Max and pin attributes not working as expected

[andrey-git]

Could you paste your custom-ui related config here?

[mihalski]

In configuration.yaml:

homeassistant:
  customize_glob:
    light.*:
      custom_ui_state_card: custom_light
    cover.*:
      custom_ui_state_card: custom_cover

In customise.yaml:

    light.office:
      custom_ui_state_card: custom_light
      state_card_mode: break-slider
      stretch_slider: true
      # extra_data_template: "{power_consumption!=10}W"
      slider_theme:
        min: 1
        max: 255
        pin: true
        off_when_min: false
        report_when_not_changed: false

Now here is where I am a bit confused. The entity name doesn't match any entity and yet all the lights have taken on the new customised ui. Is this where I'm messing up?

[andrey-git]

All lights will take the customized ui from the

homeassistant:
  customize_glob:
    light.*:
      custom_ui_state_card: custom_light

part. (Which is matching all entities with ID starting from light.)
If light.office is not an actual ID it won't apply anywhere. If it is - the config seems fine.

[mihalski]

light.office is not an actual entity_id. Does this mean that the component defaults to pin: false and max: 100 ?

Also, does this mean that to apply this customisation to every light with the desired settings I have to duplicate the entire entry for each light?

[andrey-git]

pin defaults to false, but max defaults to 255.

If you want the same options for all your lights - just put them under the customize_glob: section:

homeassistant:
  customize_glob:
    light.*:
      custom_ui_state_card: custom_light
      state_card_mode: break-slider
      stretch_slider: true
      # extra_data_template: "{power_consumption!=10}W"
      slider_theme:
        min: 1
        max: 255
        pin: true
        off_when_min: false
        report_when_not_changed: false

[mihalski]

Ahh, so that's how I'd do that. Is it then also possible to then override per light in the customize section?

Weird that max is capping out for me at 100.

Just made the changes and everything is working great after a restart! Except for this oddity:

It's like the inverse of what was happening before. I can't really touch the light tonight since it's being used. Seems like HA is saying it's at 255 but the custom components slider read it back differently. I had another light on at full brightness and it read that back correctly.

Either way this tiny glitch doesn't concern me, I only mention it because it might indicate some sort of bug somewhere.

[andrey-git]

What platform is this light?

[mihalski]

LIFX. The new and improved version of the component.
