Dashboard button

Can I combine two buttons in one dashboard card? I would like the two garage door buttons below to be in one Card on the dashboard. Is this possible?

Thanks in advance.

Pictures are great but yaml is better.
What type of cards is it, post the yaml.

Try entities card.

This one will need a bit of playing around with to see what best fits.
I think your best bet is to with either the glance card, or have a horizontal stack that’ll let you put the cards you currently have into one row. i.e. [Card] | [Card]

I tried Horizontal card stack but I don’t understand the error: “Config is not an object”. Yes, they are side-by-side but no icon and state.

Horizontal stack will stack cards, not entities

type: horizontal-stack
cards:
  - type: entity
    entity: cover.myq693
  - type: entity
    entity: cover.myq693

Button for MyQ693:

show_name: true
show_icon: true
type: button
tap_action:
  action: none
entity: cover.myq693
show_state: true
hold_action:
  action: none
icon_height: 50px

Button for MyQ151:

show_name: true
show_icon: true
type: button
tap_action:
  action: none
entity: cover.myq151
show_state: true
hold_action:
  action: none
icon_height: 50px
type: horizontal-stack
cards:
  - type: button
    tap_action:
      action: none
    entity: cover.myq693
    show_state: true
    hold_action:
      action: none
    icon_height: 50px
    show_name: true
    show_icon: true
  - type: button
    tap_action:
      action: none
    entity: cover.myq151
    show_state: true
    hold_action:
      action: none
    icon_height: 50px
    show_name: true
    show_icon: true

Don’t work in YAML view - work in Visual editor view. It’s much simpler and you’ll avoid issues like this

with the tap_action, that will not do anything if you tap it

maybe tap_action toggle?

With the Entities card, for garage doors, they show action which I don’t like because I might accidentally click/swipe which triggers the opening/closing of the garage door - BAD. And I can’t probably get rid of the action arrows.

OK use the buttons as shown above

One wants YAML codes but another wants Visual!!! I use visual then I look at the yaml code to see if I can insert something! Cheers.

Yes, yes,yes. This did it. Thank you so much, Holdestmade.

Guys, consider this closed. Thanks for your suggestions. They are now side-by-side which saves screen real estate.

See, that cannot be done in Visual mode!

You know you can change the name to something more obvious, either in the entity itself or on the button card only

This is because it’s easier to view/edit/copy/paste etc. YAML between systems.

My recommendation is generally to not work within YAML however as it avoids a lot of the pain you might experience.

Oh, I looked back to edit the stack in the visual mode, and this could be done in visual. I take my comment above that ‘that cannot be done in Visual mode!’. Sorry.

Agreed. Both visual and yaml works best. Thanks.

I’m enjoying this. This is neat.
