Sunrise with offset (using a variable) doesn't work

[renzowijgerse]

Hi!

I use multiple triggers (sunrise and sunset) with an offset. In the offset i don't use a fixed value but I am using an variable (integer). Sometimes the variable is positive, sometimes negative.

This are the variables I am using:

• zonsopgang-offset-gordijnen, value: -15
• zonsopgang-offset-verlichting-2, value: 45
• zonsondergang-offset-gordijnen, value: 15
• zonsondergang-offset-verlichting, value: -45

Most of them are working, except one: the sunrise trigger, with the variable zonsopgang-offset-verlichting-2, witch has the value 45. What I would like to achieve is a trigger, 45 minutes after sunrise.

A screenshot of the workflow is attached.

I hope someone can help me with this issue :-)

Hue, This didn't work for a very long time. So maybe Homey is fixing the bug... If you fill in the value manually it works?

The sunrise trigger with a value of 45 works fine! Using a variable, with the same value, doesn't trigger.

So, sunset works well with a variable? Very strange they use the same procedure.

[renzowijgerse]

Yes, sunset works fine (with a variabele, positive and negative) Sunrise works also fine, with a variable (negative value: -15). Except sunrise, with a variable, value 45, that one doesn’t.

I'm having the same issue with using a variables for both the dawn event (variable vBlindDawnDelay set to +15) and sunset (variable vBlindDuskDelay set to -15). I don't have an issue when hard coding the value. I have installed some new matter / thread shades and I'm trying to optimize the time that they open after dawn and close before sunset. By using a variable, I would be able to update the offset values on my phone without having to use my computer to edit the flows.

This seems a bug in the OS a longtime ago. I am not sure how to fix it

Thank you for the confirmation that the issue is with the OS. I have also logged a ticket with Homey Pro. Hopefully they will take care of it!

Could you check if this will work with the latest test version or that Homey still did not fixed it. https://homey.app/a/com.cyclone-software.sunevents/test/

Hi -

I did a test and the variables still do not work in the Sun Events "When" events... here is my test flow:

Thank you,
