I’m looking for a minimalistic layout to control and see the status of blinds in the overview dashboard.
I am currently using the entity card and it works but the downside is that it doesn’t show the current blind status. I could add a blind status entity but then the card becomes a lot taller. I wanted to see if anyone has any good layouts for their blinds that doesn’t take up too much space and allows them to easily control and see their status (ie. open %).
Pretty much what I want is something that is like what is shown below but with like a 2nd line that shows what the current open % is.

Yeah, I just set it to the default blinds option, but it’s all automated, so I never touch it.
I open/close my blinds based on what I’m doing and not the time of day. Usually I leave the blinds open for the cats unless I am doing something specific in an area where the glare is too much and annoying.
I just use a tile card. Simple, but great!
- type: horizontal-stack cards: - type: tile entity: cover.wohnzimmer_rollo_links features: - type: "cover-open-close" - type: "cover-position" - type: tile entity: cover.wohnzimmer_rollo_rechts features: - type: "cover-open-close" - type: "cover-position"Hmmm I guess I could try placing them side by side. Will try it after work. Thanks!
Welcomes! Btw: If you want to make it even slimmer, you can also remove features. Or you add some if wanted (like tilting, if your cover supports it).
Oh interesting. I didn’t realize I can just use Tile. Thanks!
I automate my blinds based off their position, the sun position, and the forecasted high temperature for the day. (And the TV if there’s on in the room). So I pretty much never use the UI.
But I usually just use the popup UI if I need to make a one off change.
