Thanks for your reply! How do du make the ”Lights” writing to the left of the tile and “1 on” to the right? Do you make those tiles as dashboards?
I use super tiles for all of those.
Thanks for replying

Sharptools + Homey + Nest Hub/Chromecast = great setup
This took me way longer then it should (despite a lot of chatgtp help), but quite pleased with the outcome. My goal is to keep it clean and only show relevant info at the right time. Flows on the Homey Pro Hub control which dashboard to cast to the Nest Hub/TV, depending on the current situation. Only downside: Homey has to refresh the cast every 8 minutes, as the Nest Hub stops casting automatically. If anyone has a solution to this, I’d love to hear it!
Hi @Hasse, nice screens! I’m testing replacing my Google hubs with Android tablets for more customization options. But I see that you’re casting your own screens to the Hub. Cool! Can you interact with it, or is it cast / view only? In other words, on your first screenshot, do the music controls work? Is the casting done directly from your Homey hub?
Thanks @Wet.Blanket. Yes, the buttons do work! Only downside is that the casts need to be reloaded every 8 minutes and I can see the URL loading. However I make use of this to cycle through different dashboards, showing information like power consumption, weather forecasts, and more. When Homey detects a specific event, such as music starting to play, it triggers a flow that loads the URL to the corresponding SharpTools dashboard.
I mainly use this setup for notifications and information displays, and I can imagine that for a more comprehensive dashboard, a tablet would be more practical. .
I haven’t been active in a long time because was so happy with what I had going. But had some down time and started playing around today. Wow, the new custom tiles are amazing!!! Decided to do a full new setup and love it so far, of course will need to tinker with it more and see what other new features I’ve been missing out on.
(Don’t mind the wall it’s a chalk walk wall for the kiddo and just got erased)
How do you get that tile that tell you how many lights are on?
I posted a couple of years ago in this topic . Over the years it has evoled so, here is an update.
I got some inspiration from a recent post on tile css customization , so I decided to try it myself.
It has been fun to play w/ the CSS for a different look. I really enjoyed being able to finally make a supertile side panel that fit with this css method. Thanks again for everyone who posts ideas.
I’ve found ChatGpt to be really good at css and I use it alot for any troubleshooting as i’m new to css.
Hi all mounted with velcro onto blank outlet for that floating effect. Cool image weather widget from a tourism website Great posts thanks all
Nice job?
What are you using for your Tesla tiles?

Thank you so much… I just made a Super tile. I added the image and then each entry. I used “nth child” css method to make the charging text light up when it was charging. The data comes from homeassistant integration (pretty good, but can lag a minute or so sometimes). For the battery, I used the native guage.
Very elegant interface!
Hello everyone.
I’ve been playing around with SharpTools dashboards for awhile, but could really fall on a style/format. I wanted to keep the dashboards simple with a minimalist feel. After finding some insperation, here is what I came up with. I’m still finetuning some of the tiles, but the overall layout and style will stay the same.
Like some I prefer seeing as much info as possible on one screen. Our emphasis is on security. So, monitoring open devices, offline devices and low batteries is preferred. 95% percent of our actual switch control is voice based via Alexa. We use a Fire HD 10 Tablet and Android App. Open devices display red. Low Battery displays yellow and shakes. When all is good all is green.
