Changing the color_temp in steps #6

Open sorryusernameisalreadytaken opened 4 years ago

sorryusernameisalreadytaken commented 4 years ago

I want to change the color_temp or kelvin in steps when I press short_press_up_release or short_press_down_release but wanna keep the default config to dim the lights with holding the up or down button.

Is that possible?

I try a lot of configs. I can set a specific color_temp value but not something like +100.

It's possible to do this, but not how the app is right now, it would need some change and I'm willing to help you code this, but you should take a look at Controller X: https://community.home-assistant.io/t/controllerx-bring-full-functionality-to-light-and-media-player-controllers/148855

It's like my app on steroids ;) i think a lot of people use this right now instead of my app, as it supports more devices and actions. Maybe it fits your needs. The difference is that he uses a loop to smoothly dim lights and I use a deconz service (that's also why my app only works with deconz) that does the dimming. I think my way is cleaner, however it's limited to changing brightness and it only works with lights integrated through deconz.
