Is there a predictable way to add a object (with object I mean button, text, gauge etc) to a existing dashboard group without having the new object put random between existing objects.
I have dashboard groups with 40+ objects and adding one object to that group is messing up the complete design.
The new object is usually placed random (?) between existing objects
Is there a way to put a new object always at a new last row of the group without disturbing the existing layout?
Or do I have to use smaller groups?
Just give new items a proper name and move them to wherever you'd like them to be in this group. It might look messy after a new deploy, but it's a really easy fix. This can be done here:
Below Tabs & Links you can easily arrange everything as needed.
Sorry, but I know where it has to be done.
That's not my problem.
All other objects must manual moved back to where they were, individual.
That's not what I call an easy fix an easy fix.
I see. If I manually move a new item to the end of a group`s list, at least all former items are shown again just as before adding the new item. I then decide how to rearrange the group as a whole.
for example 15 rows with each 6 buttons
Aew button is randomly placed say on row 2 at position 5, all other buttons move and will not move back at the old place after I move the new button to the bottom row.
And the complete group is a mess
Mh. I have been doing it exactly this way. Just to be sure 
... don't forget to deploy after making changes in dashboard item order.
Are you using a non-standard widget size?
Or have you go some custom css active?
CSS template nodes disabled (very simple color changes), no change in behavior
widget size 45 x 35
widget spacing 6 x 6
Can you select all the button nodes and export them and paste here, then we can see if we can replicate the issue.
I presume you are using the latest version of the dashboard.
Problem is that the nodes from 1 group are spread over several flows, I only can copy one flow at a time.
But here are the nodes from the flow with the most dashboard nodes.
But I have already take the plunge and added the new nodes and rearranged the layout afterwards.
Hoping that we now have all the zigbee bulbs we need.
