Pictures/Images as Tile Backgrounds

psyctto 7 years ago in Colors Icons Fonts Themes updated by Terry (ActionTiles) (Co-Founder) 5 years ago 11 1 duplicate

Searching around the internet for a more eye pleasing interface to SmartThings, I came across SmartTiles and further a custom dashboard created a few years ago. https://community.smartthings.com/t/my-custom-smarttiles-dashboard/48592

Looks like a nice feature that could add a nice look and feel to the project.  Usability would also improve greatly with nontechy folks that like eye candy and don't want the regular tiles approach.  I know this was previously done in the CSS, which is now gone, but an option to do so again would be great.

Sweet!! I am currently using a Qolsys IQ panel that the builder put in our house, and while I like the panel interface, I dislike how I have very little control over it. I am ready to use ST full time again, but I am wanting something more "pretty" for the screen interface. I truly this this would take ActionTiles to the next level.

As stated with my merged topic, having the option to choose custom images, instead of only icons, would give the users so much customization and the ability to turn AT into something even more amazing than it already is.

this would be a nice customization I second this request

Wow, love Action Tiles.  Just spend a couple hours playing with it. Thank you.


Feature Request:


Set image for each tile and for the entire background.  Opacity and a Darken overlay settings for each image.  I am willing to donate and extra $50 to you, if you can do this.  

Thanks for the donation offer, Maui ... but we're not a charity. ☺️
