The only dashboard I use is to change home modes, if needed manually. I have paddles that have double click capability, so I leverage that to change the 'mode' of a room. Even the inbuilt apps such as Motion Lighting have different override capabilities, but I get a little more sophisticated than that in a lot of cases.
As mentioned, Room Manager is spectacular for adding complex overrides. I love the Engaged and Asleep ideas, leveraging the above mentioned double tap paddles to toggle those, in my case.
TBH, however, overrides are rarely used in my house. The automation are setup and/or restricted based on mode and activity, which in general are tied to a time of day and works for all but the most edge cases.
