Camera selection always opens the same camera
Home Assistant OS
Core 2026.7.1
Supervisor 2026.06.2
Operating System 18.1

View Assist: 2026.6.0
VACA: 0.12.1
When opening the Camera page, the camera thumbnails are displayed correctly.
However, tapping any camera does not behave as expected.
Expected behaviour
Each camera thumbnail should be individually clickable.
Tapping a thumbnail should open the live stream for that specific camera.
Actual behaviour
The entire camera page behaves as though it is one large button.
Tapping anywhere on the page appears to trigger the same action.
Every thumbnail opens the same camera instead of the selected one.
If a camera entity is hardcoded into the dashboard YAML, the live stream works correctly, confirming the live view itself is functional.
Additional observations
Camera snapshots display correctly.
Live camera works in normal Home Assistant dashboards.
The issue only occurs within the View Assist Camera page.
Initially the live view showed Configuration Error. Hardcoding the camera entity removed that error, but every thumbnail still opens the same camera.
In the web version of View Assist, clicking anywhere on the camera page causes the entire page to highlight rather than the individual camera card, suggesting the parent card may be intercepting pointer events.?
