Entities card, button not showing friendly name

[busman]

I have a template button that has a friendly name:

But, when using it in a special button row element the name is not shown:

type: entities
entities:
  - entity: button.hvac_program_action
  - type: buttons
    entities:
      - entity: button.hvac_program_action
title: Buttons

Note no text on the button (2nd row here):

The docs for the button seem to indicate the friendly name should show. Should “bar” be showing or am I misunderstanding the docs?

This is on core 2026.2.3

The docs for the button seem to indicate the friendly name should show. Should “bar” be showing or am I misunderstanding the docs?

Needs show_name: true as this option is default false for buttons row.

Oh, that’s embarrassing. I was looking at the config for Button, not Buttons!

Thanks,
