Does this card work with groups? Iām having a little play, and it would be nice if a card could be a group of lights that toggles on/off. Doesnāt seem to work though.
Also - the popup is just blank (dark screen) with nothing else on lights. Any idea why this would be?
i have not test it with groups and i dont think it works if you tested it.
Are you using the pop-up with the group or with a light entity? because group wonāt work here i think. and are you using the custom popup card of just the default?
What do you think the likelihood of getting groups integrated would be? This would be a real deal breaker for me I think as that is how I turn rooms on / off with several lights / switches in.
Try using the popup card as a normal card to check if it is installed and works than we can try to find out why it wont work in pop up:) let me know if that works
I may be doing this slightly backwards with groups thenā¦ How would you toggle a whole room of devices on / off with the UI? I assumed that groups was the way to go?
I got only 1 group but itās from hue and comes in home assistant as 1 light entity which are 3 lights so never really needed the groups in home assistant.
Ah - I see. So just to give you some context with my groups. I use a mixture of Hue/Ikea/Xiaomi lights and switches through a Deconz stick. Then I have LightwafeRF lights and some Tuya lights.
As you can imagine I need to use groups as there are different systems in each room.
Love these cards thank so much!! Much easier than how I have been doing it!
When I am using the pop up for my dimmer switches I donāt get the dimmer only an on or off switch, is there something special I need to do to get a dimmer to work? Thanks!
Great to hear you like it.
The pop-up will show a brightness slider instead of the switch if stateObj.attributes.supported_features > 9
so can you check in you developer tools for the entity you are using what the supported_features number is? maybe the number im checking for isnt the right on.
i donāt think you can change that the card must be changed.
but @jimz011 told i had to set it to > 9 because of some sonoff stuff @jimz011 what was that can you remember?
Maybe i need to change it to ==1 or > 9 or maybe make it a config setting for the card.
Dave did you use hacs to install it or did you place it in your www directory youself?
If you edit the file on line 165 from:
${e.attributes.supported_features>9?F to: ${e.attributes.supported_features>0?F
than it works for your setup and i will make a fix in next release.
