🔹 Card-mod - Add css styles to any lovelace card

Sure, search for background under the main card options here.

You’re welcome – and thank you.

Yes, you’re right. It’s one of the things I did but the problem was that I wanted the “smart” logic of MMP to size and fit the picture in the same way it does for cover art (I could’ve copied just all the attributes of the cover class but didn’t want to duplicate it, or size the image exactly).

Compare e.g.

Screenshot 2021-02-21 at 21.50.58

which cuts off the picture in the same way your picture in your example is, with

Screenshot 2021-02-21 at 21.51.23

which is what you get using MMP’s background option (cropped but in a different way).

But, it’s still useful if people want to have all kinds of other interesting effects and things that the background setting doesn’t cover.

Hi Everyone,

I tried to set up a very “easy” thing, namely to change the border color of a state-badge inside a picture elements card. Nothing happens, and I don’t really get what I’m doing wrong.

I’ve added this to raw editor:

  - type: state-badge
    entity: binary_sensor.window4
      style:
        ha-state-label-badge:
          $:
            ha-label-badge:
              $: |
                .label-badge .label span{
                  color: #000 !important;
                }          
          .: |
            :host {
              {% if is_state('binary_sensor.window4', 'Open') %} --label-badge-red: #03A9F4; {% endif %};
              {% if not is_state('binary_sensor.window4', 'Closed') %} --label-badge-red: #fd79a8; {% endif %}; 
              color: #fff;
            }

I know it’s working for badges at the header, but seems like it’s not the same for every card.

  1. Wrong indentation for the "style" keyword.
  2. Picture elements card has its OWN "style" keyword for an element like “state-badge”. You are not supposed to use this "style" section for "card-mod".
  3. Using the “style” you can do this non-card-mod styling:
  - type: picture-elements
    style: |
      ha-card { height: 120px !important; }
    image: /local/images/blue.jpg
    elements:
      - type: state-badge
        entity: sensor.cleargrass_1_co2
        style:
          color: orange
          '--label-badge-text-color': magenta
          '--label-badge-red': green
          '--label-badge-background-color': yellow
          top: 18%
          left: 10%

Hi Ildar,

Originally, I wanted the color to be red on state-change, but simply trying to overwrite ‘–label-badge-red’ also did not succeed.

Checked in Chrome and Edge.

I just realized that for "binary_sensor" we must use --label-badge-blue instead of --label-badge-red.

    badges:
      - entity: binary_sensor.updater
        name: 'some name'
        style: |
          :host {
            --label-badge-blue: cyan;
          }
      - entity: sensor.cleargrass_1_co2
        name: 'some name'
        style: |
          :host {
            --label-badge-red: cyan;
          }

Edited my first post about badges - 🔹 Card-mod - Add css styles to any lovelace card - #1310 by Ildar_Gabdullin.

Hi @Ildar_Gabdullin

in response to a rather old post of mine on conditional badges, Conditional badge at all possible? was written by @Troon

please add that to the Badge styling options :wink: it is rather powerful, and dearly missed in current core Badge usage

What do you mean? thomasloven is the developer of card_mod. Do you mean that they should make an example?

Thank you for a good idea, here added a couple of examples (+ added a link here).

Badges: conditional display:

Example 1 - toggle “Show / Hide badge”:

  - title: badge
    path: badge
    badges:
      - entity: sensor.cleargrass_1_co2
        name: conditional
        style: |
          :host {
            {% if is_state('input_boolean.test_boolean','on') %}
            display: inline-block;
            {% else %}
            display: none;
            {% endif %}
          }
    cards:
      - type: entities
        entities:
          - entity: input_boolean.test_boolean
            name: Show badge

Example 2 - show a badge if the sensor is available:

      - entity: sensor.cleargrass_1_co2
        name: display if available
        style: |
          :host {
            {% if states(config.entity) in ['unavailable','unknown'] -%}
            display: none;
            {% else %}
            display: inline-block;
            {% endif %}
          }

… one more styling:

Badges: hidden name:

      - entity: sensor.cleargrass_1_co2
        name: transparent color
        style: |
          :host {
            color: transparent;
          }

Update 17.08.23: this fix may not be needed since there is a PR to implement the “show_name” option which is not working this moment.


More examples are described here.

No, see post below yours, above this one :wink:

Has anyone figured out how to use backdrop-filter css for cards? The css style is used for popups/more-info (and works great there). I wanted to use this as background for cards, bur couldn’t get it to work. Maybe it’s not possible, or am I missing something?

Was the background transparent?

Partially, i used background css value rgba(0,0,0,0.5). Background showed fine, but backdrop did nothing.

Screenshot?

So this is what I had as the code and screenshot:

Now, these are 4 cards inside a stack-in-card. I do know that you need mod-card to style horizontal-stack card. But I believe stack-in-card is handled differently and doesn’t need mod-card. Hence why I use style option. Btw, the background is completely black with this code, so style options do work. Also the volume slider card itself has no background set (completely transparant). So the black is the background of stack-in-card. If I set ‘–ha-card-background’: none, then the black is completely gone and background of Lovelace shows (so volume slider cards have no background).

Style code:

                  - cards:
                      - VOLUME SLIDER CARD
                      - VOLUME SLIDER CARD
                      - VOLUME SLIDER CARD
                      - VOLUME SLIDER CARD
                    mode: horizontal
                    keep:
                      background: true
                      border_radius: true
                      margin: true
                      outer_padding: false
                    style:
                      '--ha-card-background': 'rgba(0, 0, 0, 1)'
                      '--ha-card-box-shadow': none
                      '--ha-card-border-radius': 20px
                      '--ha-card-backdrop-filter': blur(17px) !important
                      '--ha-card-webkit-backdrop-filter': blur(17px) !important                      
                      left: 50%
                      top: 70%
                      width: 1000px
                      height: 800px
                      font-smoothing: none  

Btw, this is all setup inside a picture-elemente-card. Which is why I have left/top/width/height variables. To my understanding I need this styling format in order to have positions working. This format

                style: |
                  ha-card {
                    height: 100vh;
                    width: 100vw;
                  } 

doesn’t work when styling cards inside a picture-element if you also want to use positions (I believe).

Any idea what I can try?

What does it look like when they have no background? What does it look like with a partially transparent one?

I’m struggling to get the icon color changed, after allot of trial and error i have accomplished the code below but the icon color is now black instead of the normal blue color. Is there anyone that have the key to get this working. :slight_smile:

type: 'custom:mod-card'
card:
  type: horizontal-stack
  cards:
    - type: entity
      entity: climate.vicare_heating
      attribute: active_vicare_program
      style: |
        ha-card {
          --state-icon-color: {% if is_state_attr('config.entity', 'reduced') %} #50A14F {% else %} #5591c2 {% endif %};
          }

Don’t quote config.entity.

Thanks for the reply. Just tested without the quotes but still the icon color stays black.

is_state_attr takes 3 arguments

Thanks Petro. Not to take the easy way but any change to show a example how i can toggle the icon color, i just can’t seem to make it work… :slight_smile:
