Increase card size

hello

i am setting up a dashboard for my nest hub, and would like to increase the size of the thermostat card to fill the screen. is there any way to do that?

cheers

Set it as a panel.

wdym as a panel

i thought panel card only works if you have a single card in the dashboard. i set this in the tabbed-card and get an error stating Unknown type encountered: panel

- card:
    type: panel
    cards:
      - type: thermostat
        entity: climate.thermostat
  attributes:
    label: Thermostat

So you want other cards, but you want thermostat to fill the screen? Where are the other cards going to fit then?

sorry, i meant fill the blank area in the screen

The whole intention is not clear. Post the whole card then.
Assume there is a tabbed card - the 1st tab is a thermostat, other tabs keep other cards.
If you need the whole tabbed card to occupy the screen area - define “type: panel” for the view, the tabbed card should be the only card. Then the thermostat will also occupy the whole sceeen - as well as cards on other tabs.
But you cannot define a panel-view-like for one tab only (unless you use a custom layout-card which may allow you to mimic different types of a view).

Everything is written above is for a case w/o any other cards except tabbed-card.
But here you also have some kind of vertical stack.
So, your goal MAY be achieved by:

  1. Set a panel type for the view.
  2. Add the only card on a view - horizontal stack.
  3. Place your vertical stack inside the horizontal stack as the 1st card.
  4. Place your tabbed card inside the horizontal stack as the 2nd card.

i just want to increase the size of the thermostat card to fill the remainder of the screen on the nest, essentially fill the rest of the screenshot i attached in the op. i do not want it to fill the whole nest screen size.
