I observed that a sidebar’s width changes dependingly on cards - either in the “main” column or in the sidebar itself.
How does it work?
Is it possible to control it?
The only info provided in docs is:
The sidebar view has 2 columns, a wide one and a smaller one on the right.
Good question. I have just tried using the side bar view for the first time and I couldn’t get it to work at all. I was trying to use some custom cards so maybe that was the problem. I tried with the ha-floorplan card as main and a simple entities card in the side bar. I also tried with a picture elements card as main with a valetudo-map-card in the side bar. All that ever happened is they were stacked vertically and only a single column wide.
Anyone had any success with this? I was hoping to have the effect seen on the energy dashboard…
Thanks I had seen that (great work BTW) but I was just trying to work out how to use the standard sidebar view. If It actually doesn’t work as advertised and I have to use card-mod then I can do that.
It is a standard sidebar view, you only have to activate card-mod theme.
A width is set automatically dependingly on cards placed on a sidebar.
Played with different cards (entities, stacks etc) - the width is somehow is set dependingly on these cards’ widths.
So, card-mod allows to set a fixed width instead of automatical.
