I have created a lot of my cards with the custom:stack-in-card. But it looks like, that the card is not working correct since months. I have isses with card mod and other things are visualized incorrectly. It also looks like, that there is no futher developement on the card and therefore I am looking for a replacement.
I play around with sections and it looks good, but I did not find a way to remove the borders of the cards.
The “Fahrzeugübersicht” is a markdown card and I have implemted the connectivity status of the car with the WLAN icon. It is possible and looks good, but it is not really easy and difficult to maintain. I also want to implement the other icons (Motor aus, battery status, etc.) borderless into the “Fahrzeugübersicht” but really not funny with maktdown.
Does anybody has an idea, how to do this? I would prefer to realize this with HA build-in resources.
Have you tried a theme where card background and general background are the same colour? Alternatively, you can make the card background and border transparent.
I am on 3.5.0.
here is an example of the card stack which is not working correctly. You shouldn´t see any borders and the icons of “Vorgarten” and “Garten” will rotate is you switch them on or off.
I seem to recall that mine “broke” too a while ago, but because something changed with using card-mod with stack-in-card. This is the code I have to turn the border off for one of them:
I’m totally confused and think I’m obviously too old for this stuff because I can’t follow the logic behind it! It may have reasons and I think it’s somewhere in the fine print, but for me, 3.44 < than 3.5 and therefore I’ve never thought about an update. But I’ve done that now and the errors are gone! Thank you very much for this crucial hint I would never have thought of that!
Please do not worry, it happened because 3.5.0 was released but then was rejected by the author due to errors. So, 3,4.4 is the latest.
As for “replacement for stack-in-card”. Some people use “vertical-stack-in-card”, but personally me using stack-in-card. Both cards have issues. I managed to fix (more or less) issues by card-mod.
there is no need for any of these custom stack cards at all
you can do anything with the stock entities card and / or vertical/horizontal stack
only ‘requirement’ is you download the very useful custom: hui-element which lets you put any card inside the entities card
(you can even leave that out and use a hidden trick by pre and suffixing a regular card, but the hui-element card is safer)
type: entities
title: Entities inside entities
entities:
- type: custom:hui-entities-card
title: This is the hacked card
entities:
- sun.sun
- type: custom:hui-element
title: This is the custm card
card_type: entities
entities:
- sun.sun
styling can be done inside themes (set a ha-card-border-width: 0px and your border issues are gone forever). Card gaps can be easily set using card-mod, which you already have.
the huge advantage of this, is those stock cards will never expire, and are maintained 100%.
