Some more potentially useful info

dJOS · December 2, 2025, 8:22pm

Add tiles using the attribute template, then in the attribute picker, select any of the attributes starting with html.

cznkane · December 2, 2025, 8:40pm

Really appreciate the help...I have no idea what adding a tile using the attribute template means or where there is an attribute picker etc. I'm brand new to SharpTools since ActionTiles barfed last month.

dJOS · December 2, 2025, 10:05pm

I don’t use the tools you mention. My tiles are designed for the original Hubitat dashboard.

Ah, gotcha, thank you for all the assistance!

dJOS · December 3, 2025, 1:50am

No worries.

I think I've fixed the issues with Airport locations, and I've added logic to remove info if the 1024 char limit is exceeded.

Release:
v7.3.2 - Only show 3day forecast size on tile when over 1000
v7.3.1 - Minor Bug fixes - public release
v7.3.0 - Bug fixes generated by Claude

Fixed a couple more things that were bugging me:

Release:
v7.3.4 - Moved ICAO airport code to display under suburb name instead of centered across columns
v7.3.3 - Replaced image-based sunrise/sunset icons with Unicode symbols to save ~300 characters

EDIT: apparently I dont know when to quit....
v7.3.5 - Added line break above "Now" section in 3-day forecast tile for better spacing

Out of curiosity, is there a possibility of getting a 5 day forecast (similar to the 3 day one currently available)? I did not see the separate fields available to build one (icon and short weather text) and just wondered if this is a limitation of the API or just not enough interest/requests. I think the Wunderground site itself has a 10 day. I am just looking to fill the dead space on my screen - so not urgent or important

Current Screensaver screen on Fully - 3Day forecast on a doublewide tile with increased font for ligibility

dJOS · January 15, 2026, 8:18pm

In theory, yes, in practice, no. The 3 day forecast barely fits in the 1024 HTML character limit imposed by Hubitat dashboards.

I could potentially make a second tile to cover days 4-6.

tray_e · January 15, 2026, 8:46pm

I had a feeling there was a limitation there. I could just add 4 and 5 as separate tiles individually. It doesn't look like the states for day 4 and 5 are there, or am I just missing them? (I see clouds and precip. Just not icon and weather)

dJOS · January 15, 2026, 10:48pm

I’ll have a look into it on the weekend and see what is there.

tray_e · January 15, 2026, 10:53pm

Take your time. This is most definitely not a rush (especially since I appear to be the only interested party)

dJOS · January 17, 2026, 11:54pm

and done, there is now an optional 6 day forecast tile for days 4-6.

Release:
v7.3.6 - Added 6-day forecast tile (days 4-6) with toggle option

EDIT: darn it, there's some sort of day overlap issue between day 3/4 that I didnt notice. Everything works, but .... The labels for days 4-6 are out by 1 day.
