Allow any MD icons

jonnywrightSuggested this wish ·

What would you like to add

Allow users to set any Material Design icon on Tiles shown on the screen.

Users have a limited selection of icons to use on Tiles. The default is Automatic (from Home Assistant). If the icon in Home Assistant isn't in the limited list in Tessera, it reverts to the entity type default (e.g. I have a sensor with mdi:star-circle as the icon in HA, but as this isn't one of the options in Tessera, it defaults to the default icon for sensors, mdi:eye).

If users were able to set any MD icon it would solve the above issue, and also allow users more customisation of their Tiles.

I have tried editing and uploading a modified JSON layout, but this didn't work for me.

How this relates to Home Assistant

Changing the icon in Tessera should not change the icon in HA, but override the current HA icon for the screen only (i.e. the same as the current behaviour, just with more options for the user).

Presumed this might have something to do with it. I'd consider this a low priority feat req

Maybe this could be made available as a plugin for devices with a lot of storage?
