`Enhancement` - Display Sleep Timer On/Off Toggle #1742

Closed joshcliffejones closed 9 months ago

Enhancement Summary

Add a toggle in HA for Display Sleep Timer

Detailed Description

Firstly, thanks to all those involved in this project, its an absolute gem and I use it on 3 of my NSPanels!

Its great having the several options you have already built in to wake or sleep the display, but even when manually woken by service call or toggled on using the "display as a light" advanced feature, the display times out after 60 seconds and goes back to its screensaver.

What I would like to do is toggle the display on manually as part of an automation and disable the display timeout so the screen stays on until I toggle the display back off again or I re-enable the display timer with the same toggle used to disable it.

Thank you again! :)

My apologies! I did some more digging and can see that the button was removed in a previous update. However with the use of a service call to set the number of the timeout as this person mentioned here, this effectively solves my issue.

Though I would say, for a project that does aim for simplicity and ease of use, a button would probbaly be easier for some users.

Regardless, my problem is solved! So i will close this request. :)
