Entities card - can still see names even with show_name: false

Configuration Frontend

I’m trying to strip out the names and icons on an entities card with in an stacked card. I wasn’t having much luck, so I thought I’d try on something simpler - a straight up entities card, but the issue persists.

I’m still getting there with YAML, so I assume I’m doing the classic noob and not indenting or interpreting the docs quite right. Is anyone able to point me in the right direction?

YAML:

type: entities
entities:
  - entity: binary_sensor.cloudmesh_gateway_wan_status
    name: internal screaming
    show_name: false
  - entity: sensor.radarr_disk_space_movies
    show_name: false
    icon: mdi:noodles
  - entity: sensor.adelaide_west_terrace_ngayirdapira_humidity
    show_icon: false

My card still showing icons and names:

The show_names option is not supported for the Entities card.
Probably you mistook with the Entity card.

You can ‘hide’ name and icon that way:


type: entities
entities:
  - entity: your_entity
    name: ' '
    icon: mdi:none

mdi:none is the same like mdi:blank - both do not exist, so they won’t be displayed.

100% aasumed ‘entity’ and ‘entities’ cards would work the same in this regard

IMHO absolutely different cards for diff purpose. For instance, entity card is read only card, entities card may change helpers.
