Active elements no longer change colour?

Share your Projects! Dashboards & Frontend

Hi,

Some time ago my Lovelace UI stopped showing ‘yellow’ (or the theme colour) for active items, i.e. switches.

I’ve tried to remove all additional frontend components, have resorted to the default theme and cleared all cache with no luck, any ideas?

Are you on 0.105 beta?
https://rc.home-assistant.io/blog/2020/02/04/release-105/#icons-no-longer-change-color-based-on-state
Should be released today.

  - type: entities
    title: your title
    state_color: true # <- NEW
    entities:
      ...

Thanks, yes, I obviously missed this! Thank you :slight_smile:

Seems a bad user experience to NOT use the old behaviour as the default though - HA once again making the user experience a ‘challenge’.

do we need to change for all cards?

Don’t know. Let’s wait for the release and the updated docs.

I’m on the beta and did :tired_face:

Apparently you can do this on a per entity basis (and a per domain basis…?) too. So in theory you should be able to do that and not have to it for every card.

I posted in the release thread on how exactly that needs to be accomplished but haven’t heard back on that yet.
