A bit hard to squeeze the gist into the title but I trying to get a tile which I can turn on/change colour when triggered by a rule or sensor, and remain "on" until I touch it to reset it to off. Of course at other times tapping the tile will do nothing.
Essentially a virtual switch tile that has no "on" functionality except via a rule or sensor.
Any ideas?
The best I could offer is using the notification app or driver Follow Me by Bryan. It doesn't offer you a switch type functionality, more so display of text notifications. I set one up to receive notifications for when the washing was done, then created a virtual switch that cleared the notifications, placing both of these on a dashboard.
I'm not sure how easy it may be to have a switch type tile that always defaults to off when you press it.
I was thinking aloud a bit I could do it with a combination of node red + omni sensor tile but didn't want want to create a separate 'reset button' if I can help it.
I was trying to use tile master but couldn't set up a virtual button on the tile for some reason, I could alternatively go the inelegant route of superimposing 2 tiles I suppose. I'll give tile master another go later.
