What does "Status attribute for Devices/Rooms"

[user6704]

What does "Status attribute for Devices/Rooms"? I googled for "Status attribute for Devices/Rooms" and found nothing.

Also, can someone share where to find these answers. I looked in the documentation for "Status attribute for Devices/Rooms" and found nothing. 2 things would be helpful to tell the developers.

1. Add a tag on the manual docs page so people can search for "Status attribute for Devices/Rooms"

or
2. On every setting, either have a link to the actual manual for the setting or a hover/popup to tell me what a setting does.

So, this is a new feature in the latest firmware.

This is the status column to which I believe you are referring:

Then, on each device page, there is a section under preferences where you can set that status attribute:

That status will update real time; and allows you to keep a "birds eye" view on those status items while viewing the rooms or devices main page.

Thanks, kinda helpful. Needs some work like should have an icon on the device page. Battery 100 vs temperature 100 would be better as 100% vs 100° is more readable

i like it is editable on the device page
