Family-accessible scene creation?

[garyjmilne]

I would recommend that you take a look at Advanced Button Controller by @stephack. It is a very nice package where you configure "scenes" whose properties are retained within the app and only a scene activation device is created.

I don't use Home Assistant but I would expect that you could have an iFrame in a dashboard in which case this might be of use to you in your final solution.

[Release] Remote Builder – A New Way to Control Devices

Remote Builder allows you to create rich virtual remotes for controlling devices around the house. In the initial release there are 3 unique remotes as shown below. Remotes are the virtual equivalent of a physical button remote you might have around the house. Just like most physical remotes, these virtual remotes do not display the state of a device. They are intended to be used in proximity with the device being controlled, so the state is directly observed by the user. [image] Remote Build…

So:

1. Configure a single virtual button device with say, 20 buttons.
2. Define in ABC what each button will do. Each button has 3 actions so you would have 20 x 3 unique scenarios.
3. Define in Remote Builder what commands to execute on various button presses.
4. Embed Remote Builder iFrame in Home Assistant Dashboard.
