@RomRider is it possible to have the border-radius templated like is possible with the card-mod? For example {{ states(‘input_select.border_radius’) }}?
In the input select I have the variables like 12px coded. This seems to work fine with card-mod but I can’t figure out how to do this with your card (if even possible).
I know I can just apply card-mod to your card but that makes it impossible to use it as a template with decluttering cards.
The reason is that I have a few cards that all use a single template but I also have a few that I don’t want a border-radius applied to or a different border-radius.
So I want to be able to have the option to either use the input_boolean to change the border-radius or the variable in decluttering card. (I hope you understand what I mean)
is there a difference between the style = height/width in the zone_image template, and the use of the
styles:
custom_fields:
zone_image:
width:
height:
I cant seem to pin it down completely, though it seems to show alright now, on smaller button cards (3 in 1row). If I have only 1 button, which is then much larger, the overlay (zone_image) doesnt enlarge proportionally
correct size for 3 in a row
incorrectly sized on larger button (seems even smaller):
can you help, by explain, i want to the same, but without zone sensor, i’m only using one entity which is the device tracker.
can you help with the code?
this is the entity device_tracker.b4_f1_da_ec_sd_sd
depends really, on what you want. If you want a button with the entity_picture of the device_tracker, the code is posted above. Just leave out the custom_field parts. and adjust a template to your setup.
If you need something else, you should be a bit more specific…
coming from @jimz011 s topic Homekit Infused (HKI) v2.0.0 Release Candidate (Beta 11) - Updated 31/05/2020 please let me ask if it is possible to have the button-card respect the entity-settings for icon-color already available in Ha.
If I use an entity, this is is displayed with the correct icon (if set in the backend already) without adding extra settings in the custom:button-card.
icon-color however seems not to be recognized?
eg this simple example:
sensor.cpu_temperature:
icon: mdi:thermometer
templates:
icon_color: >
if (state < 60) return 'green';
if (state < 65) return 'darkgreen';
if (state < 70) return 'orange';
if (state < 75) return 'crimson';
return 'firebrick';
using in a native entities card displayes as:
while the button-card:
- type: custom:button-card
entity: sensor.cpu_temperature
color: auto
shows:
I realize the color: auto setting is for following light colors, but it would be really very nice to have it follow the color settings on other entities also?
Looks like this is a custom-ui config. I’m not going to support that, sorry. You can reproduce the same thing with button-card’s config. custom-ui is not kept up to date anymore.
General question on when to use the decluttering card v the custom button card for templates. I’ve just spent a lot of time rewriting my views to make extensive use of the custom button card templates. I have templates for binary sensors, sensors, and input booleans. There are then a few variants that add a variety of other things (custom fields, for example, to show additional info, last changed, etc.).
In this thread, it seems folks like the decluttering card as the template instead. Are there advantages that I’m missing in using the decluttering card template over the button card template? Just trying to create best practices
you said that about my templating request also now see where we are…your card is one of the most templated cards.
and yes, icon-color is done with custom-ui. It is still fully functional for this, and hope HA/Lovelace won’t take this out, no reason why that should happen is there?
Well, guess I have to respect your thoughts about supporting it, or not. It is too bad though because we can’t really do that with button-cards, can we.
We can template an individual card, but with the customize-glob and that one template we can set icons and icon-colors for many entities at once, without having to configure that anywhere else. And use them in the Lovelace setup without further settings, as I’ve shown in that entities card.
Would have hoped when native HA cards use these settings from custom-ui, custom cards could do so too.
Maybe you’ll have a look at it at a later time. Anyways, thanks for considering.
True, you can template all the things, but now we have to deal with a lot of support about writing javascript templates
In this case, it’s not up to me. custom_ui modifies the DOM on the fly, this would require a fix on custom_ui’s side, nothing that I’m willing to do since it’s not kept up to date.
As you can see this is using custom_field after all:
which seems alright (except for the moon eyes…)
need some explaining though why I cant just center a text (text-align: center), and in this case need left: 30%…
Hope there’s a css guru around willing to help me out there, because this seems not to work
It looks like there’s a problem with the buttons on the new iPad OS. When you press a button it acts like a double tap. So a light goes on and off again. It’s probably because Safari on the new iPad OS loads pages as desktop pages. When i manually switch to mobile mode (in Safari) the problem is gone.
minute typo in the documentation under Action/service_data: description
If your service_data requires an entity_id, you can use the keyworD entity, this will actually call the service on the entity defined in the main configuration of this card. Useful for configuration templates
because of the link there to the configuration templates I have been looking but couldn’t find a refererence to that particular requirement. Ie, using the entity in the service_call in a template.
now see where we are…your card is one of the most templated cards.
