2021.12: New configuration menu, the button entity, and gorgeous area cards!

Bram just said ( in my FE issue) it will be fixed next week!

This is really a pitty, because there are such lot of bugs now for month in Safari. And most of the related github entries (and/or most of all open frontend issues) do not have a single reaction. Forntend is currently not really a topic, someone cares to solve the bugs after introducing them. And we are not talking about 1px here and there

  • History overview charts not working
  • energy dashboard not working (if you press any button)
  • input selects not working with themes anymore
  • the both topics Marius has mentioned
  • etc,

Of course, all this is relying on volunteers who are on top able to code, but if so many things are not working anymore in Safari/webkit, HA is not a real cross platform UI automation system anymore. Safari/webkit is buggy, but not that unusual, as every iPad, iPhone, … is relying on it. Esp. if these users don’t have a choice to use someting else than Safari/webkit.

Really don’t know, how to get the core devs again into it or to priritze bugfixing over changing the UI, esp. if the topic of the year is streamlining. A (again) working UI is for me the most important topic in streamlining. But most probably the Safari users can only live with it.

I have none of those issues on iOS accept the one Marius listed. Are you sure they are actual bugs and not user errors?

Just went through every one you listed, all working fine.

Yes, I am. But discussing them would be OT for this topic.

Please link the issues, thanks

HEre for the three examples above:

(I saw at least two issues on github, but currently not able to find them)

The theme one isn’t a bug, it’s a feature request to split and separate the css attributes for each input.

As for the history, I do not see this on any of my apple products accept for the ones with the older os (iPad 2). Which is not supported.

I can’t speak for the energy dashboard, don’t use it.

When I get a chance, I’ll show you what I use for the themes on the input backgrounds

Perhaps it is not a bug, but due to changes in webkit, you cannot use dark custom themes anymore without frontend corrections/adoptions. If you know a way to use a dark custom theme with input fields, I’m interested in the solution as well.

Would appreciate it.

For the second: The problem is there. Newest devices, newest iOS. Every device I have tested. Even if you don’t have the problem, it is there. For ages.

But for the history you said, “Just went through every one you listed, all working fine” and now, that you are not using it and cannot test. Somehow the opposite to each other.

For all of them: If you personally don’t have them, fine, but they are there. That is all I have posted above. I talked to a colleague the morning and he knew two of them and was able to directly reproduce the third. I advertised HA in the past to him but in the meantime he asked several times, why I did this, if this seems to be an android only platform with such big unfixed issues.

I’m using something on my own system, I just want to verify it will work for input datetimes or input numbers as I don’t use either in my front ends

To be fair, you said input select background so that’s what I checked and it works for me with a light/dark theme

Lastly for the energy, I’m still waiting on my sensors to show up. Been 3 months. When they do, I’ll be able to verify the energy button thing. I’ve had the page prepped but it’s empty on my installation

To make it more crisp. Set only a theme with

    ha-card-background: '#2E2E2E'

and nothing more. Only the above. And give me a hint, how to set the white on these input buttons to another color, which works for Safari.

Because outside of Safari/Webkit the white is not there

is that an input datetime?

Yes. It is.

with that same theme, what does a input_select look like and an input_text?

There is no white there (only in the dropdown-box, but there the same in chrome, … The differnce is only for date time.

yep, I can’t do any testing where I am. It’ll have to wait, need access to a config

I can confirm the odd energy panel details issue. inputs I can still see though,


as my history/logbook panels, they show fine. I posted a suggestion in History page does not load - #5 by Mariusthvdb to test a bit, reducing the recorded entities

And yes, out of the box, dark_mode is terrible when you have carefully set themes… so be sure not to use it :wink:

offten a right click in inspector will reveal the theme color code though, so you can adapt in your theme. ( had that eg with the quickbar, and a simple adjustment in my themes fixed that)

Not urgent. I lived now with an ugly work-around for months, so I can wait.
