style templating of binary_sensor, state not matching

[idkpmiller]

Which version of Room Card? 1.08.04

Describe the bug A clear and concise description of what the bug is. Using the4 configuration guide as an example for the template styles. The example shows a switch entity, I would like to make some icon changes to a binary_sensor entity. I heve the following yaml, and the 'Windows' entity always falls through to the default outcome if no match is fouund for both color and iicon used. I have trid matches of the state as off, Off, OFF, closed, Closed and CLOSED None of these create a match.

To Reproduce

use the following yaml

  - entity: binary_sensor.office_windows
    icon:
      template:
        styles: >
          if (entity.state == 'off') return 'color: blue';  
          if (entity.state == 'on') return 'color: yellow';  
          else return 'color: white';
        icon: >
          if (entity.state == 'off') return 'mdi:window-closed';  
          if (entity.state == 'on') return 'mdi:window-open';  
          else return 'mdi:window-shutter-auto';
    show_icon: true
    name: Windows

Expected behavior When the windows grrop state is Open then the color of the icon should be yello and the icon displayed should be for window-open. When they are closed the icon should be blue and the icon should be window-closed. the white colow and the neither stae is always being displayed when the cuurrent state of the group entitiy is Closed or Open.
