Light Entity Card

Hi!

I’m having a similar issue. I also have a working input_select. However, when I try to use it via this card it triggers the light on command and not at all the input_select options. I can see this from the logs as an error/warning “light already on”.

Any help is much appreciated.

@Foguli I created a separate entity which works perfect

      - type: entities
        entities:
          - entity: input_select.albin_rgbw
        title: Ljuseffekt
        state_color: false

Thanks! That works much better than just an entity card. I’d still like to get the embedded effect list to work someday…

I have the exact same issue, did you figure out how to get a color wheel with consolidate option true?

Sadly no, I still haven’t found a solution for this.

Another heads-up from other thread that could affect this: Controlling Fibaro RGBW via REST API

On the android app i have to tap to select color. is there any way to enable holding down my finger and letting HA update the colors on the fly?

it gets a bit tedious when i wana select the colors all the way at the edges, but i keep pressing just outside the circle.

would be nice if i could press in the middle then drag to the desired color.

I’m having the same issue. Did you get this fixed?

Anyone else having the issue with this card where config.yaml defined light groups no longer show controls like brightness, color, etc? All I can do in my interface is toggle the switch on and off, but I get no controls in lovelace for brightness or anything else. The brightness controls show up in the entities themselves, but not in this card.

EDIT: Looks like it’s the same issue everyone else is having re: consolidated entities…

Good afternoon, there are no such problems.
but the lack of an icon and a different font throws me off balance. How can this be corrected?

code:

type: entities
entities:
  - entity: sensor.gateway_uptime
  - entity: switch.gateway_join
  - type: 'custom:light-entity-card'
    entity: light.gateway_led
    shorten_cards: true
    brightness: true
    color_temp: true
    white_value: false
    color_picker: true
    smooth_color_wheel: false
    hide_header: false
    child_card: true
    show_slider_percent: true
    full_width_sliders: true
    brightness_icon: weather-sunny
    white_icon: file-word-box
    temperature_icon: thermometer
    effects_list: false
    group: false
title: SLS Gateway
show_header_toggle: false

I thing there is an error in the HA. i always used the original RGB card with my Athom RGBWW. since a few days the card works not fine. the color temp doesnt work. changing from white to any color by tapping in the colorwheel does nothing. of course this i went to this RGB card.

I noticed the same issue and was bummed. I like this card, because I can hide everything and JUST have a brightness slider under a larger “button”. It works well in a dashboard setup. Hoping this gets fixed in a future update. It used to work great with light groups.

Got the card working, looks great!
Just wondering is there a setting in HA or the card when using the slider to update while moving?
Currently it only sends a change on commit or release of the slider.
Just feels clunky having to release the slider for an update/change in intensity to occur.
Sorry if this is not a card related question and is a HA specific question.

Looks like the wheel is gone after 21.7.x HA upgrade :frowning:

which version of light entitiy card have you installed? new ist 4.4.0
i will test it.

I cant find any problems.
i am now on core 2021.7.1 before updatet it,

  • came from 2021.6.6
  • updated the Light Card from 4.3.0 to 4.4.0
  • restart HA
  • updated core 2021.6.6 to 2021.7.1

for me it works all well.

Same her, but only on desktop and tablet. Phone is running :face_with_raised_eyebrow:

I have a problem with the color wheel showing as well. This happens with WLED devices. I have a Shelly controller that does display the color wheel ok, so my assumption is something changed in a recent WLED update (WLED is version 13, Light Entity Card is 4.4)

The color wheel doesn’t work for me either. Is it possible to add preset support?
Card version is 4.4
Wled version is 0.13.0

The newest version added support for the new color_modes attribute as a fallback. I’m seeing WLED entities that still use the old supported_features attribute (which is fine) but that value does not add up to say it supports color wheel. supported_features & 16 is the operation to see if your entity supports color wheel. If this returns zero then according to HA, that entity does not support color wheel.
