I would like to propose a feature to enhance the Lovelace layout by allowing cards within full-width (8-block) sections to be displayed at a fixed width (e.g., 4 blocks) while being centered within the section. Currently, full-width sections automatically fill the width of the screen, which can make it difficult to create visually balanced layouts with fixed-width cards. By adding an option to center a card with a defined width, users would have greater flexibility to create cleaner, more organized dashboards on both small and large screens.
Additionally, I propose adding a slider or positioning control for each card’s starting position within a section. This would allow cards to start at any point within the layout, rather than always defaulting to the leftmost position. For instance, a 4-block-wide card could start at any block position within an 8-block section, creating custom alignments like left, right, or centered. The default behavior would still be to begin at the start, but this feature would allow users to easily adjust the starting position for a more personalized and aesthetically pleasing layout.
Thank you for considering this feature request. This addition would offer significant flexibility in layout design and allow users to tailor their dashboards more precisely to their preferences!
e.g.
|XXXXXXXX|
|__ XXXX __| ← here the card has length of 4 but is centered in a 8 block length
|XXXXXXXX|
|XXXXXXXX|
