Newbie: Power Switch should appear as a Lamp

Dear all!
I am brand new to the ovwerwhelming universe of HA.
Here is a particular thing I encounter (among SOOO many others):

I’ve got in a room a Tasmota Power Switch, a Hue light and s a thermometer/hygrometer. All well detected and integrated.

I added an “area card” to my dashboard. It automatically shows temp/hum and I can switch the light on and off and toggle the switch using this card.

But the attached to the switch is a light. When I want to switch on the “light” using this card I’d like to have switched on the power switch, too.

How can I achieve this? I have no clue and don’t find any hints.

Thanks, Uwe

Not entirely sure what you mean by this but if you want to change a switch to look like a light, click on the switch, then the cog icon in the top right comer of the card, then change the “show as” setting and save.

Thanks. SOOO easy. SOOO powerful. I just missed it.
