A board file for the Elecrow CrowPanel 7.0" (DIS08070H, ESP32-S3-WROOM-1-N4R8): 800x480 through mipi_rgb, GT911 on the
ESP32-S3's USB pins (elecrow_usb_phy.h frees them, behind a flag only this board sets), the Guition's vertical sizes
across a wider page, no rotation. Its 4 MB of flash take the CYD's budget: a partition table of the component's
(smart_display: partitions: 4mb_wide_slots, 1,984 KB slots), the icon fonts at 2 bits a pixel and the TLS client only
bring the firmware to 1,865,440 bytes, 91.8 % of a slot, with camera images kept. docs/ELECROW.md has the numbers and
the trade.
The add-on reads a large board's name from the type sensor's value, the editor offers the board under New screen and
draws the wide preview, tools/check.sh builds it with the budget, render_topbar and capture_ui take the panel's size.
Firmware 0.2.79; the CYD image is unchanged (1,633,760 bytes).
This fork builds from gittea.trippedonmy.name/Xandrossian/homeassistant_espscreen: the packages, the fonts, the
component and the add-on repository point there instead of GitHub.
Everything a user sees or reads is now English: both boards' labels,
status replies and logs, the ESP Screens editor and Alerts cheatsheet,
and the README and guides (docs/TILES.md, CALIBRATING.md, ACCEPTANCE.md
and TROUBLESHOOTING.md replace the Dutch file names). Labels follow
Home Assistant's own English names (Heat/Cool modes, Heating/Cooling
actions, Away, Returning to dock, weather conditions), dates use English
abbreviations and the top bar writes numbers the English way. Docs use
HA 2026.9's menu names (Settings -> Apps, App store, Settings -> Tools).
Unused legacy files (home-like.yaml, buttons.yaml, a.out) are removed.
Firmware 0.2.34 names its entities in English. Home Assistant registers
a renamed ESPHome entity under a new entity ID, so the inbox
text.<screen>_tegelinstellingen becomes text.<screen>_tile_settings and
the layout stored under the old ID would be lost. The manager now
recognises the screen by its device, during a run or after a restart,
and moves its layout and update history along; the Update button and
the nightly round follow the screen through the rename. Screens that
still run 0.2.33 or older keep working: both languages are matched.
Main is the only release branch from now on.
Tested on a Home Assistant Yellow (HA 2026.9.1) with both bench boards:
see docs/TEST_RESULTS_0240.md.

App 0.2.23 / firmware 0.2.19.
- Wide cards of climate, switch, light, fan, vacuum, cover, media_player,
number, select, timer, scene, script and button show Home Assistant style
controls on the right (keys, -/+ pill with debounced send, slider with
handle, toggle, run key); per-tile choice `options.controls` in the editor
with mockup preview; the add-on sends only the set a card really shows.
- Weather card: now + next hours and coming days with rain, from daily and
hourly forecasts; scenes/scripts/buttons show when they last ran.
- Climate card: power key, tap-to-toggle option, fan and swing rows in a
redesigned mode picker (grey backdrop, white chips, accent selection).
- Busy state as a spinner on a translucent sheet; render guards so only
changed styles reach LVGL; dark theme removed from the runtime code.
- supported_features above 1e6 reaches the screen; middle dot in text fonts;
18 control glyphs in the icon fonts; diagnostics services
preview_climate_picker and preview_busy; demo layout --controls.

The sync loop now wakes only for state changes of entities on a layout or
belonging to a screen. Registries refresh on HA registry events with a
10 minute fallback instead of every 30 s. The page polls a light inventory
(screens + update status) every 10 s and the full catalogues every 5 min or
when the tab becomes visible. The full keepalive interval is 120 s.

- screen_manager/app/tile_icons.py is the single icon list (12 groups, 20 media
and music icons); tools/generate_icons.py writes it into the three icon fonts
of both boards and builds the editor's subset font.
- Firmware 0.2.18 shows o.icon when its fonts carry the glyph, else the domain
icon. The app sends the chosen icon, or Home Assistant's own mdi icon on auto.
- Tile sheet gets an icon picker with search; the mockup shows the icon the
screen actually draws.

Firmware 0.2.16: the analog clock uses index strokes with 12/3/6/9
numerals on large cards and shows a calendar block (weekday, big day,
short month) beside the dial on single tiles; wide cards keep the digital
time and date. New palette key 'none' hides only the card fill and
border: geometry, padding and the pressed flash stay identical. Skeleton
frames and the render self-test honour the transparency.
App 0.2.15: 'Geen' in the background palette with a dashed mockup tile,
min_firmware 0.2.16 for such layouts, demo layout with the bare calendar
clock (--wide for the double-width clock). README and AGENTS note that
every push is a release and bumps the add-on version.

Firmware 0.2.15: trend graphs use a Catmull-Rom curve with a soft fill
drawn by the card's draw event; sun.sun gets a wide sun-path card with
horizon, arc and the sun at its current position; page switches show
the new page's card frames immediately and fill them from a one-shot
timer; the navigation is one full-width bar without a divider; the CYD
adopts the Guition light palette in styles and overlays.
App 0.2.13: pointer-based drag & drop (mouse and touch) to reorder tiles
in the mockup and to drop entities from the list, sticky save bar, a new
header with explained actions and a three-step guide, clearer firmware
dialog. New sun, weather and clock tiles start wide in their best view.

Any tile can now be double width: pack() in runtime_model.h places wide
tiles in the left column and the manager preview follows the same rules.
New cards: built-in clock (digital or analog, screen.clock), five-day
weather forecast on a wide weather card fed by weather.get_forecasts,
history sparkline for sensors, sunrise/sunset (sun.sun), live kitchen
timer (timer.*, tap starts or pauses) and presence (person.*). The
manager pre-computes time-zone and forecast extras in a new 'x' object
and refuses layouts with new domains until the screen runs 0.2.14.
The self-test follows the packing, checks custom card parts and wide
widths, and diagnostics/send_layout.py pushes a demo layout of every
card type for render checks without Home Assistant. App 0.2.12,
firmware 0.2.14.
