    Without any details, the only thing I can say is, that there seems to be a problem in the logic of how you determine the style for these card layouts.

    Using the "Insert Code" function makes that much more readable.

    This snippet seems suspicious. Any selection makes that field style "ACCENT".

    style: if(
      a!isNotNullOrEmpty(local!select),
      "ACCENT",
      if(
        and(
          index(local!dates,fv!item, " ") = day(today()),
          local!month = month(today()),
          local!year = year(today())
        ),
        "SUCCESS",
        "NONE"
      )
    )
