I ask because I keep seeing people’s dashboards that have the type of area/room card/tile that I’d like on my dashboard but I’ve explored the included cards/tiles as well as have Mushroom installed and I still don’t seem to be able to click my way to something like what I see. The fact that there are so many similar dashboards tells me that a lot of people have similar custom-coded dashboards or there’s something simple that’s baked in that I’m missing.
For reference, here’s a few samples of what I’m talking about:
To spell out what, specifically, I’m looking for: a card that allows me to have each room name, temp & humidity, a corresponding icon as well as 2-3 little toggles that I can customize with things like maps, fans, etc. for that particular room. Then, a single tap takes me to that room’s subpage for more devices to manage.
What I have currently looks like this:
(Note: there’s a bunch of stuff above that but this is the section in question for simplicity)
I like how the above images show two rooms per row, and then each one is equal-ish height to allow more space for info & toggles. I’m just trying to get mine (mushroom cards currently, I think) to look & act more like the ones I posted above.
I tried a horizontal stack with the default “Area” card but the ability to add device toggles & current temp/humidity readings to the card were lacking. I tried to use the “horizontal” option and then select areas but it was mashing things up a bit much in terms of the icon being dead center and laying over the top of other aspects.
So is the only way to achieve these same basic ideas (I don’t need exactly like these in terms of fonts, themes or curved corners or anything like that) to custom code or is there a UI version of these or way to modify the UI options to get similar results, hence why I’m seeing so many of these?
