This is a combination of grid cards and custom button cards with templates. I mainly use it on mobile devices.

Hi Sebastian, this is REALLY a nice, interesting and useful way to shape a section!

Since I try to make my dashboards minimalistic by automating as much as possible and the things I want/need to see also with buttons that open pop-ups so my dashboard is not cluttered with a lot of stuff, your solution is a way that appeals to me a lot.

I think that putting your example + code in the Share your Projects! → Dashboards & Frontend section of the forum might please many.

PrairieSnpr · October 21, 2024, 10:19am

I don’t think your file is valid, you define Environment twice, also I don’t know why you are trying to use the system python in a venv.

Maltavius · October 21, 2024, 10:47am

Entity visibility filter doesn’t let me select an entity

YAML is correct though

pw44 · October 21, 2024, 12:07pm

i didn’t understand. can you please clarify?

Troy-K · October 22, 2024, 7:25am

by adjusting all the default colors used in those graphs

WHY??? I liked the graph colors! How do I change them back?

PrairieSnpr · October 22, 2024, 10:08am

Why did you add this line? You likely don’t want to use system python uv, you want the uv installed in your venv. You also already have a environment line, so if you did want this, it should be added to the first entry.

karwosts · October 22, 2024, 12:19pm

You can change the graph colors with a theme. This theme restores the original colors:

    oldgraphs:
      modes:
        light:
        dark:
      graph-color-1: "#44739e"
      graph-color-2: "#984ea3"
      graph-color-3: "#00d2d5"
      graph-color-4: "#ff7f00"
      graph-color-5: "#af8d00"
      graph-color-6: "#7f80cd"
      graph-color-7: "#b3e900"
      graph-color-8: "#c42e60"
      graph-color-9: "#a65628"
      graph-color-10: "#f781bf"
      graph-color-11: "#8dd3c7"
      graph-color-12: "#bebada"
      graph-color-13: "#fb8072"
      graph-color-14: "#80b1d3"
      graph-color-15: "#fdb462"
      graph-color-16: "#fccde5"
      graph-color-17: "#bc80bd"
      graph-color-18: "#ffed6f"
      graph-color-19: "#c4eaff"
      graph-color-20: "#cf8c00"
      graph-color-21: "#1b9e77"
      graph-color-22: "#d95f02"
      graph-color-23: "#e7298a"
      graph-color-24: "#e6ab02"
      graph-color-25: "#a6761d"
      graph-color-26: "#0097ff"
      graph-color-27: "#00d067"
      graph-color-28: "#f43600"
      graph-color-29: "#4ba93b"
      graph-color-30: "#5779bb"

ok, thank you. and how shound it be defined, please?

PrairieSnpr · October 25, 2024, 9:44pm

Just remove it. Ensure uv is installed in the venv and you should be good as long as the path is set correctly.

@LiveMike78

sorry it took me so long to circle back to this
its been a busy month and old values continued to work fine with HA was 2024.9

when i try to use what you supplied
it says now is not a known value
it also does not like the ; at the end of the line

charettepa · November 1, 2024, 7:41pm

@LiveMike78

here is what ended up working for me
very similar but needs new Date(). instead of now.

var DT = new Date().toLocaleDateString("en-US", { "year": "numeric", "day": "numeric", "month": "long", });
var TM = new Date().toLocaleTimeString('en-US', { hour: '2-digit', minute: '2-digit', hour12: false });

Still, its incredibly weird that the issue exist in nodered but ONLY once HA is 2024.10+
As long as I stayed on 2024.9.x it continued to work

Hello,
I have about 12 MC6 thermostats at home, bought in 2020 and I used the MyComfort House android app, but then it stopped working and now I can’t connect to the thermostats at all. Why this app won’t even connect to the internet even though I’m using 2.4hz wifi.

What does your question have to do with home assistant?

If anyone wants to return the map marker borders and map breadcrumb trails to the original colors it can be done with card mod.

Edit the Map Card using the Code Editor like this:

type: map
card_mod:
  style:
    ha-map$:
      .leaflet-pane: |
        path[stroke="#4269d0"]{
          fill: #44739e;
          stroke: #44739e;
        }
        path[stroke="#f4bd4a"]{
          fill: #984ea3;
          stroke: #984ea3;
        }
    ha-map $ ha-entity-marker[entity-id="person.paul"] $: |
      .marker{
        border-color: #44739e !important;
        }
    ha-map $ ha-entity-marker[entity-id="person.tina"] $: |
      .marker{
        border-color: #984ea3 !important;
        }
entities:
  - entity: person.paul
  - entity: person.tina

For the breadcrumb trail the stroke=“#4269do” is the new color which is replaced by fill:#44739e and stroke: #44739e to give the desired line color. This is repeated for each breadcrumb trail on the map (I only have 2)

For the border around the marker the entity-id=“person.paul” is used to identify the marker to change and border-color: #4269d0 gives the desired color.
