I created several entities by 'home-assistant-variables' repository (https://github.com/snarky-snark/home-assistant-variables). These entities automatically get 'var.' as prefix. But it seems that for some reason entities starting with 'var.' are not able to be shown on this card. I can't find why they don't show.

Anyone a clue how to fix? Just found same issue for input_numbers.xxx

It seems it's not the type of entity, but the number that limits. If I move this entity to another position it's shown in the other position. But if I then move the entity from the other position to the 'problem location' it will not be shown. Then if I change the entity in the position that is not shown to an entity I already used in another position it shows the value. So it looks like the limit is in a maximum of entities to show? This despite the manual saying there is no limit. Or do I miss something?

Spent some time today to remove all ballast and make the simplest horseshoe possible with 3 entities. In the original order it didn't show the third entity. When I just changed the entity on the second end third position it showed them all.
Strange, but when applying this logic to a card with 6 entities it doesn't work.

Got it sorted now. You have to shuffle around the entities till it works. For some reason the order of the entities defines visibility. I don't know why and how, but it makes a difference. Now I have all 8 entities visible, but if I change the order some disappear....
Any way, my card is complete and working now.
