Frosted Glass 1.4
Version 1.4 brings Frosted Glass to more custom cards, improves glass dialogs, and gives the Dark variant a cleaner look, while keeping the familiar fonts, rounded corners, and spacing.
✨ New Features
- Native Bubble Card support. Bubble cards now get the Frosted Glass effect automatically, with matching buttons, sub-buttons, menus, and popups.
- Native Navbar Card support. Your navigation bar now blends into the theme with a transparent background, glass reflections, and blur in the Full version.
- Better support for custom cards. Improved styling for Mushroom, Room Summary, Hue-Like Light, Slider Button, and Simple Swipe cards helps more of your dashboard feel consistent.
💎 Improvements
- Glass dialogs and popups. Opening a light, weather card, or other entity now gives you a translucent, blurred dialog in the Full version, on desktop and mobile. Lite keeps dialogs solid for readability.
- A refreshed Dark palette. A deeper blue-black background and softer blue accents replace the gray and purple tones. Settings, menus, editors, and controls now follow the same palette.
- More consistent Light colors. System surfaces now better match the theme's warm off-white tones.
- Lighter sidebar and topbar. Full uses a subtle tint with blur. Lite now keeps both fully transparent, without blur. Sidebar styling also works outside the dashboard.
- More depth on cards and badges. The signature top-left and bottom-right reflections are sharper, with softer shadows that bring back the glass feel. Cards stay transparent in both Full and Lite.
- UIX support. You can now use UIX as an alternative to card-mod for the theme's styling.
🐛 Bug Fixes
- Fixed HACS dropdowns opening in the wrong place. Older HACS dialogs use a solid background to keep menus correctly positioned.
- Fixed missing glass reflections on dashboard cards and badges in the Full version.
- Fixed Navbar and Bubble cards falling back to solid backgrounds.
- Fixed unwanted backgrounds behind Heading cards, text-only Markdown, Mushroom titles, and chip containers. The documented manual transparency override works again.
- Fixed doubled glass effects in stacked and nested cards, while respecting cards that intentionally keep their own backgrounds.
- Fixed theme styles interfering with custom shadows, borders, and Mushroom artwork.
- Fixed sidebar tooltip positioning and inconsistent backgrounds when editing dashboards.
- Fixed standalone Light and Dark theme loading with Home Assistant 2026.8.
