Hide the group card switch

Configuration
4

OK, add me into the group. There are a couple of places it’s useful, but mostly I’d like to hide it too.

5

Same problem

6

I would like this also. I have a bunch of “configuration” switches (Detect Motion, Sleeping, etc) grouped together that should NEVER be all turned on/off at once. A simple boolean parameter on a group to hide the group switch would be great.

Where do we officially request/vote on features?

7

There is a feature request section in these forums; if you post there people in this thread can vote on it.

Hello,
I have the same problem. I never use the Group switch…It would be great to have an option to hide the switch.

Does anybody knows if there is a formal request of this feature? If not, I can request it and all of us can vote it. :wink:

I would love to hide the group card switch in at least 1 case, possibly several cases too. If there is a feature request for this, it will definitely get my vote.

10

I know it’s not a great help but I was just looking at the custom panel examples and noticed there is no group switch in the video demo so there must be an easy fix for this:

11

Add me to the list of people who want an option to disable this.

12

Since it hadn’t been done yet, I created a feature request for this which you can find here. Please go over there and vote! :wink:

In case someone gets here, use

control: hidden

Thanks @sagilo , added that under my group entry, beside name and entities, work like a charm :+1:

15

This is an old post but thanks :slight_smile:

Finally I found the correct statement:

show_header_toggle: false

It looks like the control: hidden was a setting that was deprecated when lovelace was introduced (see link).

Unfortunately, the show_header_toggle: false does not work for me and I can’t find another statement or option anywhere. Curious if anyone here has a solution…

I use show_header_toggle: false quite frequently and it works. You may have to share your code to determine the problem.

I have the following group:

  name: Meterstanden
  icon: mdi:gauge
  entities:
    - sensor.power_consumption_low
    - sensor.power_consumption_high
    - sensor.power_production_low
    - sensor.power_production_high
    - sensor.power_consumption_currently
    - sensor.gas_consumption

But as soon as I add show_header_toggle: false to this group in the groups.yaml I get an error via the notification area of HA telling me that the groups cannot load.

First of all, the page about groups you linked to still says you can use control: hidden for what you want to achieve. There is no word about it being deprecated, nor can I find a PR on Github in which that setting would have been deprecated.

As far as the show_header_toggle: false setting is concerned: you are trying to use this as a setting for a group, which it is not. It is strictly a Lovelace UI setting. You can find examples of it being used here.

21

Not sure if this is still relevant but I’d also like to be able to disable the switch for groups… tried the above suggestions and they didn’t work which isn’t a surprise as the instructions don’t contain those options.

22

Maybe I’m missing the point here, but I have no issues when trying to hide the header toggle in my Lovelace configuration. An example:

title: Settings
icon: mdi:cog
cards:
  - type: vertical-stack
    cards:
      - type: entities
        entities:
          - input_boolean.notify_persistent
          - input_boolean.notify_pushover
          - input_number.pushover_priority
        show_header_toggle: false
        title: Notification settings
      - type: entities
        entities:
          - input_boolean.mode_summer
          - input_boolean.mode_christmas
          - input_boolean.mode_vacation
          - entity: switch.flux_light_adjustment
            secondary_info: last-changed
        show_header_toggle: false
        state_color: true
        title: Automation settings

See? No header toggles. This is completely independent of whatever entities are listed in the card.

The header toggle is a UI feature so if you want to hide it, you have to tell Lovelace to do so. You can’t tell the group itself to hide the toggle, that option is no longer supported.

I think it’s more that I’ve posted in the wrong thread now that I’ve looked at the thread title again… anyway, as I’m here; I’ve created a group using the following:-

  Dishwasher_Statistics:
    name: Kitchen Dishwasher
    icon: mdi:power-socket-uk
    entities:
      - switch.kitchen_dishwasher
      - sensor.socket_7_consumption_today
      - sensor.socket_7_ampere
      - sensor.socket_7_voltage
      - sensor.socket_7_wattage
      - sensor.socket_7_total_consumption

When clicking on the group I’m presented with:-

Dishwasher Statistics
Dishwasher Statistics606×736 30.4 KB

As you can see it has one switch for the group and another for the actual switch.kitchen_dishwasher.

And I’m trying to hide or remove the group switch (I think it’s the group switch).

The only options as far as I can work out are here.
