Dashboard Theming (Custom CSS) and Mounting Hardware Ideas

Thanks for the mini-review and sharing the Panels you’ve built with ActionTiles, Zachary!

We totally hear all the folks that miss “custom CSS” and are steadily working on an update to the app which lays a foundation for more customizability. ActionTiles was re-architected from scratch to deliver lots more performance and functionality; but to get to release, we held back on flexibility in quite a few ways.

Since the March release, though, we have put out major features like PIN Protected Tiles, multiple Tile Sizes, icon selection, Garage Door support, etc., etc…

We want to keep “continuously improving” the AT platform, right along with SmartThings!

@625alex just tossed his latest innovations over to me for some QA testing, and I’m super stoked at the opportunities this will open up in future releases for ActionTiles customers.

One key characteristic of a Tileset is that they always start on a “new row”.

  • To avoid blank areas to the right side, you must combine Tiles into the same Tileset
  • To manipulate where Tiles are placed, you can insert and arrange Blank Tiles within a Tileset.

The nature of ActionTiles Panels is that they respond to screen size and orientation automatically, which is somewhat at odds with a “drag and drop” on a fixed-size grid. But that’s not an uncommon request, so … who knows, there may be a way for us to layer a drag and drop configuration UI onto the current layout configuration UI… someday.

We encourage everyone to visit and give feedback and track Feature Requests at ActionTiles Forum / AT Support & Ideas
