With the release of colored section backgrounds, I'm wondering if there's anyway to create conditions that decide which background color to set?
I just updated my HA to the latest version last night and haven't had a ton of time to explore, so I apologize if there's an obvious solution that I'm just overlooking... but the recently added ability to add background colors to entire sections is something I really like - I'm just wondering if there's anyway to automate the process or set the color based on certain conditions?
For instance I have a section with buttons for the locks around my house, and another section showing the status of all the window sensors around my home. Is there a way to say, after a certain time at night, if a window is left open, or a one of my locks is unlocked, the background of that section can turn red to just call more attention to the fact that I need to close a window, remember to lock the door, etc?
I'm slowly preparing to mount a tablet in my kitchen as a home control center, and being able to call out sections like that this where you can notice it from far away would be a big improvement to the functionality of what I'd like to setup.
Thanks!
