I have an issue with the bar cards since a recent update. The bars are shifted to the right.

Here is my code:

    - type: "custom:button-card"
      template: custom_card_bar_card
      variables:
        ulm_custom_card_bar_card_entity: sensor.disk_use_percent
        ulm_custom_card_bar_card_name: M2 drive
        ulm_custom_card_bar_card_value: false
        ulm_custom_card_bar_card_indicator: true
        ulm_custom_card_bar_card_color: "var(--google-blue)"
        ulm_custom_card_bar_card_min: 0
        ulm_custom_card_bar_card_max: 100

Can anyone possibly help and confirm if it is possibly to break up your view into segments?

I can trying to break out my chips separately into a ‘navigation’ yaml file, and then include that file. This would greatly help in reducing the code redundancy.

In, the below, I’ve coped the entire custom:mushroom-chips-card into a new navigation file, but can’t seem to the include to work correctly.

title: "Home"
path: "home"
cards:
  - type: horizontal-stack
    cards:
      #- !include navigation.yaml        
      - type: custom:mushroom-chips-card
        chips:
          - type: template
            icon: 'mdi:home'
            icon_color: 'blue'
            tap_action:
              action: navigate
              navigation_path: /ui-lovelace-minimalist/home
            
          - type: template    
            icon: 'mdi:sofa'
            icon_color: 'brown'
            tap_action:
              action: navigate
              navigation_path: /ui-lovelace-minimalist/family
            
          - type: template
            icon: 'mdi:silverware-fork-knife'
            icon_color: 'yellow'
            tap_action:
              action: navigate
              navigation_path: /ui-lovelace-minimalist/kitchen

How do you include/reference other files?

EDIT… NVM. It does work, I think I had typo somewhere, but not refreshing it does appear to work,

I’m using the minimalist-ios-tapbar theme and there is an offset relative to the bottom of the screen. I’ve tried to adjust a few of the parameters in card-mod-root-yaml, but I’m not able to move it down. Any suggestions on things to try?

It doesn’t seem like any of the changes I make under card-mod-root-yaml have any effect. I’ve reloaded themes, reloaded UI Minimalist YAML and restarted home assistant. Changes made to other theme variables are reflected.

So will this be updated at some point then to support current versions?

I am experimenting with different cards, etc, unsure if I did something or not within my setup. But anything I do within my minimalist template will not expand accros the full view of my browser?

I’m experiment with the gid layout, and I can get this go the full width of the screen?

views: 
  - title: "family"
    path: "family"
    cards:
     -  type: custom:layout-card
        layout_type: grid
        layout:
          grid-template-columns: 1fr 1fr 1fr 1fr 1fr
          grid-template-rows: auto
          grid-template-areas: |
            "header header header header header"
            "main . . . sidebar"
            "footer footer footer footer footer"
          
        cards:
          - type: entities
            entities:
              - entity: light.ceiling_fan_1
            title: "1"
            show_header_toggle: false
            view_layout:
              grid-area: header
          - type: entities
            entities:
              - entity: light.ceiling_fan_1
            title: "2"
            show_header_toggle: false
            view_layout:
              grid-area: footer
          - type: entities
            entities:
              - entity: light.ceiling_fan_1
            title: "3"
            show_header_toggle: false
            view_layout:
              grid-area: sidebar
          - type: entities
            entities:
              - light.ceiling_fan_1
              - light.ceiling_fan_1
              - light.ceiling_fan_1
            title: "4"
            show_header_toggle: false
            view_layout:
              grid-area: main

instead of using 1fr, you might wanna try using exact sizes in pixels if you’re using it on a specific screen

views:
  - title: DashBrew
    icon: mdi:home-assistant
    path: home
    type: custom:grid-layout
    layout:
      grid-template-columns: auto 1070px auto
      grid-template-rows: 400px 116px 270px 94px auto
      grid-template-areas: |

this is how i made it a few years ago on a 1080p wide screen, I know, very old skool but it still works perfectly

How can I change the theme colors?

I redid all the YAML for the themes and it just overwrote it after a restart, very very annoying.

Why isn’t /themes/ the source of truth here?

What is? where do I change this?

EDIT I just created another theme and merged the Noctis colors with the current theme.

I’m running the adaptive display on a pi 5. Has anyone get it to run smoothly? It seems like a bit of a dogs breakfast when it comes to speed. Sometimes its fine and sometimes to super slow. Entities updating is one thing I guess. But it also seems to just be slow sometimes.

Any tips?

I have some battery cards which used to work properly and now they don’t. What I do is to send a mobile app notification when double tapping the name of the card (using some TTS which I’m ignoring here for simplicity). Now when I double tap it it just gives me this error:

Failed to perform the action notify/mobile_app_phone_personal. not a valid value for dictionary value @ data['target']['entity_id']. Got ''

This is the simplified definition which also gives the same error:

type: custom:button-card
template: card_battery
entity: sensor.phone_personal_battery_level
variables:
  ulm_card_battery_charger_type_entity_id: sensor.phone_personal_battery_level
  ulm_card_battery_name: my phone
  ulm_name_double_tap_action: call-service
  ulm_name_double_tap_service: notify.mobile_app_phone_personal
  ulm_name_double_tap_service_data:
    message: lorem ipsum

Adding entity or entity_id within the service_data and/or within service_data/target/ doesn’t help.

I wonder if it has something to do with that HA update where now the services are called actions or not…

HA version: 2025.6.1
UILM version: v1.3.18
browsermod version: 2.4.0 (in case it matters)

Any idea?

~ EDIT ~
If I add this:

  ulm_name_double_tap_target: 'xxx'

the error changes to:

Failed to perform the action notify/mobile_app_phone_personal. not a valid value for dictionary value @ data['target']['entity_id']. Got 'xxx'

If I change it to this:

  ulm_name_double_tap_target: {},

the error is this:

Failed to perform the action notify/mobile_app_phone_personal. extra keys not allowed @ data['entity_id']

~ EDIT 2 ~
I was able to get it to work by using a script that calls the notify.*
I’m basically doing this for now:


  ulm_name_double_tap_action: call-service
  ulm_name_double_tap_service: script.phone_send_notification
  ulm_name_double_tap_target: {}
  ulm_name_double_tap_service_data:
    notify_svc: notify.mobile_app_phone_personal

Is there a way to create a drop down for an input select? I’m trying to find a decent way to do it but I just can’t find something that works. Any help appreciated.

KruseLuds · June 23, 2025, 1:26pm

When you show an Input Select in a dashboard, it is by it’s nature showing as a drop-down combobox. Did yoiu go into the settings and add multiple values for the dropdown choices?

Hello Sir,

I would love to know the code for the custom vaccum card.
thanks

I accidentally selected the “minimalist-tapbar” theme for my iOS app and now I have no access to my sidebar… is there a way to restore it without uninstalling and reinstalling the app?
