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

Do not use this kind of commenting inside strings.
Get rid of it - see if it changes anything.

Ildar_Gabdullin · May 31, 2022, 8:59pm

Agree - this is what I observed.

e-raser · May 31, 2022, 9:04pm

I didn’t have it, just in this forums. So yes, I tried and no, it changed nothing
Anyway, I’d go for an icon styling instead. Unfortunately…

…this is what I feared. So I can’t have my little “mdi:check-circle” icon in green if everything’s fine but show the number if it isn’t. Too bad, but it is what it is right.
Maybe you want to add this information (either icons or values - no mix possible) in your “Dynamic icon” post?

So my last badge question is:

Can we add a label badge (this text:
grafik
), if the entity does not provide one (does not have an unit)?

e-raser · May 31, 2022, 9:33pm

Wow, that’s completely crazy:

I use the exact same code as 2 hours before…

      - entity: sensor.season
        name: Jahreszeit
        icon: mdi:home
        style:
          ha-state-label-badge:
            $:
              ha-label-badge:
                $: |
                  .badge-container .label-badge .value {
                    #color: #DF4C1E;
                    #--ha-label-badge-title-width: 60px;
                  }
                  .badge-container .label-badge {
                    border-radius: 20% !important;
                  }
          .: |
            :host {
              {% set season = states(config.entity) %}
              {% set icon =
                {
                  'winter':'mdi:snowflake',
                  'spring':'mdi:flower',
                  'summer':'mdi:sun',
                  'autumn':'mdi:leaf'
                } %}
              {% set icon_color =
                {
                  'winter':'rgb(138,180,248)',
                  'spring':'rgb(106,168,79)',
                  'summer':'rgb(0,0,0)',
                  'autumn':'rgb(255,126,0)'
                } %}
              {% set border_color =
                {
                  'winter':'rgb(138,180,248)',
                  'spring':'rgb(106,168,79)',
                  'summer':'rgb(230,145,56)',
                  'autumn':'rgb(255,126,0)'
                } %}
              {% set back_color =
                {
                  'winter':'rgb(255,255,255)',
                  'spring':'rgb(216,251,135)',
                  'summer':'rgb(255,242,204)',
                  'autumn':'rgb(252,229,205)'
                } %}
              --card-mod-icon: {{ icon[season] if season in icon else 'mdi:home' }};
              --label-badge-text-color: {{ icon_color[season] if season in icon_color else 'var(--paper-item-icon-color)' }};
              --label-badge-red: {{ border_color[season] if season in border_color else 'red' }};
              --label-badge-background-color: {{ back_color[season] if season in back_color else 'white' }};
            }

but now get another result:

grafik

That’s the default icon. The spring one (mdi:flower) is not applied.

How can this be possible? That’s pretty unbelievable - and unreliable.

It’s the same on different devices so checking browser developer mode logs won’t be helpful I guess. Absolutely no idea where to start. And yes, I also removed all the # in that section…

Now, if I completely remove this part:

          ha-state-label-badge:
            $:
              ha-label-badge:
                $: |
                  .badge-container .label-badge .value {
                    #color: #DF4C1E;
                    #--ha-label-badge-title-width: 60px;
                  }
                  .badge-container .label-badge {
                    border-radius: 20% !important;
                  }

…the icon is correct!

I don’t get it. It was working already, squad badge and dynamic icons. Crazy.

Ildar_Gabdullin · May 31, 2022, 10:12pm

Probably it is possible with a bit of efforts:

type: vertical-stack
cards:
  - type: entities
    entities:
      - entity: input_boolean.test_boolean
        name: show value
  - type: custom:badge-card
    badges:
      - entity: sensor.xiaomi_cg_1_temperature
        name: dynamic icon
        icon: mdi:fire
        card_mod:
          style:
            ha-state-label-badge $:
              ha-label-badge $: |
                .badge-container .label-badge .value::after {
                  {% if is_state('input_boolean.test_boolean','on') %}
                    content: "{{states(config.entity)}}";
                  {% endif %}
                }   
              .: |
                ha-label-badge ha-state-icon {
                  {% if is_state('input_boolean.test_boolean','on') %}
                    display: none;
                  {% endif %}
                }

Ildar_Gabdullin · May 31, 2022, 10:57pm

You can, results may differ on different browsers:

type: custom:badge-card
badges:
  - entity: sensor.xiaomi_cg_1_co2
    name: default
  - entity: sensor.ha_count_sensor
    name: added UoM
    card_mod:
      style:
        ha-state-label-badge $ ha-label-badge $: |
          .badge-container .label-badge .value::after {
            content: "my UoM";
            background-color: var(--ha-label-badge-color, var(--primary-color));
            color: var(--ha-label-badge-label-color, white);
            border-radius: 1em;
            padding: 9% 16% 8%;
            font-weight: 500;
            overflow: hidden;
            position: absolute;
            bottom: -1em;
            left: -0.2em;
            right: -0.2em;
            line-height: 1.05em;
            font-size: 0.5em;
          }

But you better create a template sensor with a UoM.

Does anyone know, why and how mod-card around another card (even without card_mod, etc.) is changing the order of the card(s) in the dashboard? And how to avoid this?

Ildar_Gabdullin · June 1, 2022, 3:12pm

Are you talking about an order in masonry layout?

arganto · June 1, 2022, 3:19pm

Yes. When I use mod-card to change a conditional card or vertical stack, it has another order than without the conditional card.

Ildar_Gabdullin · June 1, 2022, 3:36pm

Probably it does not change the order, it makes neighbouring cards to stick together?
If yes - then a similar behaviour is observed with config-template-card.

So far I have not observed anything similar with mod-card.

arganto · June 1, 2022, 3:38pm

Yes could be. I want to have the next one right to the one which I want to mod. But with mod-card the next is below the one. Can I avoid it?

Ildar_Gabdullin · June 1, 2022, 3:38pm

In similar cases I have to use layout-card’s breaks.
Also, in some cases wrapping into vertical-stack (one card only) helped (tested long time ago, do not know if it helps now).

arganto · June 1, 2022, 3:42pm

Thanks. I’ll try this. And everything “only”, because of the margins of invisible conditional content (your and my issue in issue list).

arganto · June 1, 2022, 3:58pm

No custom:layout-break is not helping. What a pity.

Until someone has further ideas (or at least some ideas about the “why”, I make it via themes

  card-mod-view-yaml: |
    hui-masonry-view $ div#columns div.column hui-vertical-stack-card $: |
      #root hui-conditional-card:nth-child(2) {
        {% if (states("binary_sensor.ui_alert") == "off") %}
          margin-top: 0px;
        {% endif %}
      }

Ildar_Gabdullin · June 1, 2022, 3:58pm

I got rid of these conditional rows/cards because of that margin)))
Replaced by card_mod or state-switch card.

Ildar_Gabdullin · June 1, 2022, 3:59pm

Give me a minimized code for the problem.

arganto · June 1, 2022, 4:07pm

type: vertical-stack
cards:
  - type: conditional
    conditions:
      - entity: binary_sensor.ui_alert
        state: 'on'
    card:
      type: custom:vertical-stack-in-card
      horizontal: true
      cards:
        - type: conditional
          conditions:
            - entity: input_boolean.alert_xxx
              state: 'on'
          card:
            type: custom:button-card
            [...]
        - type: conditional
          conditions:
            - entity: input_boolean.alert_xxx_fallig
              state: 'on'
          card:
            type: custom:button-card
            [...]
        [etc]
  - type: conditional
    conditions:
      - entity: binary_sensor.dwd_wetterwarnung_aktiv
        state: 'on'
    card:
      type: custom:vertical-stack-in-card
      cards:
        - type: custom:button-card
          [...]
        - type: markdown
          [...]
  - type: weather-forecast

So three “sections” A, B and C. If A and B are hidden, C has a top-margin which is not wanted. As it is a weather card, I can mod it. If Only A is hidden, B has an unwanted top-marging as well, but this is a conditional-card, which I cannot mod. And with mod-card the problem above.

But the one with theme hacking is working indeed as work-around.

        - type: weather-forecast
          entity: weather.home_met

  - type: button
    entity: sun.sun
    name: button after the stack

Replaced vertical-stack-in-card with stack-in-card (not using the 1st).
Margins for any cards in stack may be changed from the outer stack’s level (like it was proposed in your card-mod-theme example).
Note the div#root :nth-child(....) using.
Top margins are fixed by card-mod, top cards are horizontally aligned.

Regarding the “cards sticking together” problem.
It presents.
Here the vertical-stack is surrounded by “picture” cards - the stack is sticked to the next card:

If mod-card is removed - no sticking:

How to fix - use layout-card:

title: test-test-0
path: test-test-0
badges: []
type: custom:vertical-layout
cards:
   ...

  - type: custom:layout-break
  
  - type: custom:mod-card
    ....

  - type: custom:layout-break

  ...

Perfect. I first thought for this I would need to install https://github.com/thomasloven/lovelace-badge-card first (which I didn’t know it exists before). In the end, using your snippet…

          .badge-container .label-badge .value::after {
            content: "my UoM";
            background-color: var(--ha-label-badge-color, var(--primary-color));
            color: var(--ha-label-badge-label-color, white);
            border-radius: 1em;
            padding: 9% 16% 8%;
            font-weight: 500;
            overflow: hidden;
            position: absolute;
            bottom: -1em;
            left: -0.2em;
            right: -0.2em;
            line-height: 1.05em;
            font-size: 0.5em;
          }

…also works without having https://github.com/thomasloven/lovelace-badge-card installed. But good to know it’s possible to place badges everywhere. So thank you twice (for a factory solution with card-mod and for indirectly pointing me to another of Thomas’ great pieces of software)

Ildar_Gabdullin · June 1, 2022, 7:58pm

But I must advise once again:
