Any dark LCARS theme has the problem that it don’t show lines on a grid or table.
You can fix this with the “divider-color” to set in a light color for dark themes. Your default is “transparent”. For my themes I use the text-color to get a good contrast to the chosen background.
Then I have some bugs when the theme is not fully rendered. My “testsuite” is a Win10-Desktop-Firefox, Win10-Desktop-Chrome, an Android-Playstore-App (with Webviewer) and an Android-F-Droid-App (without Android Web Viewer).
Curiously sometimes the preview and then after save it shows the full theme, sometimes not a single card is rendered. I don’t know what I can contribute. As there are sometimes all renders right I enabled the theme right (even font, sound and effect)
transparent or black lines on grids and tables
Partially rendering with using a theme in user profile
All fine Preview (here remain the buttons to the chosen theme and are not overwritten by the cards theme. I expected also the red background of the Picard I theme)
Partially rendering for a dashboard full of single themed cards
If you are interested in further testing let me know.
Hi,
I’m pretty new to modifying the interface yet following the instructions here I’ve suceeded in getting the LCARS style interface to display on my installation I’m loving the amount of work that’s gone into this, and how good it’s looking - well done and thanks to all!
I have a question, given the low-level nature of this modification, I’m spending more time in the code editor sections of the UI, and I’m finding it really hard to read the light-grey text on white background:
Does anyone have any tips or suggestions to make this more legible? (Ideally darken the background for code) It’s kinda hampering my ability and enthusiasm to get into the code further…
You could try a different theme to see if the contrast is better, but I tend to switch back the default theme while editing then go back to whichever LCARS theme is your preference to check the result. Or, if you have the luxury of having 2 screens you could have HA open on both, with the default theme applied to the one used for editing and the other on the LCARS theme to see the result as it’s applied.
Hi, I really love it…thanks a lot for this great work…but i have al lot of problems with the Headers and Footes etc. since the update to 3.x. It seems that the styles are not loaded correctly. On my very cheap Android tablet the dashboardpage loads very slow an there everything looks fine. On my other much faster iPads, Iphone or or MacBook or in browsers the headers and footers and sometimes also other mods seem to randomly load correct or not. In most cases the Headers and Footers do not load correctly… any idea, what can cause this. Everything is up to date on my HA. Latest OS and Core andLCARS 3.1.0… It does not seem to be a problem with the YAML, because sometimes everything ist displayed correctly… but after the next page-refresh its wrong again.
I’m loving the amount of work that’s gone into this, and how good it’s looking - well done and thanks to all!
