Perception No Longer Reports Full Narrative/Friendly State #219

Closed tarheelz closed 1 year ago

tarheelz commented 1 year ago

Disclaimer: I am sure I am doing something completely dumb.

I have been using Thermal Comfort integration since 2020. In building a new instance of HA, the state for sensor.thermal_comfort_perception reports simply as “dry” in markdown or developer tools. The full state, however is "A bit dry for some", which I can see by clicking on info for the sensor.

My first thought was this longer narrative/friendly description had moved to an attribute but that is not the case. My total guess is that “dry” is the simple marker for the icon now being output in the state field, which previously had the longer, narrative text.

Can we get narrative/friendly moved to an attribute if not to state?

That change has been added by supporting translations and is the same as other integration handle this.

OK. Thanks. Do you know how we can now expose the more verbose state in markdown language? An Entities Card or Glance Card reports the state as "A bit dry for some." A Markdown Card reports the state as simply "dry."

Closing this for now as it is a core issue
