Post your code here.

As I mentioned this is the default aera card. But here we go, this is the code:

alert_classes:
  - window
  - door
  - motion
  - smoke
sensor_classes: []
type: area
area: wohnzimmer
show_camera: false
layout_options:
  grid_columns: 4
  grid_rows: 3

I am not an expert, but I think you can play with alert_classes and sensor_classes
Area card - Home Assistant (home-assistant.io)
Try to use picture card
Picture card - Home Assistant (home-assistant.io)

Alert a Sensor classes are in the left upper corner. I like the Area card really since it is easy to use with yaml configuration. But it shows me all switches or light which are assigned to the area.

I just seen that the values does not been updates. Means the temperature in the garden changed but not on the area card.

@all this is not a solution. need to can deactivate the area button… I’m new in smart home and I deactivated accidentally for more hours essential services like fridge, water to dogs, a network controlling 5 sites in all Europe! Possible cannot be modified the code somewhere to deactivate that button???

Have been looking for a solution to this as well, the card doesn’t seem to support disabling the switch button.

I ended up hiding the respective switch entities, then the control is not shown, or, if other switch entities in the area are still visible, the hidden ones are not controlled by the switch button.

You can still show and use hidden entities explicitly, they are just not shown indirectly via areas etc.

Handling the light button should be similar.

I was looking for a solution here as well. I have a switch that is for a treadmill and I don’t want to accidentally switch off the treadmill while someone is active on it.
The fix I found was to remove the area assingment from the device. I include the name of the area in my device names anyway, so I already have that information baked in.

I also would like this feature. The risk to accidentally turn off the fridge is high (I use a smart plug for energy monitoring and never want to turn it off).

Hi

to remove switch in area card you can use card-mod and edit your card in YAML and put this code:

card_mod:
      style: 
        .: |
          :host {
            ha-icon-button:nth-child(2) {display: none}
          }

you can change the value “2” for select the switch you want to remove :slight_smile:
