Expander Card

Might be so, i only noticed “something” i 2 cards(where i “hide” Cams i only need to monitor occasionally), however i never investigated it further, could be the cams don’t like to be there :slight_smile:
So thanks for the information :wink:
ahh wait, you say in UI editor , well there is something spooky ! very odd behavior, but i always edit in code-editor-mode instead
If that’s what he fixed , i definitely think spencermarmer should accept clarinet’s pull-request

@boheme61 I don’t know if clarinetJWD fixed this, it was my hope. But unfortunately when I now compare the versions on github, it doesn’t look like that to me as a layman.

It looks like all expander cards are affected by this error.

Would you guys know why the expand arrow is blue with my iPhone? I’ve been using Home Assistant for years and this is the only card that’s ever done that. It’s white in my web browser like it’s supposed to be blue and iOS.

Card mod doesn’t seem to work or I can’t figure out how to target the chevron arrow to force it white

Any help would be appreciated

nope, dont have an iphone and never will :wink:

It actually turns out the iPhone isn’t the problem. I did more card mod stuff and I’ve never seen this before. When I’m on the edit screen, literally type in the code the color changes the way I want. But when I hit save on the main screen where the card is visible as an update on any browser or my phone. I’ve been using Home Assistant for years and this is the only card that’s ever done this.

Yes, I’ve cleared the cache

That’s the case for me too and I haven’t found a solution for it yet.

The Title Card also has a problem with card mod. For example, if you hide border and box shadow with card mod, then that works too. But when I edit the entire expander card again, the entire card mod settings for title card are gone and I have to reset them.

I’m starting to think I need to look for an alternative to the expander card.

If you haven’t changed from ALI’s Expander, that would be your first move ;), it is very unstable, and full of bugs, ! ( spencermarmer fixed most of these )
PS: Im not saying you get use to the Very Odd behavior in UI-Mode, it’s damn annoying, so i just avoid it, and use code-mode

@alexsaas Card-mod works fine in spacemarmer’s edition, for me, even colors/margins for the various elements , in both title-card (and other cards as "title-card:) Aswell for the Expander Cards it self
But you should ask these questions in some of the huge Card-Mod Topics

@boheme61 Thanks for the tip! Then I’d better give the yet another expander card a chance. :wink:

Wait, do I have to do something different to get the Spencer version?

How do I get that version? Is it a different repository? It looked like the same link to me.

And also, if it’s not too much trouble, if card_mod is working for you, can you please tell me how to get the little chevron arrow to change color?

You click on the link, and then you read what it says, there are even links to other repositories/forks , and other valuable information ( Such as howto install it ) , othevice read Alia’s

It might look the same, but it’s different “Owner” ! ( For same reasons it’s doesn’t say that it is Alia5’s repository )

You go to HACS and paste in the Url, which ever you want

Most likely every repository have the information on how to install

This is Not a Card_Mod Topic, it’s a FeatureRequest, for unknown reasons

Ask in one of the huge Card_mod Topics

Or change it in your Theme, If you use dev-tools in ie FF, you notice it’s it defaults to the defined Theme color

ripple:
color: red;

Mine is white btw, by default, doo to my Theme, and because i don’t use Apple Products :wink:

Yea I regret ever picking up an iPhone believe me lol I’m all PC and Linux besides my phone

I feel pretty stupid but no matter which fork I click on it’s the same link that comes up for me. I can’t figure this out .

Read above ! … You should try to read the Topics you interact in ALL of it

I’ve been reading. Ok I finally have it installed but it. Role everything. Saying it doesn’t exist in my phone and the original expander doesn’t exist now on my browser .

I’ve cleared cache several times

Reboot you HA Device

And this is the name now ! If you manage to install the correct Card

  • type: custom:yet-another-expander-card

PS: And you should really read this ( Take it slow, don’t skip lines or sections, even if you find it boring ) PLEASE ! ( As a Bonus You might get more answers to The Topics, and Questions you Post )

I know to reboot, and I’m trying to take my time and understand. Do they conflict with each other . Do I need to remove the old one?

Yes, you don’t want the Alia5 repos, Delete it

Btw, i noticed you previously had problems with “Clearing Cache”

When you click the clear cache, you normally get “Options” such as tickboxes And Time.
Again, take your time to read, if your in doubt, tick/mark all boxes, and Chose … Clear All, Not last hour, not last 2 hour, Not Today … ALL

@image969 Try the version/fork of clarinetJWD, like I did. Because the chevron is not blue, but in the primary text color. Also on iPhone/iOS.

But the problem caused by the refreshing bug when using card_mod to remove the border from the title card, for example, still exists:

After any subsequent changes, even in yaml mode, of the entire card, the card_mod modifications of the title card will be lost and you will have to set them again.
