Custom Tile and Overlay

  1. Is there a way to load a custom tile in an overlay?

I recently reworked my Tesla dashboard using the new Tessie Hubitat app. When I click on an image of my car, I want to load up an overlay of a custom tile showing the map location.

  1. Is there a way to adjust the size of the overlay window?

I’m using a dynamic map from Windy.com, from which I created a custom tile. When I load it up in an overlay, the bottom part of the slider is truncated. Is there a way to resize the window to allow it to show?

You can open other dashboards as an overlay. So you could put any tile type in a dashboard and open that as an overlay.

You can adjust the width of the overlay. And you can use different dimensions for your custom tile within the overlay dashboard.

Would need more detail on the truncated window. Not sure how or why it’s truncated or how you have the Custom Tile setup…

Thank you so much for the quick reply, Josh.

The option to be able to open other dashboards as an overlay worked beautifully.

I was opening the Windy dynamic map as a hyperlink, so there wasn’t an option to be able to set the width as 80%. Therefore, the map was cut off at the bottom. I ended up creating a dashboard with the embeded dynamic map and use your method to open it as a dashboard. Now, it looks and works wonderfully.

Thank you again for all your help.
