✅ Overlay Pro Card — Release Notes (Faz.2.5)

✨ Added (Visual Editor UI)

This release introduces the Visual Editor UI for Overlay Pro Card — available for the first time.

🎉 Highlights

  • New Visual Editor UI

    • Configure the card entirely from the Home Assistant UI
    • No YAML required for daily usage
  • Full YAML feature parity

    • Every option available in YAML is now accessible through the Visual Editor
    • The Visual Editor writes clean, minimal config (no YAML spam)
  • Inline editing

    • Menu buttons and embedders can be edited inline using accordion-style panels
  • Smart defaults & auto indexing

    • New menu buttons and embedders automatically increment their IDs
  • Clean and consistent layout

    • Optimized spacing and alignment for better readability
    • Menu and Embedder settings now share a consistent visual structure

🧠 Design philosophy

  • YAML remains fully supported and untouched
  • Visual Editor is a first-class alternative, not a limited wrapper
  • No hidden state, no intermediate config models — the editor always writes real config keys

🚀 What this means

You can now:

  • Build complex overlays without writing YAML
  • Switch freely between Visual Editor and Raw YAML
  • Trust that the Visual Editor represents 100% of the card’s capabilities
