How to conditionally show the brightness percentage only if it’s a dimmable light. I have dimmer lights but also regular switches.
How to add a custom svg icon? or even a regular mdi: icon? I have some svg icons which are a bit more complex than the ones used here.
Also for testing, how should I best refresh/reload everything to make sure I will see all the changes I’ve made?
I would like to build a similar UI. But I have already a working interface which I want to keep working. I know I can use different dashboards. But how do you deal with files like sensors.yaml, configuration.yaml, ui-lovelace.yaml, etc. that are also part of the existing UI? How can I avoid breaking the current dashboard when experimenting with this awesome interface?
Thanks for your reply. But I still don’t know how to fix it. I have changed the time zone to asia, but I find out that me theme color’s change is not following my time zone, could you tell me how to change it ?
@Mattias_Persson this work is stunning both function-wise as well as visually.
I am completely new to HA (working with itf or a couple of weeks and trying to figure out stuff) and I can understand your ability to help everyone here is very limited…but I am confused, shouldn’t it be that if I install HA with your repository, visually speaking it should look the same? (functionality not given obviously). But I feel like it is missing all custom CSS settings (background colors, font styles, layout etc.) How do I add those and where can I find the CSS settings?
Trying to put a dashboard together for my parents that’s both nice looking and easy to use…
@VincenzoKoestler
If all CSS is missing you probable haven’t selected the right theme
Click on your user account picture (on desktop bottom option in the HA sidebar) and select the theme “tablet”
Also: This dashboard is not exactly for users who are new to HA, there is a LOT in here, custom components, templates, themes, popups, and everything works together in the specific setup… but unless you have the exact same setup as Mattias, it will take tinkering to get this to work as you want
I am not really new to HA, I have been using it for a few years, but it took me around 3 weeks to get everything setup, granted I have made a ton of changes, but still understanding how everything works and interacts takes some time
Multiple ways to go about it, but generally you want to incorporate your sensors in the example config files, or the other way around, whichever seems easier…
For me the easiest method was to backup my complete HA config, add it to a seperate (VM) HA instance so I could always see my old config, then replace my entire config with Matthias example config and port all my old stuff over one by one…
If you have been using an older version of this dashboard, in the august update the way the clock is rendered has changed.
Check out your template.yaml somewhere between line 10-20 and compare it with the august updates, it adds span class=“time”
Which is referenced in button_card_templates.yaml in the sidebar block under extra styles (the .time block)
It’s been a long time but now it’s time to update the dashboard to have the responsive. Thanks for this feature
However, I have a problem on one of my button-card.
If we look at the old version of my dashboard.
I have a temperature button with a grah. To make this button I made a button + a minigraph using the same coordinates to merge in one and it worked fine.
how stupid…seems like a fckn basic thing to do
is it weird that I got the stuff you described as difficult working but wasnt able to changr thr theme?
anyway, I have a completely different setup (like literally not using anything he does except plex)
But so far yesterday evening I was able to get the main dashboard and info screen working with my devices (replaced lights, user, NAS with QNAP, Device with iPad)
TVs are not replaced yet so its gonna take a bit more work but I think I made good progress. Thanks for your help! It finally looks how it is supposed to look fml
Until now it was mainly replacing entities but I guess there is much more coming up
@Mattias_Persson - Can I ask, is there a sensible way to merge the changes you make at your github repo with the local versions?
As obviously everyone is modifying the local lovelace-ui.yaml to add in their own entities etc. is the only option for us to edit in the changes you make by hand using github commit logs, or am I missing a smarter way to do this?
