The recent update of custom updater makes it show ā€œupdate availableā€ at every ha restart, but there is no update available.

custom_updater version 4.2.15

Does someone else have that issue with this version?

Does anyone else have performance problems with useful-markdown-card in HA 0.88.1?
I was using it a lot but in recent HA it started getting pretty sluggish. When I open tab with useful-markdown-cards my browser slows down and only refreshing on other tab brings it to full speed. Is it some kind of memory leak? Am I alone?

EDIT: Now I can see there was a huge update of useful-markdown-card 12 days ago. I have tried older version and problem is solved. Kindaā€¦ whatā€™s wrong with the new one? :confused:

Thanks for letting me know.

Iā€™ve pushed some new updates for useful-markdown-card and for card-tools that might fix this. Iā€™m not entirely sure what the problem is though and havenā€™t noticed any problems myself, so itā€™s pretty much hit or missā€¦

Thatā€™s a miss unfortunately. Going back to bac5502 and crossing my fingers. I would be very happy to share with you some data but donā€™t know where to start. Iā€™m using most recent Chrome and itā€™s happening both on the computer and on my android phone.

First step would be to check the browser log, and to absolutely without a doubt isolate the issue to useful-markdown-card, e.g. by having it happen in a view with only a UMC and nothing else.

For now I have isolated it to not happening with standard markdown card used in place of UMC. Also there are no errors in console log. But of course it may be happening because of other cards not working fine with UMC in one view (state-switch, card-modder, weather-card, custom-compact-header, layout-card). I will conduct a more in-depth analysis tomorrow.

Thanks! @thomasloven for the new popup config and the animation pointers.

Thank you kind sir. Works like a charm. Anyway you know of resizing the window to certain width and height?

Not as far as I know, no.

So no one has this issue, that custom updated says update available when restarting ha?

This thread is about my lovelace plugins. Find or create a thread about custom_updater.

There is nothing in browser debug log. I have also isolated issue to UMC as you suggested. Without nothing else in view the problem is still there (when using Ā± >10 cards). I guess it may have something to do with refreshing many sensors in UMC or even whole UMC cards (I donā€™t know how you handle this). In older version I can see some slowness but not that striking and it vanishes after a moment when I change view to one not having UMC (like the memory is cleared?). Hope you will find solution because this is great card.

Btw. new layout-card messed my frontendā€¦ also great card, but man, itā€™s scary to update :wink:

Iā€™ve tried using the popup card with the mini-graph-card (was hoping to make a pupup that is set to large). But this doesnt seem to work:

I made a global entry for my popup: (itā€™s under the resources).

popup_cards:
  sensor.hourly_gas_consumption:
    title: lamp
    card:
      type: entities
      entities:
        - light.livingroom_lights_eettafel

And my card in my panel:

   cards:
      - animate: true
        color_thresholds:
          - color: '#f39c12'
            value: 0.1
          - color: '#d35400'
            value: 0.2
          - color: '#c0392b'
            value: 0.5
        entities:
          - entity: sensor.hourly_gas_consumption
            name: Gasverbruik per uur
        height: 150
        hour24: true
        hours_to_show: 24
        line_color: '#f39c12'
        more_info: false
        name: Gasverbruik per uur
        points_per_hour: 1
        show:
          graph: bar
        type: 'custom:mini-graph-card'

But this sadly doesnā€™t work. It does work when i use it on a other entity that isnā€™t a entity in a mini graphp card.

Did you follow the suggested debugging actions in the readme and in the linked installation instructions?

layout-card has been updated!

Itā€™s now possible to have columns with different widths:

And with combinations of layout-cards and stacks you can make really nice things:

Perhaps @teachingbirds could provide some more examples?

Iā€™ve also released a companion card that works really well with layout-cardā€¦

gap-card

An empty, invisible card that does nothing. It just wastes space. And itā€™s potentially awesome!

Donā€™t worry. This thread hasnā€™t made me go crazy (yet). Just look at this:

And now the gap a bit larger, and with a nice background image, or perhaps in the center of a magic mirror setup?

Awesome! Now I donā€™t have to make up non-existent devices to display to adjust empty spaces :raised_hands: Much appreciated! Thank you!

Example of how to build a left hand menu and also a gap card instead of alarm next to the clock on the second tab.
