Cannot find out how to change a font-size for the name:

So what is the intended behavior? What is currently happening?

[Amishman]

I thought I was following the doc but I must have something wrong. I am trying to modify a couple of CSS variables.

Here is my config:

              - type: light
                hold_action:
                  action: none
                entity: light.master_bedroom_light
                name: Master Bedroom
                card_mod:
                  style: |
                    ha-card {
                      --font-size: 1.7rem;
                      }

If I’m reading the inspector right, it appears as thought the card mod is being applied to the ha-card but in the wrong place.

Is anybody able to see what I’m doing wrong?

[KTibow (Kendell R)]

Change that to --name-font-size: 1.7rem !important;.

I posted the picture:

The font is changed but the text is not centrally aligned.

Spot on, thank you so much. Have just learnt so much from your post that you linked.

@sergio_pt

Clearly you haven’t even checked the examples there…

Clearly I cannot read or at least understand what I read :-). I can’t find an answer to my question there… at least not how I could use it.

@Mariusthvdb

so post that config here, and allow the community to help you.

This is my config:

Monitor 16:9

Test1 view - (in panel mode)
One Picture Elements Card Configuration
Picture used: 2748x1817 Pixel

Yaml for Picture Elements Card Configuration:

type: picture-elements
elements:

    style:
      color: blue
      left: 28.5%
      top: 18%
    type: state-label
    tap_action:
      action: more-info

Here I miss half of the picture.

My question is:

@sender

I have a large floorplan picture in /local. It shows in my picture entity elements card which I have created in my lovelace view in panel mode. The problem I am facing is that this picture scales out of the screen, it is too big… so my question is how is can “scale” down that image to for example 50% of the screen or 80% or fit to the window or whatever is possible.

Is there an option to:

@sender

I would like to have a picture entity card with a large floorplan that currently does not fit in a browser windows in full panel mode. I want to know how I can scale such an image.

Since I have really tried so much it is not doable anymore to reproduce what I have tried.
In the end I have tried all kinds of wrong things (css, cards, mods, Code copy, etc.). So I tried to ask my question the other way around initially. By writing it down as above I hope I will be able to get some help on how to scale a large image so it always fits the screen (mobile, 16:9, other browsers, browser in other format !=16:9, etc.)

[sergio_pt]

I believe your issue is clear now.
And I believe the custom layout card is the solution for you.
Try to create a column or a grid with a column of 80% the screen size using:

thomasloven/lovelace-layout-card

Here is a great example of usage:

NdR91/NdR-TabletUI

[Amishman]

Thank you @KTibow! That worked perfectly.

[sender]

I think I have solved for now the
Edit I was too fast…

It is still not scaling:

I did the same as below…

Test1 view - (in panel mode) it now size along with the browser size. Thank you!

The second one

Test2 view - (in panel mode)

I cannot solve that. what I have done:

thomasloven/lovelace-layout-card

thomasloven/lovelace-layout-card

And then full panel mode with 1 picture Picture Elements Card Configuration with yaml:

But it keeps showing:

How can I size that to always fit the screen?

[sergio_pt]

To be clear, your problem is with the height, correct?
In that case, your examples above, you should define for the row size instead of column.

[celeritas0725]

Hi! May I know how can I make the pop up in the sidebar info looks like this — transparent with blurred back ground?

And the pop up in the dashboard looks like this?

Using the existing themes, it looks like this - dark box:

I have copied and pasted from IOS Dark Theme to Mattias’ themes.yaml but to no avail.

Yes, correct, how and where should I do that?

[sergio_pt]

Try switching the same configuration you tested before, but defining % for rows.

Some experimentation with other cards will be very usefull.

[sender]

Sory, I really do not know now what to do… should I change this:

layout:
  grid-template-columns: auto 30px 25%
  grid-template-rows: auto
  grid-template-areas: |

to this

layout:
  grid-template-columns: auto 30px 25%
  grid-template-rows: auto 30px 25%
  grid-template-areas: |

because that does not do anything. sorry I am not a programmer but wanting to learn. And this is too steap leaning for now… appreciate all the help I can get…

Thanks for this job

@Ildar_Gabdullin

The font is changed but the text is not centrally aligned.

Found out a solution:

Changing a name’s width and margin-top are required.

      - entity: sensor.cleargrass_1_co2
        name: name font for a very long name
        style:
          ha-state-label-badge:
            $:
              ha-label-badge:
                $: |
                  .badge-container .title {
                    margin-top: 11px !important;
                  }
          .: |
            :host {
              --ha-label-badge-title-font-size: 7px;
              --ha-label-badge-title-width: 48px;
            }

Added it here (“Changing a font size for the name” part):
Badges: different styling

Where did you get those screenshots?

Hi! Those screenshots came from my Home Assistant based on the projects/contributions of Mattias_Persson, kalkih, basnijholt and the others.

Any ideas or tips?
