Hi, Genie.
Just installed new r.520 and was surprised by the new behaviour of displaying information on widgets (loop through different parameters). In my humble opinion it's inconvenient for sensors with a lot of parameters like temperature, luminance, move detection and so on as you have to wait a lot of time to see the value of certain parameter. I think the dashboard should be as more informative as it's possible, so you can read all information from one sight.
What do you think?
-
An expand button could be added to switch the layout from compact to expanded.
For instance the new camera widget has an expand button.
-
Expand button would be nice as some settings to show widgets in the 'expanded' mode by default.
Unfortunately I don't have a camera, so I can't try new camera widget.
-
Yes you can from the widget editor, just pick any module to bound and then run it.
-
forgot to mention that currently you can also click over it to toggle all parameters rapidly.
-
Yes, I found the 'click-to-switch' feature.
And also just tried the new camera widget in Widget Editor.
Also it looks that a couple of versions ago the custom widget binding through manufacturer specific parameter was broken, as I see default thermostat widgets for my thermostats instead of Z-Wave.Me Thermostat widgets.
-
Hmm, after a number of updates of modules properties for thermostats and hard reloading HG page in browser correct widgets for Z-Wave.Me Thermostats have appeared.
-
And if we are talking about widgets - don't you think that showing the highest temperature below lowest one in Weather Underground widget is wrong and they should be swapped?
-
I think so too.
-
Ill just add that I really liked the new look and it makes it look more modern.. I was pleasantly surprised, keep up the good work :)
