Custom Thermostat View

[DennisC]

Hi Javi,

I am trying out the custom Thermostat View in Favorites. I have selected Thermostat from the Device Type menu.

I found the setpoint up and down arrow to be a bit sluggish. Meaning changing setpoint via the arrows may not register a change and/or be slow to respond.

Which led me to attempt to change the setpoint by selecting the setpoint value within the circle in the center of the up down arrows.

I thought this would have been a quick way to make a setpoint change of several degrees, but maybe you have a different intention for this function?

When selecting the setpoint value, a window opens with numbers from 0.0 to 20.0 degrees F, incremented by .1.

Is this still a WIP or am I not understanding the functionality?

The command is sent immediately, however a value update is not received immediately which may appear as sluggish.  Showing the estimated new value before receiving a value update is on my list, but no time frame.

UDM limited the dropdowns to ~200 values so this makes sense if the thermostat has a precision/step of 0.1.   Can you try to change the Step value in the editor to "1.0" instead of "0.1".  See the Missing Widget example for instructions to get to the editor https://wiki.universal-devices.com/index.php?title=UD_Mobile#Missing_Widget.

If this does not work, or the instructions are not clear enough do to UI changes, please send me a copy of the UDM backup file and I will take a look.  Please point me to the location of this node if it is not at root Home Tab or Favorites tab.

This worked, thank you.
