visibility conditions do not work

[jploonstra]

I like your card (a lot) better then the standard vertical stack card, but your card does not support the usage of:

visibility:
  - condition: state
    entity: "some entity"
    state: "Some State"

inside the embedded cards

I use the vertical stack for instance with my espresso maker, to only show most entities when the machine is on, and hide them when it's off

Hope you find a solution to this soon!

Hi,

Same for me here, visibility condition doesn't work with vertical-stack-in-card while it's ok with "basic" vertical stack card

[Kanecaine]

I use this card in the new section view. The visibility conditions and the layout options only work to a limited extent in this case: I can set both settings and they are applied, but as soon as I open the editor the next time, the settings are reset.

For example, the UI editor removes the following card settings:

grid_options:
  columns: full
  rows: 3
visibility:
  - condition: state
    entity: switch.test
    state: “on”

This means that these settings must be made again each time a change is made. Perhaps this behavior has the same cause as with the other users.

Same problem, my visibility entries disappear when I edit the card. Up to that point, the visibility setting is respected and works. Just don't edit the card again.... ;-) or be aware that with each change, the "visibility" has to be setup again.

A fix would be nice.

It would be really cool if someone could solve this problem. The function is really missing.

I helped myself by putting the vertical-stack-in-card into a Conditional Card. Not exactly elegant, but works.

Amazing resourcefulness! Thank you!

This fixes the problem for me too. Very grateful!

There is a second way to prevent visibility entries from disappearing. You can also use custom:mod-card. This has the advantage that it can be customized much better with car-mod.

The root cause seems to be the same as in #178 (config elements are discarded during load)

[Liquidmasl]

This issue has been fixed in the actively maintained fork: Liquidmasl/nested-lovelace-card.

The root cause was that the visual editor's setConfig patch only forwarded type, title, and cards to the hui-vertical-stack-card editor, silently stripping horizontal, styles, grid_options, visibility, and any other custom properties whenever you saved via the UI.

fixed a bunch of other issues mentioned here as well as well as added some QOL updates
