New to then community. Was sold on Action Tiles until I stumbled upon a YouTube video from Simply Smart 123 about SharpTools. I’m a big fan of it and would like to share the dashboards I have created.
! ! !
I liked the layout and the color theme. Nice dashboards!

Great job Wendy. I love the lighting background choice! And I have to try getting my Harmony setup as tiles. Are you using ST for that?

@Aaron_Drysdale Thanks for the comment and yes I did use SmartThings to bring my harmony activities into Sharptools.

@Wendy_Reed Stunning! Love seeing dashboards that make me rethink some of my decisions. What devices are you using these on? As in, wall mounted tablets? Size? Really nice work.

@Ricky_Turner Many thinks for the comments!
I use those dashboards on both a iPad Mini & Fire Tablet 7 (I don’t have either mounted yet).

How did you get that calendar on there
Thank you
How did you get the calendar
Installed SharpTools last night and been tinkering with the dashboard for a lounge wall mounted fire tablet. This is the layout so far but very much a work in progress.
Does anyone know if there’s a way to get the album art to reset once the music stops? Otherwise it ends up showing whatever my daughter has been listening too until I can get into the lounge to play something decent! Ideally i’d like it to reset after each track.

Nice job, @Joshua_Cormican!
It depends on the device. If the device keeps reporting album art metadata to SharpTools, then the artwork will keep being displayed.
I could have sworn one of the music devices we tested would clear out the metadata when you explicitly ‘stopped’ playback, but we just tested on Sonos and Echo Speaks and they both seem to keep the metadata (and thus the artwork). At some point they do clear themselves out, but I’m not sure what the trigger for that is on each device.
Thanks 
not a big problem just would be cool, I’ll just have to find a rule to play something with cool album art after ever request from my daughter hahaha

FYI i’ve asked the EchoSpeaks dev over on the Hubitat forum about the option to auto flush last track data.

On the big screen for the wife while I’m away. Pretty slick cause you can tell Alexa to open an app called Bookmarker 2, and she pops the dashboard right open on a 4k FireStick. Bookmarker 1 is my blue iris UI3 feed. Digging it.

that is a really slick looking screen too. What tablet is that? Or maybe your phone takes super awesome pics 
Thanks for the comments.Its a new Huawei Mediapad T5 10 Inch
I looked at fire tabs but this is not really much more and runs normal android so no issues with kiosk and a really nice screen.
