When folder condition becomes TRUE then run marked programs

[kevinkaz]

I use the folder conditions.

It would be helpful if the firmware would run programs in the folder when the condition becomes true. Like the "enable run at start up" option.

It does that today. When Folder2 goes True this Program is triggered.

 

If

Folder 'Folder2' is True

 

Then

Send X10 'A1/On (3)'

Wait 5 minutes

Send X10 'A1/Off (11)'

 

Else

- No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action')

 

 

Folder2

 

Folder Conditions for 'Folder2'

Add conditions to limit when programs in this folder are allowed to run.

 

If

$SVar4 > 0

 

Then

Allow the programs in this folder to run.

I have folders with multiple programs that I wouldn't want to all run when the folder becomes true. Some individual selection is needed unless multiple folders for the same job are used. I feel this would get too complicated and obscure. Right now I don't use folder True/False due to program flow becoming too hard to understand. I used it for a while, and didn't like it, because while viewing inside the program it is hard to tell why it will or won't run with no inside the program indicator of folder status. Just personal preference after too many years of debugging software. Hair is getting scarce.

 

LeeG's suggestion (above) looks workable to suit for individual selection.
