Enhancement - Easier way to control lamellas position on venetian blinds

Open hovorkap opened this issue 5 years ago • 4 comments

There could be an option to use the main slider for lamellas rotation instead of rolling up/down the venetian blinds. Currently the lamellas can be controlled only in the settings screen.

For people (like me) who don't roll up/down venetian blinds to often and mostly open/close the lamellas, it would be handy to use the main slider for lamellas and the second one for the rolling.

So there are two possible solutions - a) An option in the config json to swap value and value2 control. b) A checkbox on the device settings screen in homekit app. But I'm not sure how to persist the value per device (in homebridge or fibaro)

Any ideas?

I can try to do the development part :)

I do not use venetian blinds. No opinion. Feel free to propose and/or implement a solution.

Hi Guys, I actually don't find any way to controll tilt position. How do you do it?

In an ideal way there would be a seperate switch (could be like a light switch with dimmer or simillar), so we could set tilt setting from 1-100% or something?

Unless this function is already somewhere, but I don't find it? I can only lift it up or lower it by set height from 1-100% and that's it.

I read some other posts, and people seem to find this option under settings, but I only get this: IMG_3624 IMG_3625

@ilcato Would it maybe make sense to create two Controllers, 1 for height and 1 for tilt?
