- type: picture-elements
image: /local/someimage.jpg
elements:
- type: icon
icon: mdi:android
tap_action: toggle
entity: switch.androidtv
style:
top: 10%
left: 10%
- type: icon
icon: mdi:television
tap_action: toggle
entity: switch.lgtv
style:
top: 10%
left: 90%
You’ll have to play around with the style positions and add the image you want.
so i have add code.
I have uploaded all image in www/icons/media_icons/
add code in my ui-lovelace.yaml
- type: picture-elements
image: /local/icons/media_icons/LHarmonyBG.jpg
elements:
- type: icon
icon: mdi:android
tap_action: toggle
entity: switch.androidtv

top: 10%
left: 10%
- type: icon
icon: mdi:television
tap_action: toggle
entity: switch.lgtv
style:
top: 10%
left: 90%
and i got this error :

Do you have a file in that location?
When you specifiy /local/, that is refering to config/www directory.
So your folder structure should have a www folder inside the config folder.
Quick question, if you enable the home assistant skill in alexa, can you use alexa to turn off these “switches”
Yes, template switches act like a hardware switch:
This is my configuration for Harmony template switches (and a few others):

And in lovelace, I use a conditional card with a picture-glance card and a few entity cards. Here’s that config:

- switch.tv

state: 'on'
card:
type: entities
entities:
- entity: input_number.yamaha_receiver

- entity: input_number.yamaha_receiver_zone_2
name: Zone 2 Volume
- type: conditional
conditions:
- entity: switch.zone_1

- entity: switch.zone_2
state: 'off'
card:
type: entities
entities:
- entity: input_number.yamaha_receiver

- type: conditional
conditions:

state: 'off'
- entity: switch.zone_2
state: 'on'
card:
type: entities
entities:
- entity: input_number.yamaha_receiver_zone_2

And this is what it ends up looking like:
Powered Off
Xbox On
PlayStation On & Receiver Zone 2 On

ps: i love your interface for power switch
after i have try just
- type: entitites
title: Harmony
entities:
- switch.androidtv
- switch.lgtv
interface work but this part dont work i have card error in HA :
Your folder structure has the www, not the path you write in the image.
For example:
file location in home assistant OS:
config/www/icons/media_icons/LHarmonyBG.jpg
then your yaml would location would be:
image: /local/icons/media_icons/LHarmonyBG.jpg
spelling error
- type: entities
The errors are saying unknown card type.
Look at your spacing, it appears as if your elements are at the card indentation level. See how elements says ‘null’? null means empty.
work with :
- type: entities
title: Harmony Hub
entities:
- switch.sfrtv
- switch.androidtv
but is not lovely lol
again 100000x thank you for your precious help !!!
I would have hoped to have a more beautiful graphic with images of funds and at least I can play on the sound but shame
at least I can turn on and turn off the tv

Hi there,
I’m trying to implement template switches for my Harmony activities, but I’m having a bit of trouble. When I restarted HA after updating my config with the switches none of the new template switches appear as entities. I’m not getting any errors in the UI or the log about failure to setup switch.template or anything like that. Can anyone take a look at my config snippet and point me in the right direction? Note: I haven’t even tried to bring the switches into Lovelace, since the aren’t showing up as entities yet…
- platform: template

Thanks.
- Your indentation on each switch is wrong.
- You are capitalizing the object_id of the switch. If you want to name your switches, us the friendly_name attribute, that’s what it’s for.
- You also use a space in your object_id, that will cause yaml to mess up upon loading. Use underscores and lowercase for ALL object_ids.
- You have some extra spaces on all lines under the object_id. Generally, you want to keep 2 spaces per indent
example:
first_indent:
second_indent:
third_indent:
fourth_indent: Each indent is 2 spaces in from the other indents.
Take a look at the fixed Sling TV switch and apply the changes to the others:
- platform: template
