into service call in development tools

#

And tts for alexa/Google

alpine dagger Jan 19, 2020, 1:06 AM

#

Only reason i wanted it as a button is because
with a text field so i can use it on mobile

tacit steeple Jan 19, 2020, 1:08 AM

#

You can use it on mobile

mild veldt Jan 19, 2020, 1:29 AM

#

@placid spade you can specify by device or user or even just url

#

Check the docs for examples

#

@alpine dagger check out mini-media-player

#

It has options to put TTS input on the card

#

Much simpler and mmp is an awesome card

Hey! I'm trying to make a swipe card with buttons. Problem is that double_tap_action triggers on a single tap on mobile and hold_action is rather inconvenient as if you swipe slow it will trigger as a hold.

#

Here is some visuals!
double_tap_action:
https://youtu.be/EEiEUzgGu6k
hold_action:

Can this be accomplished in any other way? So that I can swipe without unintentionally pressing? Here is the card in code: https://hastebin.com/mapehazime.bash

Hi @polar kelp , still working on moving all my interface into popups, so far its looking great, question on using vertical-stack and horizontal-stack, do I need to use the hui as well when doing this as I can't seem to get them to render. Error is no card defined, but I definetly do have it defined.

vapid field Jan 19, 2020, 8:40 AM

#

@gusty wing can you not just have two horizontal stacks in a vertical stack?

polar kelp Jan 19, 2020, 8:52 AM

#

@livid oracle that means there’s a type: missing somewhere. Could be bad indentation.

Ok perfect I will check for that, thanks as always!

woeful ridge Jan 19, 2020, 9:36 AM

hi all! I've got a question regarding the yaml parser (im using Lovelace in yaml mode). So I split my configuration with views: !include_dir_merge_list lovelace/views/. Now to declutter it even more I want to use aliases (<<: *vacuum-buttons) which are declared in ui-lovelace.yaml. This setup gives me an error, since the alias is not found. Is there a way around this?

polar kelp Jan 19, 2020, 9:58 AM

#

No. Node anchors must be in the same file.

Is there a way to use navigate commands to jump to different cards within a view ? Rather than to a different view ?
Like a href=“#tag” type behaviour. Either a standard card or a custom card of required.

wheat current Jan 19, 2020, 3:49 PM

#

Not really, but you can probably convince @atomic glacier to help you get something like it using browser_mod and popup-card

crystal patrol Jan 19, 2020, 3:50 PM

#

@wheat current @atomic glacier thanks. The purpose is to have a view that is a media remote. It has several panels; navigation. Channel picker. Number pad. Etc. I want to show the remote. And jump between the panels using buttons the the remote. Maybe pop ups are the answer. Open to options. Thanks !

@mild sierra posted a code wall, it is moved here --> https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/yhfcjwD6RW/

vapid field Jan 19, 2020, 4:36 PM

#

ah that's a wall now! ok.. too many lines lol .. Question again -

Hey, Is it normal for the lovelace UI YAML to be all "janked" ( wrong order ) when you go to edit it in a manual card? I could start out with it all in the correct format and then it just starts to flip around.. It will still work but it's not in the right order.. example https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/yhfcjwD6RW/

#

It makes going back an editing just a pain in the ass.. really need to look at it , can't just go in and start adding or it will break everything...

dark dirge Jan 19, 2020, 4:38 PM

#

Yes, it alphabetizes

vapid field Jan 19, 2020, 4:43 PM

#

Is there a way for it to stop doing that?

#

Why would it want to alphabetize the format?

wheat current Jan 19, 2020, 4:44 PM

#

No, that's how it works

vapid field Jan 19, 2020, 4:44 PM

#

looking at a few of my cards, it's not alphabetic order..

#

Yea that didn't make any sense to me @wheat current .. Do you know how it works?

#

It makes it pretty frustrating to have to go back and want to edit a card that's 1000 lines long..

#

😦

#

My guess was that I am doing something wrong..

wheat current Jan 19, 2020, 4:49 PM

#

1000line card, yeah that sounds wrong

vapid field Jan 19, 2020, 4:49 PM

#

lol why?

#

My main " dashboard " has 3 cards I have formatted to work with my mobile device very nicely..

#

2 cards are 400 lines, the others about 750 right now.. and i'm just getting started..

#

No issues with anything else other than the formatting change.. I should of just done this all in a manual YAML and not the lovelace UI but .. I started months ago and by the time I knew it tinkering here and there when I have time it's gotten to this..

#

https://fastshare.space/28cb0d375RS.png

#

what my mobile page looks like..

#

but.. back to the main question, is a bug or feature that the lovelace UI will automagically reorder formating?

wheat current Jan 19, 2020, 4:57 PM

#

Just just how it works, not a bug, not a feature

#

accept it, or use YAML mode

#

🤷‍♂️

vapid field Jan 19, 2020, 4:58 PM

#

or submit a feature request? 🙂

#

lol

#

Seems very silly to reformat the code in the wrong order ..

wheat current Jan 19, 2020, 4:59 PM

#

it is formated in the correct order 😉

vapid field Jan 19, 2020, 4:59 PM

#

I assume it's something to do with the way it formats it in the lovelace.yaml file and how the UI paraphrase's it

#

The correct order that maybe lovelace wants to read it in..

wheat current Jan 19, 2020, 5:00 PM

#

not a lovelace thing, not a HA thing, this is how machine generated files are made

vapid field Jan 19, 2020, 5:01 PM

#

right so it's what I mentioned above, how the file is written and how the UI is paraphrasing it..

#

Bad design.. :/

wheat current Jan 19, 2020, 5:01 PM

#

No

vapid field Jan 19, 2020, 5:03 PM

#

It seems so, If the files can be written in the " correct " format .. Remain in the correct format until what it seems like a restart of HA

#

So it's not like the cards are written " janked " to begin with..

vapid field Jan 19, 2020, 5:06 PM

#

Seems like a feature request to change that functionality would be best for all users in the long run..

#

Lot's of people who would love to use HA but are not code junkies but want to get as much functionality out of the software would not be able to in this state.

#

IMO that is..

#

thanks again sir.

at least I know it's not my mistake causing it now..

Anybody know how to hide the left nav, completely? Maybe with a query string parameter or something? I want to have some wall mounted tablets that are fixed on "http://hassio.local:8123/alarm" only - but the left nav is visible. I tried hiding it with CCH, but if my start URL in Fully Kiosk is the URL above (and I am logged in with an "exception" user that has the left nav hidden), then it seems as if the exception is bypassed, until I click on the "overview" tab... then the nav is hidden....

hi :) I'm jumping between issue in my lab, and i'm hopping this one could be a quick fix.
Does any of you know the why and how of this error page in lovelace ? pop up around once a day, and the only button won't do anything. Can it be linked to custome Header ?

i don't use the community plugin, if you didn't create a folder, you should be good with a lovelace relaod, if you or the community plugin did since the last restart, you need to restart HASS for it to know those new folder

@cursive quail Go back to where you installed it, and click the "add to lovelcae" button. as for the folder, it is correct https://hacs.xyz/docs/categories/plugins#custom-view-community_plugin that they do not match.
@graceful ether generally you need to restart HA for it to know of the new folder (www), that does not apply for HACS.

#

@bright swallow https://www.home-assistant.io/docs/frontend/browsers/ There are reports that devices running with iOS prior to iOS 10, especially old iPads, are having trouble.

#

There are issues with iOS prior to ios11 as well specifically custom cards

sacred quarry Jan 20, 2020, 10:08 AM

#

@livid oracle the "height: 100" should be at the same level as "name"

#

Example:``` name: Load
more_info: false
height: 150

#

the default height is 150

livid oracle Jan 20, 2020, 10:09 AM

#

@sacred quarry Hmmm I tried that didn't seem to work

sacred quarry Jan 20, 2020, 10:09 AM

#

well not sure you tried "100" or "100px"

#

the second wouldn't work as far as I know

#

Oh you're right, actually that option set the height of the line graph, not the card

livid oracle Jan 20, 2020, 10:11 AM

#

yes 🙂 thats kinda what it looked like to me

sacred quarry Jan 20, 2020, 10:12 AM

#

So card-mod it is, but not sure how to help you with that, sorry

#

instead of card:

#

try ha-card:

livid oracle Jan 20, 2020, 10:13 AM

#

OK, yeah I can try that but wanted to ask first

sacred quarry Jan 20, 2020, 10:13 AM

#

Usually the one I use (that I found) are formatted like this```
style: |
ha-card {
padding: 16px !important;
}

#

So adjusting it to your specific case might work

livid oracle Jan 20, 2020, 10:16 AM

#

I was going to try also to put the graph into a custom button card

#

I see some are using that but I couldn't find a very good example.

sacred quarry Jan 20, 2020, 10:19 AM

#

I guess it's just a css matter, but not sure... Maybe reducing the size of the graph might help.

#

Otherwise I guess you need to wait for Karl on the forum to reply

livid oracle Jan 20, 2020, 10:22 AM

#

No problem I appreciate you helping me 🙂

Quick question for those that use Custom UI - Is it possible to detect the media_player source (for example, the ADB device based Shield) and then use that in a customised template in order to change the entity icons based on the source e.g. Netflix, YouTube etc

@mild veldt thank you, I suppose this is written in configuration.yaml?

mild veldt Jan 20, 2020, 2:08 PM

no

#

Lovelace configuration is done via the UI or if you explicitly set Lovelace to yaml mode, in ui-lovelace.yaml

#

You already said you changed the settings? So you should know where this is done

full sand Jan 20, 2020, 2:16 PM

Yes, but this was via the custom UI. I didn't realise the user management for "custom header" was also written in the lovelace UI.

how to fix that text? https://i.imgur.com/sluKWq9.png

mild veldt Jan 20, 2020, 3:47 PM

#

@lament terrace use an input_boolean and conditional card to wrap the thermostat card

#

e.g.

type: vertical-stack
cards:
  - type: entity-button
    entity: input_boolean.show_thermo
  - type: conditional
    conditions:
      - entity: input_boolean.show_thermo
        state: 'on'
    card:
      type: thermo

greetings. I'm breaking up my ui-lovelace.yaml file into separate !includes to make things easier to manage. Specifically, each 'tab' section gets its own file. If I make a change to one of the tabs, refreshing the browser doesn't show the new changes. I have to re-save the unchanged ui-lovelace file for the changes to show up in my browser. Is there a cache somewhere that I need to disable?

It's always worked for me by going to dotsvertical and Refresh

humble night Jan 20, 2020, 9:23 PM

That seems to work here too. I was just Refreshing/F5 the browser tab. That worked well when everything was in ui-lovelace.yaml. Guess there's some stuff on the back-end that needs to happen when using !includes. Thank you 🙂

Hi, is there anyway to resize a vertical stack card?

#

it looks so small compared with every other cards

#

@gusty wing how do you mean? looks the same to me

thin linden Jan 21, 2020, 7:11 AM

#

Hi, is there a way to enforce the refresh of Lovelace scripts in the Android app? It is caching aggressively as I changed something yesterday and still doesn't show up in the frontend. I successfully tested in the browser by force reloading

#

I already tried deleting the cache through Android settings, and even deleted the whole app data

polar kelp Jan 21, 2020, 7:23 AM

#

In the ios app there's a button at the bottom of the in-app settings to clear frontend cache.

#

But using a version number is a good trick that should work: https://github.com/thomasloven/hass-config/wiki/Lovelace-Plugins#2-update-the-version-number-in-the-resources-section

thin linden Jan 21, 2020, 7:35 AM

#

@polar kelp that is a good trick thank you! How does this work in combination with Hacs?
BTW the Android app does not have the clear cache thingy

polar kelp Jan 21, 2020, 7:48 AM

#

Personally, I never use the URLs hacs tells me to use, because I like the caching. Instead I use /local/community/...etc... which is where hacs stores the data. If you do that, it's no problem.

#

I don't know how hacs would react to a trailing ? in the url, but I think it would take it well.

thin linden Jan 21, 2020, 9:14 AM

#

@polar kelp I have directly edited the js of a community plugin, and adding a version trail doesn't do anything. No matter what I do I get the old version, even in the browser

polar kelp Jan 21, 2020, 9:16 AM

#

There's a js.gz in the directory too. I think that's the one that's actually served by hacs.

@crystal patrol Take a look at how my browser-mod scripts are here, https://bit.ly/2G68z83 , this a basic example of what you are asking to have the popups open and close any other that may be opened previously. That would allow you to display the remote and use the popups for the menu cards/panels, unless I'm missing what you are asking...🤔

cursive quail Jan 21, 2020, 9:25 AM

I have added an image to www/local/test.png

#

Did you just the www file?

cursive quail Jan 21, 2020, 9:26 AM

#

do I nee to change some sort of CHMOD filerights?

polar kelp Jan 21, 2020, 9:27 AM

unlikely

local/ in lovelace is www/ in reality. So www/local/test.png translates to /local/local/test.png.

@timber locust There used to be a plugin for that, start-page-chooser or home-page-picker or something. Check here http://github.com/custom-cards. Or maybe compact-custom-header has that functionality nowadays...

how can I install such a "card"?

if you stack the cards, you can make it smaller.

broken marsh Jan 21, 2020, 4:21 PM

#

How?

raven nacelle Jan 21, 2020, 4:21 PM

#

User horizontal or vertical stack https://www.home-assistant.io/lovelace

#

which basically would combine multiple cards into one

broken marsh Jan 21, 2020, 4:27 PM

#

Hmm.. I put a media control above and below but its not getting smaller

mild veldt Jan 21, 2020, 4:32 PM

vertical stack won't make it smaller

#

it seems to be missing in the docs but I'm fairly certain there is an aspect_ratio option

raven nacelle Jan 21, 2020, 4:32 PM

#

horizontal stack works

#

      - type: horizontal-stack
        title: cameras

            entity: camera.driveway

iantrich, yes, but that doesnt really make it smaller

mild veldt Jan 21, 2020, 4:34 PM

aspect_ratio absolutely makes it smaller and it is an option https://github.com/home-assistant/home-assistant-polymer/blob/dev/src/panels/lovelace/cards/hui-picture-elements-card.ts#L90

broken marsh Jan 21, 2020, 4:34 PM

But the horizontal cards was a nice hack. Thanks 🙂

#

iantrich, not if I want to keep the real aspect ratio. Or perhaps there's something I'm not understanding. My stream is 9:16 and I've set the aspect ratio to 9x16.

raven nacelle Jan 21, 2020, 4:36 PM

@mild veldt aspect_ratio is not documented for stack cards

I thought it was only available for iframe card

you cannot, you could try card-mod to restrict the height, but that can be hit or miss. have not tried on a pic card

atomic glacier Jan 21, 2020, 5:40 PM

ohh the style element does not even exist there, it's only on the divider

(string)(Optional)

Style the element using CSS.

Default value:

height: 1px, background-color: var(–secondary-text-color)

so I tried that value (but now I see it is only for the Divider)

I have a few scenes which I would like to put on buttons in lovelace, but to stick to my theme i would like the buttons to change (either icon, or image) when pressed.
But as far as i know scenes only have a 'scening' state, so a state_image or state_icon won't work.. is there a way to do this?

#

currently its hard to tell which scene is pressed last, as there is no indication on the button, so another way to tell on the frontend which scene is active would be an option too.

Hi! I have a problem where in my Lovelace config I use a picture-elements card containing all of my other stuff. Everything worked great adding images etc, but when I tried to add type: weather-forecast, I just said "unknown element type", well that's weird I thought and got a custom weather card instead, worked like a charm. Next step was to add a type: map, voila, same thing again: "Unknown element type: map". Anyone encountered this before?

mild veldt Jan 21, 2020, 8:56 PM

#

yes, those are not element within the picture elements construct

#

https://www.home-assistant.io/lovelace/picture-elements/

#

@haughty pulsar now while that is all true, you can work around this and use any core card or row in picture-elements by changing your type to
type: custom:hui-<card type>-card>
e.g.
type: custom:hui-map-card

AFAIK you have to add that in customize.yaml @winter blade in order to assign a picture as an icon

like so:

this does not seem to work, any ideas?

/local translates to /www

More specifically, it refers to www/ in your config folder (https://www.home-assistant.io/docs/configuration/) see https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/http#hosting-files

half cairn Jan 22, 2020, 7:45 AM

#

Maybe Im asking my question the wrong way as there has been no response..
I would like to have an indicator (icon, image, whatever) to show which scene was last used, is that possible?

#

I tried with a picture card, but the state of the scene always seems to be 'scening'

split granite Jan 22, 2020, 7:53 AM

#

May be worth checking to see if last_changed or last_updated change when the scene is used - https://www.home-assistant.io/docs/configuration/state_object/
For example, put the following in devtools -> Templates

{{ states.scene.your_scene.last_changed }}

#

If either of those do show the last use, then you've got options for a template sensor

#

If not... you'll likely need to have the scene turn on an input_boolean, and an automation turn it off immediately - optionally updating an input_datetime to reflect when that happened. Then you can use that input_datetime - or time of last change of the input_boolean in a template sensor.

To format your text as code, enter three backticks on the first line, press Enter for a new line, paste your code, press Enter again for another new line, and lastly three more backticks. Here's an example:

howdy all! I'm fighting some sonoff switches that won't seem to update their status in lovelace. I am subscribed to tele/computer_desk_plug/LWT which is the "availability_topic" in my configuration.yaml. I see a payload of "Online" come in each time I subscribe, but no other time. is this how this is supposed to work? is there something else I can check to find out why my switch status isn't being reflected correctly?

mild veldt Jan 23, 2020, 3:41 AM

#

@trim marsh most likely it is not a "lovelace-thing", but rather your device itself. Developer Tools -> States will show you the current state of all your entities. If not updating there, question for #330944238910963714

trim marsh Jan 23, 2020, 3:42 AM

#

@mild veldt developer tools also reports "off" incorrectly...it's the plug for the monitor I'm looking at 🙂

#

also, I've been in #330944238910963714 for awhile...lots of folks are reporting issues with incorrect status or device control at the moment on switches, bulbs and even wled strips

#

cloud integrations seem to be working ok

mild veldt Jan 23, 2020, 3:45 AM

#

you could try turning on debug logging and see if states are being reported on the backend, but I strongly doubt it is a frontend issue

trim marsh Jan 23, 2020, 3:48 AM

#

@mild veldt thanks. I'll check that out too. everything at every other level seems right...bug hunting I shall go!

mild veldt Jan 23, 2020, 3:49 AM

#

not sure what other levels you mean?

#frontend-archived says it's #551843800209686539, #551843800209686539 says it's #330944238910963714 and #330944238910963714 says to ask #frontend-archived

#

no worries...I'll keep digging and find it eventually

#

I really just need to know what the switch card is looking for to determine if an mqtt switch is "on" or "off" to set the toggle appropriately

#

if I can figure that out, I can work backwards and find the issue

junior cave Jan 23, 2020, 9:18 PM

#

now in a correct channel 🙂 hey , hope you guys can help. i am toying with the idea of casting lovelace to chromecast (TV). got that working BUT it casts just default view and I am not able to scroll or interact with the dashboard. Related to this, is there a way to cast a specific card or I need to create e.g. a special with with the info I want to display?

mild veldt Jan 23, 2020, 9:26 PM

#

@junior cave you can cast specific views

#

how would you expect to scroll on a TV?

#

there's no input

junior cave Jan 23, 2020, 9:28 PM

#

@mild veldt OK, at the moment i have everything added into one (will sort it out a bit later once I have most of the things). But i am getting a feeling that I cannot scroll 🙂

#

well, home assistant casts chrome tab, right?

mild veldt Jan 23, 2020, 9:28 PM

#

yes...?

#

you need a touch device, like home hub

junior cave Jan 23, 2020, 9:29 PM

#

so in principle, it should mirror what i have in that tab

mild veldt Jan 23, 2020, 9:29 PM

#

wait, no

#

it casts the lovelace view

#

it does not cast a tab

junior cave Jan 23, 2020, 9:29 PM

#

plus my TV is "smart" (Sony/Android TV with chromecast built in) and the remote generally works

mild veldt Jan 23, 2020, 9:30 PM

#

it is not supported

junior cave Jan 23, 2020, 9:30 PM

#

ah ok, that might explain it, it just shows in the browser, it is casting the tab

#

so i thought that it would be a mirror or something.

#

thanks @mild veldt for the clarification, will continue tinkering. One of the things I wanted to see, if I could "stream" my home camera feed to chromecast this way.

#

will try to do that with a separate view

proud patrol Jan 23, 2020, 9:43 PM

#

the docs for Markdown didn't help me along, but I'm not sure I'm searching for the right thing.
So, I have a sensor (e.g. sensor.beancounter) and I want to extract the current value from this and display as text somewhere. I don't want the graph that the sensor card has. Any ideas?

split granite Jan 23, 2020, 9:45 PM

#

Extract the state or an attribute?

#

You can just display the state in any card

proud patrol Jan 23, 2020, 9:45 PM

#

would the state be the value then?

split granite Jan 23, 2020, 9:48 PM

#

The state is what you see under State for the entity in devtools -> States

#

If that's the value you want, then you've nothing to do other than add the entity to a card

proud patrol Jan 23, 2020, 9:50 PM

#

that is exactly what I want. Thanks, I'm a bit new to this. I wasn't aware of the States view.

@junior cave you can expose cameras to Google directly

#

#

No need for Lovelace for that

#

yes, feed google direct video for their facial recognition

junior cave Jan 23, 2020, 11:18 PM

#

hmm, how would i go about that? this is a fairly cheap chinese camera (babyfone) which has ONVIF support (so I can see it in HA). I don't think it has direct support for Google Home app

mild veldt Jan 23, 2020, 11:20 PM

#

No it is still via HA

#

I assume you have nabu casa as you were doing cast?

junior cave Jan 23, 2020, 11:22 PM

#

no subscription yet, just configured duckdns with custom port and lets encrypt cert and it worked

#

but i am thinking to enabled google assistant component down the road (got a home mini lying around). Last time i did about 1 year ago, it was a bit wonky, perhaps now will be better

Guys, would you mind give a feedback? Better with entity fold or entity already "unfolded"? This is gonna be just a thermostat view, for the "per-room" view it will definetely be entity fold to save space... https://imgur.com/a/wXXjsEs

mild veldt Jan 24, 2020, 3:33 PM

#

@sacred quarry that's the whole view?

#

if that's all there is on that view, I don't see a reason to fold it

#

how often are you changing that schedule though? probably not often. in which case, maybe having the sliders doesn't even make sense and you could just have a single row of buttons that brings up their respective more-info cards to adjust when needed

#

that would be "clean"

#

📎 unknown.png

#

yeah, much prefer that, personally

#

could use custom button-card and template the names to be the values they are currently set at

vapid field Jan 24, 2020, 3:46 PM

@sacred quarry I like it more unfolded. interested what you are making though, a scheduler for thermostats?

sacred quarry Jan 24, 2020, 4:10 PM

#

Thanks @mild veldt , that's actually a nice idea 😄

#

Yes @vapid field , the idea is that

#

I did some work in the past two hours to have a little more "fine control" over timings and temperatures, so for now it looks like this: https://imgur.com/a/k6aulTE

#

I will probably try to follow Ian suggestion and see what can I achieve 🙂

vapid field Jan 24, 2020, 4:15 PM

#

good luck with it! just bought my first thermostat yesterday and was looking at doing some automations now 🙂

sacred quarry Jan 24, 2020, 4:15 PM

#

Maybe a mix of the two things, where you can see the schedule and on "tap" get the more-info where to edit configs

#

Thanks @vapid field , I already made one similar for my father and it is working perfectly for him, I am basically just improving it with more timings and some kind of better view/management

#

Actually, to be precise, at my father he removed his old thermostat and only added a Sonoff TH16 which he uses to turn on the heating (just send the signal, not the actual 220V) and his temp sensor, so the sensor send the data to HA and HA takes decision based on the configuration (all driven by automation) to turn on or off the heater

feral pilot Jan 24, 2020, 5:30 PM

ponder is is possible to make a action confirmation conditional? google didn't help me on this quest. the idea is that the powerplug for my 3d printer queries the octoprint status and if the printer is printing, ask me if i'm really sure i want to waste a few hours of printing

mild veldt Jan 24, 2020, 5:34 PM

@feral pilot not with the one in core, unless you used a templating wrapper. I have a more robust one that has conditions, however https://github.com/iantrich/restriction-card

rustic whale Jan 24, 2020, 5:41 PM

#

shameless copypaste
Is there a smarter way to move these "cards" around, cause the logic in moving them utterly escapes me. Small 1-line cards displaces 3 bigger cards - into a row with 5 big cards..
So now I have 2 small, 2 large, 5 "giant", in each their own row.

Would be nice to disable the auto-moving between rows, and just place things as I'd like to place them - Manually moving up/down, left/right.

[18:31] Nighty: .. do I just need to do it all in the text editor? Hm. Could/would that work?

I have a dimmer added to a card in the UI, but if I toggle the light it doesn't come on. Also the toggle in the UI flips itself back to off
however if I call the light.turn_on service, then the dimmer works as expected
but UI still shows the light as off... I used the same entity for the card and when I manually called the light.turn_on service

@mild veldt cool! Didn't know that. If I understand correctly that will also allow me to define custom CSS?

rustic whale Jan 24, 2020, 8:13 PM

#

After trying to play with what you wrote earlier, @mild veldt -- Am I right to guess that the UI is still a work in progress? Cause this seems... messy. At best. Or, is it for an older HA version?

Even directly copypasting the code it just ends up with.. giving me 8 catogories named 1 through 8.
Both layout-card & card-mod was enabled.

At best I end up getting the first 'card' taking up the entire space (or a "Invalid entity ID at position 4: break"), at worst I end up "losing" all my categories, till I remove the coding again.

mild veldt Jan 24, 2020, 8:15 PM

#

@vapid field I don't recall what I pointed you to

#

@rustic whale indentation is important when working with yaml

#

you should also have panel: true for your view if using layout-card

rustic whale Jan 24, 2020, 8:19 PM

panel: true atm just breaks everything.

mild veldt Jan 24, 2020, 8:20 PM

#

"breaks everything". do you understand what that does?

rustic whale Jan 24, 2020, 8:20 PM

#

As for breaks, with panel: false, I get a "No card type configured. break"

mild veldt Jan 24, 2020, 8:20 PM

#

https://www.home-assistant.io/lovelace/views/#panel-mode

rustic whale Jan 24, 2020, 8:20 PM

#

Oh, I meant - Quite literally. Panel: false = I see all my cards. Panel: true = I see the first card, covering the entire thing.

#

Ah. So I'm missing a step.

mild veldt Jan 24, 2020, 8:21 PM

#

2nd paragraph is important here https://github.com/thomasloven/lovelace-layout-card#layouts

rustic whale Jan 24, 2020, 8:21 PM

#

Aye, did read the entire thing, a couple of times.

#

Though - Quite honestly, think I'm giving up for now, and just hoping some better alternative gets implemented in the future - without the need for mods/plugins/etc. This doesn't even feel very complicated, just a bit.. messy. Also, it feels upside down. Title at the bottom, type at the bottom.

cards:
  - entities:
      - entity: light.stue
      - entity: light.color_light_1
      - entity: light.color_temperature_light_1
      - entity: light.color_light_1_2
    title: Living Room
    type: entities

Again though, thank you for your help ^^

mild veldt Jan 24, 2020, 8:22 PM

#

alphabetical

#

i'm sure something will eventually come to core, but it is probably not at the top of anyone's list to work on. making something highly customizable AND simple use is not an easy project

rustic whale Jan 24, 2020, 8:27 PM

#

A "Rows: X", with the current arrows for up-down, alone would go a very long way. 😛
Is all I wanted, really. Move something to a row, move it up and down, instead of this default weird form of "this might be the last card, but now it'll be moved to the first 'row'".

Alternatively is a Rows: X, Columns: X, and being able to click and drag (like a normal (Android) mobile UI).

I will probably attempt to mess about with it again at some point, atm it just frustrates me. :)

#

Also, alphabetical feels awkward. But, maybe that's just my limited coding knowledge from beforehand. My own logic goes: Title > Type > Information ^^

mild veldt Jan 24, 2020, 8:28 PM

#

the configuration is translated from yaml to json. the utility library used sorts alphabetically 🤷‍♂️ it wasn't a design decision, just the way the library works

rustic whale Jan 24, 2020, 8:29 PM

#

Ahh, that.. Kind of makes sense!

mild veldt Jan 24, 2020, 8:30 PM

#

and your next question will be "why translate it to json" 🙂

rustic whale Jan 24, 2020, 8:30 PM

#

Nah, my programming knowledge doesn't go that far. I got the part about translated though

mild veldt Jan 24, 2020, 8:31 PM

#

well I honestly don't know, anyways 🙂

#

something something, json is for system files; yaml for user files. blah blah blah

rustic whale Jan 24, 2020, 8:32 PM

#

Do you know what the idea behind the very forced gaps between start and command? Like
panel: true --- doesn't work
However
panel: true --- does work.

Like, one space too many or too few and error messages. That is truely frustrating - most likely cause I don't know the reason behind it :p

To format your text as code, enter three backticks on the first line, press Enter for a new line, paste your code, press Enter again for another new line, and lastly three more backticks. Here's an example:

dreamy tendon Jan 24, 2020, 9:01 PM

are you playing something on them and they show "off"?

tawdry mesa Jan 24, 2020, 9:02 PM

#

No when I play something they are shown as on. I just find the "off" kind of weird.

dreamy tendon Jan 24, 2020, 9:02 PM

#

uhm, if they are not playing then they are off

tawdry mesa Jan 24, 2020, 9:02 PM

#

Is that just a state that they're in? Even though they aren't actually off

dreamy tendon Jan 24, 2020, 9:02 PM

#

you can hide devices that are off though quite easily

#

yes, it's just the state. When a media_player isn't playing something, it's off

tawdry mesa Jan 24, 2020, 9:04 PM

#

Ok gotchya

dreamy tendon Jan 24, 2020, 9:04 PM

#

I like to have my mediaplayers so that on the front page it only shows devices that are not in "off" or "unavailable" state to avoid clutter

tawdry mesa Jan 24, 2020, 9:05 PM

#

That's a good idea. I have a Google Assistant tab currently, where they all show so I can send a TTS message quickly to somebody in that room

dreamy tendon Jan 24, 2020, 9:06 PM

Yeah I have a tab as well for all of them in case I need to access the tts or just check the state history or something

@mild veldt would you you happen to know a way to get rid of the padding/margin using the layout-card? thomasloven says you "can't" (with quotes) - which I'm guessing is something outside the layout card

#

maybe card-mod or modifying HASS itself

@polar kelp I had to replicate my layout so I could dissect it piece by piece in search of the culprit and it was layout-card, (BTW...card-modder works well with q-card). I did a quick fix and swapped out layout-card for vertical-stack-in-card so I wouldn't lose functionallity on my mobile set up. Took a little style tweaking, but it'll work. Hated to drop that card, but for now I will so I can use use q-card.
...I have a strong suspicion that was my issue with the new update for state-switch as well, but getting late here and I'll have to test that theory tomorrow...

polar kelp Jan 25, 2020, 9:42 AM

#

Weird. It works with layout-card in alls my test cases.

#

But that’s certainly pushing the q-card to its limits.

#

I’ll see if I can force a problem.

cold stirrup Jan 25, 2020, 10:05 AM

#

Does anyone have anything in their UI which shows open windows and doors? I've been playing with various options but can't find anything I like. Looking for ideas.. I was thinking a card which is labelled Windows/Doors Status or something, and then lists the doors & windows and changes them to open and closed.. then maybe changes the colour to red when they're open. Perhaps it could make my morning coffee too and clean up after the dog 😂 😄

How to display the attributes of a component? I have Battery data which is a attribute for device_tracker. How to display directly in the card instead of clicking the card?

make it into a template sensor

{{ state_attr("device_tracker.yourphone", "battery_level") }}

torpid echo Jan 25, 2020, 12:59 PM

ah okay. But instead of defining a new sensor, is there no way to do directly in lovelace? I mean I already have the data of attribute, why should I define a new sensor and do a restart of HA?

dreamy tendon Jan 25, 2020, 1:02 PM

#

No clue. I prefer to have stuff like that as sensors for easier use, but maybe it's possible to show a template value in lovelace card as well

@mild veldt in the dev tools when the sonos is not playing something it's state is paused otherwise its playing. should I not be using the same states being displayed?

I'm using the custom:multiple-entity-row card to display some sensors and 3 attributes next to each other but it looks like a mess, does anyone know a way to customize the colums in which to show it or another card that can do this?

Hi, i thought i read a about a card/component to change the "more info" dialog of an entity. Does someone know how its called?

@ancient harness history of attributes is not stored, only states. So you need a template sensor that extracts it to a state
