VIDEO: Customize your Activity Interface screens with Powerful Buttons

As I posted on the video, I hope someone uploads the icons you say are doing the rounds in Discord to somewhere for people who don’t use Discord.

If you mean the icon repository it’s a separate website: https://icons.rep.moe/

Thrillcat, firstly thanks for taking the time to put up these “how to” videos they are very much needed by we not so on to it adopters of the Remote 3( I am yet to receive my Remote 3) . I have to say though that your instructions are far too quick and the curser is flying about like a drunken Bee. Please don’t take this as a criticism, its just a comment from someone who really does appreciate that you have the time to help others. Cheers Phil out.

I appreciate that. My reasoning is that for a simple task, people are intimidated by longer videos - it makes the task seem much more difficult than it is. The videos can be paused, rewound, and YouTube even has a playback speed feature that allows you to play them at slower speeds.

Still waiting on my R3, late pledge. Are you using transparent web icons? I just know in the HA interface that it’s needed or you will have a “white/dark” background, whatever the non transparent web icons has. For example below is my dashboard using transparent web icons. If they weren’t transparent icons would have a circle or square behind the icons.

Second question, do the icons scale or do you need to download the correct pixel ratio for the grid? Thanks in advance.

Also, I have quite a bit of transparency web icons. If there is a particular place I could upload them too let me know and I would be more than happy to contribute.

I’m using png files with an alpha channel. The Remote requires custom icons to be 90x90 and scales automatically from there if needed.
