This beta focuses on picker reliability, More Info activity synchronization, mixed-history graphs, and clearer comparison colours.
Unavailable, deleted, or renamed entities remain visible in the target picker, making stale selections easy to identify and remove.
The More Info Activity log now follows the Advanced History date and interval selections.
When Advanced History More Info is disabled, the Activity log retains Home Assistant’s original behaviour.
When only one entity is visible, comparison periods temporarily use distinct colours:
Y1 receives the comparison palette when it is the only visible entity.
Y2 keeps its normal colour while a Y1 entity remains visible.
Y2 receives the comparison palette when all Y1 entities are hidden.
Normal entity colours return when another entity is unhidden.
Fixed interval picker changes not updating the More Info Activity log.
Fixed entities containing both numeric attributes and categorical state history sometimes missing their state graph.
Numeric and state history now appear in separate, clearly labelled graph sections.
Removed obsolete picker implementations, unused frontend state, styles, and storage helpers.
General frontend cleanup following the recent picker and More Info changes.
Open HACS → Integrations → Advanced History .
Select Update .
If the beta is not offered automatically, open the three-dot menu, choose Redownload , and select v2.1.0-beta.3.
Restart Home Assistant.

Download advanced_history.zip from this release.
Replace /config/custom_components/advanced_history with the contents of the ZIP.
Restart Home Assistant.
Refresh the browser or reopen the Home Assistant app.
Confirm unavailable or deleted entities remain visible in the picker.
Open More Info and verify Activity follows both date and interval changes.
Graph an entity containing numeric attributes and state history and confirm both sections appear.
Enable comparisons, hide all but one entity, and confirm the temporary comparison colours behave correctly on both Y1 and Y2.
This is a beta release. Please report any unexpected behaviour through the GitHub issue tracker.
