I created controls for my TV, and with it, I implemented automation that will trigger once I press the button.
I have a couple of problems:

  1. The Name of the card is not showing.
    Whatever I do the name is not showing and because of it I get disbalance in UI
    My code is:

      - type: glance
           show_name: false
           show_state: false
           column_width: calc(100% / 1)
           entities:
             - entity: input_boolean.playback_buttons
               name: TEST
               tap_action: toggle
     - type: conditional
       conditions:
         - entity: input_boolean.playback_buttons
           state: "on"
       card:
         type: glance
         show_name: false
         show_state: false
         column_width: calc(100% / 4)
         entities:
           - entity: script.d3_rewind
             tap_action: toggle
           - entity: script.d3_stop
             tap_action: toggle
           - entity: script.d3_play
             tap_action: toggle
           - entity: script.d3_forward
             tap_action: toggle
           - entity: script.d3_left
             tap_action: toggle
           - entity: script.d3_right
             tap_action: toggle
           - entity: script.d3_up
             tap_action: toggle
           - entity: script.d3_down
             tap_action: toggle

  2. The menu that is triggered once I press the button it is not formatting as it should.
    From the image below you can see that the generated layout looks different than intended
    I want to have 2 rows of 4 buttons but for some reason, it is not generating correctly.

The code above is showing that as well.

Any suggestion would be greatly appreciated.

I am new in Home Assistant and a lot of my code is “Frankensteined” :smiley:
I probably did something wrong but cant wrap my head oround it.

I think the following snippet in your configuration is why the name isn’t shown:

Try changing false into true if you want the name visible :wink: (or remove the line altogether, the default value is true if the line is missing)

That was it. The first problem solved thanks a lot.

Regarding my second question.
I found out the solution.

column_width: calc(100% / 4) is apsolite
New code for the same setup is

columns: 4

Now everything works correctly
