Sections dashboard: conditional cards occupying space about frontend

[piitaya]

Condition cards are not compatible yet with sections. It will come in the future, it's an the roadmap to improve the compatibility with existing cards.

Just for the sake of completeness wanted to attach a screenshot here. I have a lot of stacked conditions that I like to see at the top of the page for items that need attention. I have rebuilt my conditions in the UI. Below is a before vs after comparison.

@dshokouhi Are you using the latest version of HA (2024.3.1) ?

[piitaya]

Can you share the yaml code to reproduce it? 🙂

[dshokouhi]

@piitaya apologize I thought I was using conditional cards but apparently I misspoke and they are entity-filter type 😅

here is a sample YAML from the above screenshots: https://pastebin.com/0YycyXzF

let me know if you prefer I create a new issue for this

[piitaya]

No it's ok to keep this issue open 🙂 thank you

@Ali229 can you share the yaml code?

type: vertical-stack
cards:

• type: conditional
  conditions:
  • entity: sensor.washer
    state: 'on'
    card:
    type: custom:laundry-card
    entity: sensor.washer
• type: conditional
  conditions:
  • entity: binary_sensor.washer_error_state
    state: 'on'
    card:
    square: false
    columns: 2
    type: grid
    cards:
    • type: entity
      entity: binary_sensor.washer_error_state
      name: Error State
      icon: mdi:washing-machine-alert
    • type: entity
      entity: sensor.washer_error_message
      name: Error Msg
      icon: mdi:message-alert

Remove your vertical stack, it's not useful in sections. You can directly use conditional card in the section.

That's what it was thank you!
