@ahs I’ll try it this weekend and give feedback. Thank you!

84

Yes indeed much more elegant solution. I will change my code aswell. Thanks

85

thanks a lot I managed to get it working when I select a theme.

86

Sorry if this is a silly question but if you change the Theme to another color how do you get back to the “normal” default colors? Is it as simple as saying

frontend.set_theme
      data:
        name: 'default'`

or do I need to define the color values back to the original by defining a Theme called “default” ?

87

Oh yes, I see… Actually I don’t have any badges, so I forgot it in my themesetup… Thanks for letting me know :slight_smile:

2 posts were split to a new topic: Dark Cyan Theme

89

There’s already a ‘default’ theme selection that allows it to revert back to blue/white

91

These themes are bomb. Added a few to my setup. Thanks much for sharing!

Hello all and thanks for all the nice themes you’ve created.

Is is possible to also increase the size of different elements, or perhaps there is a setting to magnify the whole UI by a factor of, let’s say, 1.3x?

95

It is possible to change also icons on the setting menu at left?

96

Here’s a script I use when working on groups, automations and themes so I don’t have to constantly restart HA. Just put script.reload somewhere where its easy to activate on your frontend.

  reload:
    sequence:
      - service: automation.reload
      - service: homeassistant.reload_core_config
      - service: frontend.reload_themes

Hi @Jer78,

Sounds interesting, can you let me know where this would be placed, is it part of an automation, or is “reload” a component i haven’t heard of…

Assuming it get triggered as part of a input select or a button click?

Thanks

98

Put it in the script section.

99

Do just like @lambtho posted in post 79, how to setup it, so you can change it from the frontend. That will create a dropdown list where you can choose your theme…

Hi everybody !

I’ve got trouble with my themes…

I added few themes in my frontend and it works very well when I choose one with Services :
services

But when I choose with an input_select it doesn’t work !!

themes

I have automations behind input_select, for example :

  - alias: 'Current Theme at Night'
    initial_state: 'on'
    trigger:
      - platform: state
        entity_id: sun.sun
        from: 'above_horizon'
        to: 'below_horizon'
    action:
      - service: input_select.select_option
        data:
          entity_id: input_select.select_theme
          option: 'Midnight'

  - alias: 'Theme midnight'
    trigger:
      platform: state
      entity_id: input_select.midnight
    action:
      - service: frontend.set_theme
        data:
          name: midnight

Could you help me please ?

Thank you !!

Put 'midnight' in quotes

    action:
      - service: frontend.set_theme
        data:
          name: 'midnight'
102

Shouldn’t the trigger of your second automation be something like this?

    trigger:
      platform: state
      entity_id: input_select.select_theme
      to: 'Midnight'
