Problem

Description

Getting the DisplayedString property of a device does not return the same string that is shown in the website, instead it returns the string from the Status/Graphic pairs. The plug-in that created the device (AKWeather in this case) added a Status/Graphic for -2147482651 with a string of Error. However, at some point the string value of the device is set to a string, in this case: Winter Weather Advisory.

The devices page in the website properly shows Winter Weather Advisory. However, when I read the device from another plug-in using the HS SDK (HSBuddy in this case), the device DisplayedStatus returns the Status/Graphic value of Error. The StatusString returns the proper string value.

Expected Behavior

According to the SDK documentation, DisplayedStatus should return: "This is the exact string that users see in the UI".

⭐ Why is it DisplayedStatus not returning the same value showed in the UI? ❓

I can reproduce the problem if I retrieve a feature using HsFeature feat = HomeSeerSystem.GetFeatureByRef(2103); and then look at feat.DisplayedStatus

However getting the property directly using string displayedStatus = (string) HomeSeerSystem.GetPropertyByRef(2103, EProperty.DisplayedStatus); works as expected

Can you confirm retrieving the displayed status using GetPropertyByRef works as expected for you as well?

I can confirm that IHsController.GetPropertyByRef returns the same string as what is displayed in the website. I can use that as a workaround for now. I can leave this issue open to track the fix for AbstractHsDevice.
