I am in the middle of a complete rewrite of both the driver and app.
With the app doing most of the heavy work, rather than the driver as it currently does.
Once completed, it should be much more accurate and have a refresh rate as low as 1 second.
This is taking some time as Iām setting it up ready for future addon apps at the same time.
Hopefully I should complete it this weekend ready for testing.
Guys,
I'm releasing a new version this afternoon.
I have completely rewritten it to move most of the processing into the childapp rather than within the driver.
You will need to update the childapp and the driver.
Font setting etc have now moved to the child app, so you will need to reconfigure those.
In testing, this has proved to be MUCH quicker with responses to change.
You can now set the refresh rate from 1 second.
However, if you have tiles that don't change very often (like modes) I would set the refresh rate to the maximum you can deal with
I take it there was no change to the parent app? I have my driver and child app updated and most of my Super Tiles updated and it looks like it did before, I'm not home so I can only really play with lights and temperatures for testing at the moment.
Over the next day or do, I should be releasing 'Super Tile Countdown'
This will enable you to display a countdown tile which can be triggered by mode, HSM, switch, motion etc..
You will also be able to superimpose it over an existing super tile.
This will then blank the tile and show the countdown.
Once the countdown has finished, it will return to the original display.
Once that is released and proven to be stable, then I'll move on to adding icons that change with the status
e.g a switch showing on or off icons
Nice, I'm really looking forward to icons or even color changes based on state so its easier to see at a glance what is on/off, open/closed, locked/unlocked, ...
Hi Andy.
I also noticed a delay in lux levels updating.
The latest release has fixed it for me.
I've not got much configured yet just a few basic tiles for testing.
Well done with the improvements.
EDIT: Is there any way we can configure the columns so that they move to the left in columns. (If that makes sense!)
I have put 'dots' in to try to get them to list better.
2 examples below show what I mean.
Hi Bob
sort of..
As you know, all the entries in the tile are automatically centred atm
However, you can add a few html spaces to 'nudge' things over a bit.
If you want something moved left then add the space to the right and vice versa
The html space command is:
Try it and you'll see what I mean.
If nothing else you could replace your 'dots' with blank spaces
Edit: Don't forget the character limit.. check the driver for the count
