Used HA for quite a while and now i have quite the daft dilemma. I've been scouring the internet and can't for the life of me find something i think should be a one click thing. What am i missing.....

I have my custom dashboard and i heavily use entities lists. But i noticed most have really nice button cards with more options in them when i click on the entities themselves. How can i add those cards directly? I can't find how....

Dashboard sample attached

If i click on Air purifier i get a bigger card with all the settings i'd like to add that directly as is.

That 'big card' is the more-info dialog, and it doesn't exist as a card stock HA.

#

There are maybe some custom cards that try to replicate this, like maybe 'more-info card' (guessing name vaguely from memory), I can't vouch for it though or how well it works.

Thank you!

I thought it would be as easy as drag and drop it into the dashboard, why would it not be? Since the whole card is already there.

Well it's not a card, it's a dialog.

#

Just never been built that way 🤷

Yeah, thank you again for the help. At least i know it wasn't me missing something.

I managed to remove extra unwanted content using card-mod from HACS and the following code:

card_mod:
style:
ha-card $: |
/* Hide the default card header /
.card-header {
display: none !important;
}
ha-card: |
/ Hide everything under state-card-content /
state-card-content {
display: none !important;
}
/ Optional padding inside the card (e.g., top spacing) */
.card-content {
padding-top: 12px !important;
}

#

they now look nice like this
