πŸ”Ή Card-mod - Add css styles to any lovelace card

That is the URL
src=β€œhttp://192.168.1.12/bha-api/video.cgi?http-user=###&http-password=###”>

Add a picture card, and set the source to that, instead of using the iframe card. Does it work at all?

Lets see if anyone can help me;

Up to here, all good.

I am designing a more detailed card for each car, and I would like to have the same behavior on the Fuel Icon, (and also the lock icon coloring),
Could this be easier to be done via templating?
via card styling I have the following with ZERO success.

type: 'custom:stack-in-card'
mode: vertical
keep:
  box_shadow: false
  background: false
cards:
  - type: entities
    entities:
      - type: 'custom:multiple-entity-row'
        style:
          .icon ha-icon:
            $: |
              ha-svg-icon {
              {% if states('sensor.xxxxx_remaining_range_total')|float >= 120%}
                color: white !important;
              {% elif states('sensor.xxxxx_remaining_range_total')|float >= 50%}
                color: orange !important;
              {% else %}
                color: red !important;
              {% endif %}
              }
        entities:
          - entity: sensor.xxxxx_remaining_fuel
            name: Gasolina
          - entity: sensor.xxxxx_remaining_range_total
            name: AutonomΓ­a
        entity: sensor.xxxxx_remaining_range_total
        icon: 'mdi:gas-station'
        name: Serie 5
        secondary_info: last-updated
        show_state: false
        state_color: true
        state_header: true
      - type: divider

CSS targeting the ICON itself,

Have you tried to find a solution here for β€œmultiple-entity-row” ?
It was described here a few days ago.

Colored icons:
By default for entities like "sensor" (same for "device_tracker", "person", "zone", …) an icon’s color does not depend on the entity’s state.
There are two methods for changing a color:

  • using a "--paper-item-icon-color" variable;
  • using a "color" CSS property.

Method #1 (using a "--paper-item-icon-color" variable):
For all entities:
ΠΈΠ·ΠΎΠ±Ρ€Π°ΠΆΠ΅Π½ΠΈΠ΅

code

  ha-card {
    --paper-item-icon-color: red;
  }
entities:
  - entity: sensor.cleargrass_1_co2
  - entity: sensor.cleargrass_1_co2

For some entity:
ΠΈΠ·ΠΎΠ±Ρ€Π°ΠΆΠ΅Π½ΠΈΠ΅

code
type: glance
title: Colored icon (1st entity)
entities:
  - entity: sensor.cleargrass_1_co2
    style: |
      :host {
        --paper-item-icon-color: red;
      }
  - entity: sensor.cleargrass_1_co2

Method #2 (using a "color" CSS property):

code: For all entities
type: glance
card_mod:
  style:
    .entity:
      $: |
        state-badge {
          color: red;
        }
entities:
  - entity: sensor.cleargrass_1_co2

      style: |
        state-badge {
          color: red;
        }
  - entity: sensor.cleargrass_1_co2

By default for entities like "binary_sensor", "sun.sun", "switch", "input_boolean" - an icon’s color DOES depend on the entity’s state - if the property "state_color: true" is set for the card. If it is set to "false", then the color DOES NOT depend on the state - use same Methods #1, #2 as for the "sensor" (described above).
There are two methods for changing a color:

  • using "--paper-item-icon-color" and "--paper-item-icon-active-color" variables;
  • using a "color" CSS property.

Method #1 (using "--paper-item-icon-color" and "--paper-item-icon-active-color" variables):
image

code
type: glance
state_color: true
style: |
  ha-card {
    --paper-item-icon-color: red;
    --paper-item-icon-active-color: cyan;
  }
entities:
  - entity: binary_sensor.service_on_value
  - entity: binary_sensor.iiyama_2_ping_availability_status

Method #2 (using a "color" CSS property) - identical to the Method #2 described for the "sensor" entity above.

How to implement conditional color dependently on state for "binary_sensor" using Method #2 (may be used for "sun.sun" & others too with some corrections):

Unfortunately, not even after fixing syntax error you made :wink:
But at the end I’ve made it after lot of trial&errors

style:
  layout-card: '{background-color: red !important}'

Still however don’t understand why it doesn’t work this way:

style:
  ha-card:
    layout-card: '{background-color: red !important}'

IMO it should. since layout-card is child of ha-card (and ha-card alone is accessible), see the DOM tree:

Anyway, this little success led me to final solution:

style:
  layout-card:
    $: |
      div#columns {margin: 15px !important}
      div.column {overflow-x: visible !important}

Because card-mod was designed with a different syntax.

How can I change the font size of the β€œsecondary info”? Tried for hours now without any luck.

Sure. Do you have themes set up?

Yes, i’ve a dark theme installed.

frontend:
  themes: !include_dir_merge_named themes/

Please, could you point me to the right direction to solve??

Thanks a lot.

Post your dark theme’s YAML file, I’ll edit it, paste it back in, restart HA, and it should be gone.

This is my theme.
Thanks a lot.
