max_width is ignored

See original GitHub issue

After trying for so long I give up and ask for help.

Somehow, I can’t get max-width working in my config: I get columns with the same width. I’ve copied someone’s config that’s been know to be working (I saw his screens), it is the following:

id: roomsalt
panel: true
path: roomsalt
title: Rooms alt
cards:
  - type: custom:layout-card
    layout: vertical
    column_num: 2
    max_width: [40%, 60%]
    cards:
      - type: entity-button  # Header Card - 40% column
        entity: light.hg_bed
        name: test-label-1
        show_icon: false
        show_label: false
        show_name: true
      - type: horizontal-stack
        cards:
          - type: custom:button-card
            template: header
            label: test-label-1
            entity: light.hg_bed
          - type: custom:button-card
            template: header
            label: test-label-1
            entity: light.hg_bed
      - break
      - type: entity-button # Header Card - 60% column
        entity: light.hg_bed
        name: test-label-2
        show_icon: false
        show_label: false
        show_name: true
      - type: horizontal-stack
        cards:
          - type: custom:button-card
            template: header
            label: test-label-2
            entity: light.hg_bed
          - type: custom:button-card
            template: header
            label: test-label-2
            entity: light.hg_bed
          - type: custom:button-card
            template: header
            entity: light.hg_bed

And somehow, I get 33% for every column width …

I’m running home assistant 0.94.3, I tried getting back to 0.93 but the issue remains.

-> Would anyone have a clue about how to fix this ?

@Gandohr Thank you for showing me that my config was correct. I was able to get it to work by enabling panel mode. From the instructions, it only hints that with panel mode it works better, not that it is mandatory for it to work! I wanted for the columns to be centered and not to fill the whole screen but using this custom card is still much better than trying to guess where lovelace will put the cards!

Should be fixed in latest version. The entire configuration is a bit changed, so using max_width shouldn’t even be necessary.
