Hi everyone. Do you all know of any GUI based alternatives to Lovelace for creating UIs and Dashboards?
I'm aware that Node Red has a dashboard designer that's a bit easier to customize. Do you know of any other add-ons or possible integrations for UI design?

Is it possible to show a card with status washing machine and on the same line the last state change time between ().
Like: Washing machine: done (24 minutes ago)
I have both working but only above each other
karmic tiger
It depends on the card. That's the kind of thing custom cards are good at - check out button card.
severe fox
Button card? Oke I will check this out
tacit cave
@severe fox getting last_updated as a relative time will be difficult with any custom card
especially if you want it to update properly.
button card makes it pretty easy, but you won't get it in parenthesis. If you want it in parenthesis, you'll have to do the time conversion yourself and link the card to an entity that updates periodically.
severe fox
a starting time is also oke. So if it would be: Washing machine: done (6:20PM)

@severe fox You're still going to have to manipulate a datetime object
either in a template sensor or on the frontend card using js

Hey, how can I enable swipe through dashboards on Lovelace. Instead of clicking the tab just swipe left and right. The next thing I want to do is create an icon on Lovelace and when it's tapped it gives you a list of devices.
EG tap on the light bulb and all light switches show in a list

For the second, that sounds like an input_select, not sure if there's custom cards for it

I have tried both png and jpg,.. neither seem to work ( is there a spec for this image,.. x,y pixels etc ),.. and have located them from my config folder down,.. taking the config folder as the root,.. I have looked for pointers but cannot seem to find the details I need,... many tx..

how would i change a 'RUN' text button into a material design 'switch?' ex.: https://i.imgur.com/YNpTcqP.png
elder pendant
You wouldn't, because it's not a switch
inland wadi
right. specifically, it is a service call that performs the same function as a switch. it just adds the transition property to the call. ofc i understand why type: call-service defaults to 'RUN'. I just want to know how to change the 'RUN' text to the preferred material design selection control. sort of like how you can change icons to whatever you want.
elder pendant
Scripts don't have states, so I don't understand how they could be any type of switch. It would immediately toggle after you click it
karmic tiger
The closest you'll get is an input_boolean you can toggle, which when turned on triggers a script.
And then something else to turn the boolean back off.
split granite
You could add a delay to force a toggle
inland wadi
villhelm -- right, it's less than ideal and probably better approached with a standalone button card that just has an icon.
mono -- thank you for the suggestion
tinkerer -- 😆

@inland wadi https://www.home-assistant.io/lovelace/entities/#action_name docs are your friend
shut notch
In the ui-lovelace.yaml, is it possible to do imports to bring in other yaml files? example: use a horizontal stack card and then each column would import a yaml for managing each column separate?
inland wadi
@mild veldt ayy, i have a new friend. this is useful in terms of knowing that I can change the text from 'RUN' to other text. thank you. next step is knowing how to take it from text to one of these: https://i.imgur.com/3S8gr3O.png
elder pendant
You've been given several solutions to that end
inland wadi
(i mean a step for me to work on, not implying that i want more of my homework done for me) -- thanks again.
elder pendant
- delay: 00:00 at the end of the script is all that's necessary
split granite
(of course, it'll turn off instantly, but 🤷)
elder pendant
Seems like that's the desired outcome 🤷
inland wadi
yes, and there's the possibility of the command failing and i'm stuck with an 'on' button when it ain't on, but that's my problem
mild veldt
@inland wadi a template switch is the best solution for that IMO as it is the most explicit

with the custom button card, how can I display the value of a sensor in place of the icon
golden eagle
Howdy! I want to add a card to my Lovelace that allows a user to send a TTS announcement to a selected media player (like you can if you view more info about a Google Home). My thought is an automagically populated input_select (either with entity_id or friendly_name) where the user can select a media_player entity to send the announcement to. I'm able to populate the list using Node Red, but using entity_ids looks messy in the UI and using friendly_names presents its own problems on the backend. Am I over-thinking this? Is there a simpler way for me to accomplish it?
inland wadi
@mild veldt template sensors are great. i set up a template sensor w/ icon states that track the on/off state of my lights. combine that plus a service call for the tap_action on a button card, and i get more of the functionality that i was looking for.
round lily

Hi everyone, I tried to install the beta 2 of the spotify-card via HACS, everything seems to be fine, I also see an entry in the Lovelace ressources that seems to have been added by HACS.. But I am unable to add the card... As far as I understand it should by able to add it via the graphical lovelace interface?
mild veldt
@coarse elk select Manual Card and enter the configuration
coarse elk
i tried that and it asks for the client id, which as far as i understand it, is not needed anymore? If I add it, I have to authenticate, which also should be gone...
spotfiy integration and spotcast are installed
so i guess i am missing something obvious?
coarse elk
Ah, ok. Then I run in the problem why I tried the beta in the first place... I am not able to autheticate the card with the redirect error. Is this possible with the local ip? (it worked with the spotify integration)
I think my problem is that i do not know how adding the correct url " for the tab the card has"
how do I find the "tab the card has"?

ah, yes. this makes sense

Hello
in the picture-elements of my floormap
I have a type: image
with a camera_image from my surveillance camera
it works properly, I can display camera on my floormap
but when it refresh the image
for some seconds I see no image on the map
and I just see the border that becomes a straight line
would it be possible to avoid this?
just a realtime swap between old and new image?
karmic tiger
Please write in full sentences. There's no reason that had to be 10 lines.
If the problem is that there's a short period with no picture (so the card has no height), either use the CSS properties to control the height or use multiple layered images.
karmic tiger
No. The documentation can. https://www.home-assistant.io/lovelace/picture-elements/
dapper grotto
In the doc... there is no reference about multiple layered images
karmic tiger
for some seconds I see no image on the map
and I just see the border that becomes a straight line
If you can't guarantee that there's always an image, the next best thing is a placeholder image to maintain the size/shape.
Since you haven't shared your config, there's going to be a certain amount of guesswork in any answers you receive.
dapper grotto
I don't want a placeholder or a fake image
I want the last available one
to persist
split granite
Then.... guess it's time to create a custom card 😉
dapper grotto

How do I specify a not state for state-switch?
dapper grotto
Do I really need to go to a custom card?
finite pond
For example I want to specify a card if an entity is not equal to a state
dapper grotto
There is no native method to stick to the last available image?
Maybe instead of image type I can use something different?
karmic tiger
How do I specify a not state for
state-switch?
It doesn't look like you can. Instead, you'll have to have the same config for each state that isn't the one you don't want.
To make this less repetitive in code, you could look into YAML anchors.
finite pond
And are the states case sensitive?
karmic tiger
The states are whatever you see in 
> States
split granite
Home Assistant as a whole is case sensitive 😉
(this is why it's called out in the docs)
finite pond
Gotcha. Is it possible to set the name of the mini-graph-card to the state of an entity?
karmic tiger
Maybe. What do the docs for that card say?
There's some tips here on finding out: https://discordapp.com/channels/330944238910963714/331130181102206976/471041408371785738
finite pond
It doesn't specifically say that but I was hoping something like this could maybe work:
name: {% states('sensor.data_sensor') %}
karmic tiger
If it doesn't say it supports templating, it doesn't support templating.
As a general rule, cards don't.
mild veldt
@finite pond you can use config-template-card to wrap the card
finite pond
That worked nicely. How do I add static text to the name?
I’ve tried this:
name: "${ 'Server' && states['sensor.throttled_state'].state }"

You use valid JavaScript...
&& is boolean and, not concatenation.

Question: I have a button that is to toggle a group which contains 2 switches (of which I've defined their turn_on and turn_off services and data). The button functions correctly when I press it (my two thermostats adjust their target temperatures as I've defined), but when I press it again to turn off the group nothing happens (the thermostats are supposed to change back to a different value). Any ideas?

all of your data sections are indented too much, by the way
and are you sure the thermostats aren't changing value? The switch isn't going to switch off
white drift
what do you guys think is the best way to present a momentary switch? Pretty much like a button press. The toggle for switches simply really fit the use case in my opinion
elder pendant
A button?
clear dome
Sorry had to step away. Thanks I'm terrible with the indenting. The thermostats change when I click the button the first time but when I try to turn them back to regular values by turning the button off it doesn't change their values
I will give it another try, got hung up with something
I thought that because I defined the switch states ("turn_on" and "turn_off") that the toggle button would execute the "turn_off" service of each thermostat when the button is switched off (it seems like "turn_on" worked fine).

So nothing in the logs?

Looks like its supposed to be stored in /home/homeassistant/.homeassistant?
dark dirge
yes, that's effectively what you called "configuration" above

Is there a way to force a Vera cover (garage door opener) that is seen by HA as a switch to be seen as a cover?

Hey there, I just did an install and am not able to set my home location. It only allows me to click around on a map.
latent moss
@outer nest that is how you set your home location through the GUI, drag the map marker to where your home location is
outer nest
Yikes, most of the roads aren't even marked. I am basically stumbling through the state of TX right now trying to find it.
latent moss
it should get you pretty close by default, unless you moved it
outer nest
Very well could have clicked by accident somewhere
I guess there's no way to re-center it?
latent moss
not that i'm aware
you can set the exact coordinates using YAML, but then you won't be able to change the other settings on that page via the GUI.
Example code here for that, https://www.home-assistant.io/docs/configuration/basic/
Also, i think you can drag it via Configuration -> Zones. That would probably be easier as it's uses the full width of your browser rather than a mini map embed.
outer nest
I eventually made my way to my house. I am perplexed as to why the GUI wouldn't have lat long coords. It's very easy to find them for your address.
dark dirge
that's why I use YAML for that 🙂

When I look at the log for Home Assistant - the web interface is extremely frustrating when trying to copy text. If I click on a log entry, I get a pop-up with details. When I try to copy the text, I have to be extremely diligent not to go below a line with my mouse, or to extend past a line - or the selection goes away. I'm using FireFox, and this doesn't happen on Chrome. Is this a common issue?

It's in your config folder @cyan ocean - but depending on how you installed HA it's also accessible in other ways

I like that typo, @thick surge - loveface.

It's one line so I'll assume I can share it here

Hi all :)
I've broken up my lovelace into multiple dashboards, but i don't really understand what's going on with the resources.
I can define them in either configuration.yaml or ui-lovelace..yaml, and as i understand by documentation that they are shared between all dashboards if i define them in configuration.yaml.
However i get the same result if i define them in ui-lovelace.yaml, and if i try another dashboard's ui-xx.yaml they don't load at all
Is this expected the behavior?
I also seem unable to mix between the configuration.yaml and ui-xx.yaml, if i put anything resource at all in configuration resources defined in ui-xx seems to be ignored
What i wanted to achieve was to define only the resources that are shared between all dashboards in configuration, then put the rest in the corresponding file
karmic tiger
configuration.yaml defines integrations, not UI components.
If you're having a problem, share your config and any error messages.
kind shellBOT
wooden locust
as i understand the documentation, i can declare resources in both ways, and it seems to work just fine. But i'm unable to have distinct resources for a certain dashboard or mix the two ways
karmic tiger
When you say resources, do you mean things like custom cards?
wooden locust
yes ->>
resources:
- url: /hacsfiles/custom-header/custom-header.js
type: module
Ah. In that case, I think it's preferred to do that via the UI now.
Configuration > Lovelace dashboards > Resources > plus sign
wooden locust
if i define them in configuration.yaml they show up there.
Can't see how that solves my issue thou
What i'm after is a package-like configuration, instead of spagetti
some resources should be global and are indeed shared between all dashboards, while some are not and shouldn't be
karmic tiger
Ah, then I'm not sure. I still haven't gotten my head around packages 😄
wooden locust
Perhaps it's impossible and all resources are global by design then. Unfortunately. I just thought I've missed something 🙂 if that's the case it's a pity but not much to do about i suppose
Many other configuration values are merged between files and not ignored so i was kind of hoping there was a trick to it
winter hollow
Resources are global by design
wooden locust
thanks for clarification @winter hollow

Hey there. I have some issues with certain lovelace features that are not working from firefox desktop and chrome on android.. anyone else seen this? Configuration page = Error while loading page config.
alarm panel card not showing, and breaks every card after alarm panel card..
same with chrome desktop now after clearing cache and CTRL+F5..
karmic tiger
What are 'certain lovelace features'? It sounds like maybe some custom resources aren't in the right place.
honest yoke
the alarm panel is standard card.. and config page should be generic i guess.
karmic tiger
Then maybe a formatting error? Feel free to share your config here
kind shellBOT
honest yoke
In developer console shows ERR_CONTENT_DECODING_FAILED 200
and:
app.04756a98.js:43757 Error loading page config ChunkLoadError: Loading chunk 167 failed
It worked well on previous hass release, after update (no change in configs) it stopped working.
Jumped from latest 111 to 112.4
karmic tiger
167 chunks? 😮
honest yoke
no.. number 167
karmic tiger
I don't even want to guess what's happening there. I'll leave this to the experts.
muted inlet
ChunkLoadError sounds like a Minecraft issue
karmic tiger
Does it always fail at chunk 167?
I wonder if it's something in that chunk that can't be merged.
honest yoke
Chunk number is different.. for the page with the alarm panel it is no 215, on the config page it's 167.
karmic tiger
But for each page, it's always 215 or 167?
My point is that if it's not random, it's probably not just connectivity issues. More likely to be something at that position in the config.
honest yoke
/config page is not configurable.. so i don't see the pattern..

anyone know how to pass options to the layout-card when embedding it in an auto-entities like the example at the bottom of this section? https://github.com/thomasloven/lovelace-layout-card#a-few-tips
winter wasp
i'm trying to set the layout option for the layout-card arrangement of the generated cards
or--maybe i'm thinking about this backwards...
karmic tiger
You just make a valid layout-card and nest it within another card that accepts children.
winter wasp
the "parent" card is auto-entities, which uses type: layout-card as its card: option
oh wait, the auto-entities card: section can accept more options than just type: 🤦
polar kelp
Anything your heart desires.
As long as that's something the card in question accepts natively.

bah, i was rearranging media-control cards to see if i could fix whatever is causing the progress bar to fail to load and it didn't seem to work

karmic tiger
You can post images, just use a sharing site
kind shellBOT
karmic tiger
Examples for layout-card are all in the readme on the repo (it's a custom card). I don't know of a guide for combining cards, so it's mostly going to be trial and error or looking at someone else's UI and seeing how the YAML looks to generate it.
Several well-respected users have shared their configs if you want to have a look: https://www.home-assistant.io/cookbook/#example-configurationyaml
kindred hull
I've not had much joy with YAML as yet. Pretty much either cut and paste or copying examples. Thanks - I will have a look. The harder the fall the better the lesson!
karmic tiger
If you're new to YAML, it can feel a bit weird. I hated it at first... then it grew on me.

It
's a choice of challenges. I was getting a grasp of OpenHAB and hated the proprietary language. YAML seems to have a nice std but finding the source of the context is a challenge

I've been trying to get it fixed for 2 months or more and I've tried everything.
I have a valid SSL certificate that checks out from ssl checker
So I also have a valid port forward to Hassio on 8123
But when I try to login from HA client app, the login screen just hangs at 'initialising'. Can never login.

Not sure what you mean by that? Just the portforward

kind of a redirect for your external DNS to you HA instance. I see it as if you work at google and you go to google.com and it routes back to you
what kind of router do you have?
cyan prism
no, most routers dont know how to hand a re-direct to themselves
checking your router, 2 secs
might be nap loopback for you?
ancient sundial
Can you explain?
cyan prism
You send a dns request from your router that turns out to be itself...a lot of l3 devices can't handle that. Any chance you are German?
ancient sundial
No not German. The router is set to get DNS from the ISP.
cyan prism
k, sry most of the documentation is German. Taking a little bit to figure out
what happens if you ping your duckdns address?
ancient sundial
Yes, it pings from my internal network fine.

and if you telnet to that address with 8123 as the port?

it doesn't work but it also doesn't work if I telnet to the internal ip:port
Not sure telnet is activated?\

Hi fellow automators 👋 as usual its de simple things in life one needs help with 😸 is there any way to auto cycle trough tabs of a Lovelace dashboard (used to have a tab-switcher on chromium before)? together with "lovelace-swipe-navigation" this is would be the way better option than browser tabs? Am i missing the obvious? Hints much appreciated 🙇♂️

So I'm using a conditional card to toggle either my downstairs or upstairs floorplan and it works great, but when I swap floorplan cards the 2nd floor card is offset by a few pixels vertically. It's because I'm vertically stacking and although only one card is present at a time (out of the two) there is still some data being hidden and thus the 2nd floor is always slightly offset as a result. If I stack horizontally it's horizontally offset when swapping cards. I want to get rid of the small offset because my top floorplan is designed to look like it overlays on top of the bottom floorplan, and so if it moves when you click to view the top, it destroys the illusion of the top floor appearing on top of it.
Any ideas? https://hatebin.com/jibcssfdlk

@polar kelp how do I apply dashed style and a specific color to a badge with card-mod?

Unless a card specifically says it can read attributes, you'll probably have to make a template sensor and use that instead.

@nova bloom did you use the right ip for your HA server
karmic tiger
If you set up your SSL using an #add-ons-archived, take it over there.
If you didn't and you're having trouble simply getting back in, take it to an install channel of your choice.

yea its the right IP

It's not about Lovelace.

I beleive I did setup SSL using the method described in a video that I cannot find

You get better help when you ask in the right place and it also means people can search for previous answers in the right place.

not sure #integrations-archived could have helped me with that

Customising entities is an integration thing. That's definitely where you get help with integrations.

I find it very confusing.. every time I go to any channel I get bounced between 4 channels and back again 😛

it's like musical chairs.. I wish there . was a flowchart
karmic tiger
You just need to post a clearly written question with all the relevant details in the right channel. Simple.
And if part of your problem means moving to another channel? Well, that's normal.
Like if you're building a custom card, you'd get help with the card itself here... but any templates you need as part of that card, well you ask in #templates-archived.
viral sorrel
well that makes sense.. but when you're having a problem and you don't know what is wrong except for a symptom it's easy to get forwarded to another channel a few times.. sometimes you end up back where you started.. guess there's no way around it
karmic tiger
That's completely normal. If a problem is made up of different parts, those parts might need to be solved in different channels. It's not worth getting mad about.
viral sorrel
who's mad?
this is about as calm as I've been in 3 months :/

Hey folks! For my secondary HA setup I have for a long time had the "old" yaml mode Lovelace view. Now I have created a new dashboard (UI Controlled) but I am unable to delete the old one. I can set the new to default for my device, but I want to migrate to the new dashboard for all devices and users.... How can I achieve that?
wheat current
@half marsh & @swift onyx It looks like both of you have the same issue.
The .js file you downloaded needs to be placed in /config/www/cardname.js
If you do not have the www folder you need to create it, if you created it now you need to restart Home Assistant for it to work.
When it is in the correct folder you add it to lovelace with /local/cardname.js
For more information look here https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/http/#hosting-files
half marsh
@wheat current thanks for your reply! I will try it now 😃 👍
half marsh
At first I found it strange the "www" folder was not created. But after reading some I get that it is tricky since it isn't a protected directory. Useful information. Thanks! 😇
Now I made the folder, added the file and rebooted. After that I changed the dashboard resource for the card to the right directory and tried it out. Sadly with no success, card still not found 😦
Will have to look around a little or I missed something.
wheat current
Verry few custom cards register them self to the card-picker so you have to use a manual-card with the instructions provided in the repo where you found the file
half marsh
Yeah, I taught so. So I made a manual one. Will try it again. Maybe the old one does not pick it?
Sadly not: http://prntscr.com/tmp914
wheat current
And how did you add the resource?
half marsh
Configuration/Lovelace Dashboards and then the Resource tab
wheat current
right, but how?
half marsh
Added this URL: /config/www/light-entity-card.js
wheat current
yeah...
When it is in the correct folder you add it to lovelace with /local/cardname.js
wheat current
Change /config/www to /local
half marsh
Seems to work!
Thanks a lot @wheat current
Is there a reason why it is local btw?
wheat current
There probably is 🤷♂️ 😄

Ok, fine for now. Just need to make note of it and not forget that it isn't /config/ 😂

You will remember it when you go to that screen the next time and you see this one.

okay, tried to google it. But didnt show any useful, just some post from last year
karmic tiger
To keep it all the same replace paper-card-background-color with ha-card-background
And this is the bit in the release notes for 0.113:
The theme variable paper-card-background-color is removed. You can use ha-card-background or card-background-color as a replacement.
In general, all variables that start with paper will be removed at some point.
Not bad for my old man memory.

Hello I have a question in tileboard: https://github.com/resoai/TileBoard
regarding changing the background photo of the tiles.
I’m trying to change the tile background to a custom picture of my choice.
In the documentation of tileboard this code should be added in the tile object:
bg: ‘@attributes.entity_picture’
Where do I actually add the pic itself for instance “/images/example.jpg” aka how/where do I determine the entity_picture??
Is this the right place to ask my question I already asked in the forum of tileboard itself?

That's because you need to match what script.turn_on expects as data (it is entity_id and not scene_name)
It is not different as calling a service in DevTools page of your frontend. If your are not sure about parameters, just go to devTools --> Services and try to call your service manually from UI.

After upgrading to 0.113 paper-dialog-background-color for the more info pop-up background colour no longer seems to work. Anyone know what it has been replaced with?
It's not dialog-background-color or ha-dialog-background
karmic tiger
Documented in the release notes, btw.
errant plover
Nope. That is not for the pop-up card.
winter hollow
mdc-surface-colormdc-theme-surface
errant plover
It did try to adapt the recommendations for paper-card-background-color as per the two above, but they did not work.
winter hollow
but that is not just for the dialog
errant plover
Oh. I'll give it a go and see what it breaks. Thanks.
winter hollow
mdc-theme-surface btw
errant plover
Close. The pop-up header bar colour is still not right, do you know that one as well bram?
winter hollow
Seems to mdc-theme-primary
but that is overruled
wait
that is using card-background-color
will change it to mdc-theme-surface for next release
errant plover
Thanks bram. You're right, mdc-theme-primary has no effect. Unfortunately my integrations / entities pages are now all unreadable again too. Could I suggest that they use the Lovelace card background/text colours to be consistent?
errant plover
configuration / entities and configuration / integrations seem to use different background and text theming options to the main Lovelace cards.
winter hollow
you mean the data table?
errant plover
yeah and the integration cards.
errant plover
winter hollow
it is the same?
the integration cards are the same as lovelace
just the data tables that are different
errant plover
Yeah it's the data tables. The integration cards are ok (I realised I had a totally transparent card bg).
winter hollow
add card-background-color: "rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.0)"
and then you can remove ha-card-background
use ha-card-background only if you want the cards to have different styling
card-background-color is the base color for all surfaces, so also the dialogs and menu's
errant plover
That's done the trick. From the release notes I thought card-background-color and ha-card-background were one and the same.
Thank you.
winter hollow
no, but they can both be used to style the cards
errant plover
That's got my cards and custom-button-cards under control again: https://i.imgur.com/OEfApK5.jpg made a bit of a dogs breakfast of the integrations page though: https://i.imgur.com/MKpeyQy.png not sure there is anything I can do about it because I need the transparent card bg.
winter hollow
you use card mod for you lovelace cards?
errant plover
Yeah.
errant plover
The card bg changes with day/night theme. https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/Jy75vQx5rb/
winter hollow
so you have a different theme for day and night?
winter hollow
ha-card-background: url("/local/background/card_bg_day.png");
ha-card-background: url("/local/background/card_bg_night.png");
the first in your day theme, the second in the night theme
errant plover
Correct. Only the night theme was giving me trouble. I have had to revert to using ha-card-background fro the day theme or the more info pop-ups become transparent.
winter hollow
no need for card mod and templates
errant plover
Oh. Nice, I'll give that a go.
Actually, no. That would also theme all the custom-button-cards that I want to be transparent.
The remote control buttons here: https://i.imgur.com/OEfApK5.jpg
I might be able to override that with the button templates. Not sure. Will look into it.
Just realised I also have this to correct in all my button templates: '--paper-card-background-color': 'rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)' though by the looks of it I can leave it out.
Yes! now I can increase the alpha transparency of the theme card bg and fix the integrations page. That was the issue. I forgot the styling in the button templates.
will change it to
mdc-theme-surfacefor next release
@winter hollow No need to do this now.

Why from external website ESP-Home loaded from Home Assistant interface not work normally? For example if I press "validate" the window open still empty black.

If I access from local IP the console all work perfectly
I need to do something?

Hello everyone. I have a question. Does anyone know if you can include standard cards (such as an entities card) as elements in a picture-elements Lovelace card? I have tried just adding it with - type: entities, but get a red box with "Unknown type encountered: entities". My Google-fu has completely failed me.

@wide reef Thanks ! I added it, and i added the ressource on lovelace, but nothing happened, could i check the ressource is loaded ?

Someone would know / could help me why nothing happened when i add the ressource https://github.com/gabe565/popup-backdrop-filter ?

@errant grail did it get added into lovelace resources? Configuration -> Lovelace Dashboards -> Resources You might have to enable advanced mode, click on your name (bottom left) then toggle advanced mode

There is another theme which use the same tips to blur popups background
The js file is around the same
but i have the same problem : nothing occur
errant grail
Then, since i updated HA (0.113)
The background popup changed
It seems that paper-dialog-background-color is not interpreted anymore
karmic tiger
Yes. That's in the release notes
errant grail
Thanks
But i don't find the equivalent property
ha-card-background concerns the cards
But i would change popups background only
(to make it transparent a little bit)
karmic tiger
The theme variable paper-card-background-color is removed. You can use ha-card-background or card-background-color as a replacement.
If they don't work, I don't know which ones to use.
errant grail
Yes but theses properties changes the background cards
wheat current
errant grail
Thanks a lot @wheat current
It's exactly this one
If i success to use this script to the blur transparancy, it will be perfect
But it seems not interpreted by the browser
Maybe do you have an idea, a CSS property would also be deprecated ?
karmic tiger
That would be handled by your browser, not by HA. And it's not often CSS is deprecated.
errant grail
Yes, but I don't know why the blue doesn't appears
It's the same on Firefox and chrome
karmic tiger
What rule isn't working?
errant grail
If I look on the css on the HA webpage, I see some references to "irn-overlay" so the ressource seems to be loaded
I should get something like https://github.com/gabe565/popup-backdrop-filter/blob/master/screenshot.png?raw=true
karmic tiger
Maybe something else changed. I'm not great with themes, so I'll shut up 😄
errant grail
To a new dialog ?
winter hollow
whats funny about that?
winter hollow
it's an element
iron-overlay was part of paper-dialog https://www.webcomponents.org/element/@polymer/paper-dialog
we are now using mwc-dialog https://www.npmjs.com/package/@material/mwc-dialog
errant grail
Thanks, so if I understand, I replace the element iron-overlay which is deprecated by mwc-dialog on the script above, and it should be ok ?
winter hollow
nope, not that easy
halcyon laurel
Hi folks - I'm working on a view wherein I'd like a light icon that is lit if any light is on. Same with fans. I know there used to be a group.all, and I know I can call a service to turn all lights on or off, and I know I could manually create a group, but I'd like if possible to just catch every light, so I don't have to manually update that group every time I change, add, or remove a light.
Is it even possible anymore?
errant grail
@winter hollow if it's possible can I try to debug the script on the console browser ?
winter hollow
if you know javascript, custom elements and shadow root and are a programmer, otherwise I don't give you much chance
errant grail
I know JavaScript, server side otherwise (I'm developer) but i have no idea to debug that, I'm lost when I have to develop a pretty thing on an UI
winter hollow
You can always try
You want to add this:
.mdc-dialog .mdc-dialog__scrim {
backdrop-filter: blur(5px);
}
inside of ha-dialog
winter hollow
You are using firefox... did this work before in firefox?
errant grail
no, at all
winter hollow
I can't help you further, I suggest Google
you also enabled gfx.webrender.all and restarted firefox right?
winter hollow
works here in firefox
errant grail
YES it is perfect !
Thanks a lot 😉
It will remain to integrate the rule in the script
Good night 😉
I try with this script, but it does'nt work

is there a list of theme variables somewhere? With the release notes for 113 noting that variables that use 'paper' are going away, I have some work to do.
gusty pivot
I saw a tip on the forums about using chrome/FF's dev mode to find all the elements
not ideal though
I feel like my dash board needs some kind of .. header card.. or clock card or something..
I don't know,maybe I'm just trying too hard to set it up like a phone homescreen
gloomy tiger
How would I go about adding just the map and bottom bar from https://spotthestation.nasa.gov/tracking_map.cfm to Home Assistant?
fervent hornet
Configuration -> General
@gusty pivot Config > General is where I am seeing I can change the name of my "Home" and the map where I can move the pin but nothing like a lat / long or zip code etc.. I can adjust elevation thats about it and I have nothing in my config.yaml with location. Its basic from the intital install I did before moving. I have added lots of integrations because if not I would just start over.

oh sorry, I just assumed setting the pin on the map translated to a lat/long

oh sorry, I just assumed setting the pin on the map translated to a lat/long
@gusty pivot It does I just assumed a better way then a "move the map pin" I assumed since it was removed from the configuration.yaml that it should stay out? I have much catching up to do on the platform. If we can edit elevation then why not lat / long as well

Got around to setting up a picture-elements card to do a floorplan, and I'd like to have my tap_action: open a custom lovelace card, similar to how more-info opens that the info pane. Is that possible?
Right now I'm just using navigate to go to a different page where those cards are, but it'd be a smoother UX to have the relevant card pop up for use, and then have it be closeable.

karmic tiger
If you're asking how to work with the code, ask in one of the dev channels.
You're past basic 'how do I add X on a card?' questions and well into the behind the scenes at this point.
errant grail
👍🏽
karmic tiger
It will always try to fill the column it's in.
If you want it to be narrower, you need narrower columns.
You should check out horizontal stack cards if you want multiple smaller buttons in a row.
karmic tiger
Yes... horizontal stacks.

karmic tiger
Scenes are an #automations-archived thing.
errant plover
Thanks but that didn't work either Bram.
winter hollow
pretty sure it works
so you are probably doing something else wrong
maybe you still override it with card mod
errant plover
I created a new entities card with no card-mod styling. I replaced www.home-assistant.io with my duckdns domain. I also corrected the file names, day and night are capitalised. No luck.
ha-card-background: 'url("https://mydomain.duckdns.org/background/card_bg_Night.png") center center/cover no-repeat'
winter hollow
thats not the same as what I sent
first of all the url is wrong
if the background folder is in the www folder it should be /local/background/card_bg_Night.png
errant plover
Yeah it is. This works for the view bg: background-image: 'center / cover no-repeat url("/local/background/night.jpg") fixed'

errant plover
doh. missing leading "/" was the issue.
This has done some interesting things to my configuration / integrations page 🙂 Not immediately dislikeable. Thanks for your help Bram.
Though now that I'm not using card-background-color: the issue with mdc-theme-surface: not extending to the pop-up header is an issue again. Also the "EDIT" text label on the bottom of cards in the edit mode is not the primary text colour, making it invisible.

@rustic lynx Because you "missed comma between flow collection entries at line 4, column 1: entity: switch.rumpus_av ^"?
winter hollow
@errant plover you can keep card-background-color in your config
and the edit button is in the primary color?
errant plover
Ah that's what the problem is. The top of my card image is the primary colour.
Would it not make more sense to make the text the primary text color?
winter hollow
what text?
wheat current
Also the "EDIT" text label on the bottom of cards in the edit mode is not the primary text colour, making it invisible
winter hollow
It is a button, all our buttons are primary color
You should not make the primary color similar to the background or card color
errant plover
Hmm ok. I may have to re-think my card bg image colours then: https://i.imgur.com/uYUQkzz.png
winter hollow
😅
errant plover
It was so pretty 😦 https://i.imgur.com/AWVQdlX.png Ah well live and learn.
winter hollow
it is just the edit button 😉 how often do you use it 😛
errant plover
That is true... and I know where to press. Also thanks for the tip about using both card colour options. That fixed the pop-up header.
Gah. had the screen shot open and thought home assistant had crashed when it wasent responding to clicks! 🤣
wheat current
Just tell youself that the hidden button is a "security" "feature" 😉
errant plover
Great minds think alike (fools rarely differ).
Only 180 more card-mod lines to replace... cant work out how to replace an indented found selection with an empty line in VSCode. Well delete the whole line not leave an empty one.

Find:
somekey:
nested_key: bla
Replace:
somekey:
Maybe... the indentation of somekey (and thus also the key below it) varies though. Still there's only a few variations. Thanks!

That is correct.

and how i can set diferent images for diferent rooms ?
errant plover
Ok. Each one of those menu items along the top bar is called a 'view'. I'm not sure how you would make them different.
If you edit a view you will see there is a theme option. You would probably have to create a theme for each view.
