Hi there, thanks for pointing me to this card, it seems very interesting. Unfortunately i am having troubles having it working.

I have made a basic configu, which should work (basically it is based on the readme example):

Dashboard Configuration:

---
# This is actually just a bootstrap for my Lovelace configuration.
# It loads all resources for Lovelace dynamically from subfolders
# inside the `lovelace/resources` directory.
#
# Views are actually include one by one, this to guarentee the order of
# the tabs of the view in the UI.
#

        states:
          "on":

          - sensor.master_bedroom_bed_led_wi_fi_rssi
          - sensor.master_bedroom_bed_led_wi_fi_signal
      - break

The light is on an off status but doesn't seems to be the problem:

A few things to note, I can't use type: q-card, it returns that the card doesn't exists, I have used custom:q-card

If I load the card by itself, it "works", kind of... Meaning that the whole page become that card..

I hope I have provided enough information, if not please let me know.

Thanks! Andrea

Try q_cards not q-cards (which yaml interprets as q minus cards).

[SeLLeRoNe]

Nope

Custom element doesn't exist: q_card.
type: 'custom:q_card'
card: card1

Tried with and without custom and with and without quotes, same issue

[SeLLeRoNe]

Oh.. you meant in the dashboard.. testing!
