I would like to be able to change the order of views in my Overview section. I have several groups set up as views, they appear as separate tabs in my overview section. I would like to change the order they appear. I have tried using “order:” in the customise section, but this doesn’t seem to have the desired effect.
Is it possible to change the tab order of views in the overview section? If it is, I would appreciate someone telling me how (I am not using Lovelace)!
Order works for me. Show your config and we’ll help you.
Thank you.
In configuration.yaml I have the line:
customize: !include_dir_merge_named configuration_files/customisations
And then in a file (called groups.yaml) within the folder so referenced I have:
group.all_lights:
control: hidden
hidden: false
order: 2
group.default_view:
order: 1
group.camera:
order: 3
group.all_automations:
control: hidden
hidden: false
order: 5
group.sensors:
order: 4
group.all_scripts:
control: hidden
hidden: false
order: 6
group.master_scripts:
control: hidden
I also have other customisations in other files for other entities. I have not assigned "order"s to those other entities.
The above groups, are all shown as tabs in the overview section - they all have “view: yes” in their group definitions.
I can provide more of my configuration if required 
The order: has to be used in the customize of the group. Not in the group definition itself.
See the Example in the customize section
Yes, the groups.yaml file is part of my customisations. (Confusingly named I know, but its the customisations for my groups and it resides in my “customisations” folder.)
Sorry. I didn’t read well enough. Have you tried to add an extra friendly name or icon to the customize sections to check if is actually doing anything?
Yes, I have some icons for the camera and lights sections and they work ok.
Apologies, looking again, the icons are defined in the group definition not in the customise section.
But the “hidden:” part is working ok - i.e., those ALL groups (lights, automations, scripts) are showing in my overview area… Though not in the right order!
I have figured this out and it was my fault. :-/
Inconsistencies between group names and the names of the groups used in customise.
