Why is this tab hidden? (live condition check)

The visual editor checks every tab's conditions against your live Home Assistant state, so you don't have to guess why a tab isn't showing.

What you get

• Status chips under each tab's header in the tab list:
  • Hidden now: the tab's visibility conditions aren't met, so it isn't on the dashboard right now.
  • Alerting: the tab's alert conditions are met, so it's pulsing.
• Each condition section (Visibility, Alert, Default when) has a dot in its title (green = met, grey = not met). Open it to see a breakdown with ✅ / ❌ for every condition, including nested and / or / not groups:
  • state and numeric_state show the entity's current value, e.g. (now: off).
  • A misspelt or removed entity shows entity not found.
  • template conditions are rendered live by Home Assistant. They show waiting for Home Assistant until the first result arrives.
• Everything updates as states change, and the editor only redraws when a result actually changes.

No configuration is needed. While editing the dashboard, the card itself also shows hidden tabs (see Edit mode helpers).
