Here is my stack of cards , various, buttons, entities, number-box and more.
The problem is that using a mobile phone interface it is easy (we find!) to inadvertently change a value, turn something on/off, and more. What we need is some kind of “lock” on the cards.
Perhaps…Is there a way I could implement a “lock/unlock” mechanism where when I display these they are all locked/read-only, then when I click a ‘unlock’’ button the items become editable.
Or some other way ?
All card actions support confirmation option.
That won’t work for every kind of UI control, but maybe it’s enough for your purposes.
custom:restriction-card
Thankyou but didn’t work…possibly because they are unsupported cards (custom)
oh I love this forum…
thank you
(would be nice to fade the card when blocked - maybe I can use card-mod which is installed but not idea how I would do that - but thanks anyway)
For such things, I change the button to the hold actions and none for the tap action.
What is “fade”? Special background when locked? It is possible, check docs.
Yes.
But, docs refer to theme or card-mod.
I not know how to use these.
Examples not understood
Themes are a stock thing.
Also, there is a special option to define variables w/o using card-mod/themes.
yes but as I say, example but understand so I do but know how to do this
Suggest to ask in the main restriction-card thread, find it in “share your project”.
