Rail problems in mixed rooms... #18

Open jgrn307 opened 3 years ago

I had this problem with the original neosmartblinds app, and they managed to fix it, so I'm hoping to get a similar fix here.

Background: a room has a mixture of top-down/bottom-up blinds and normal bottom-up blinds. If I want the room to "act" like a bottom-up only, I need rail 1 on the bottom-up blinds to go up and down, and rail 2 on the top-down/bottom-up blinds to do the same thing (rail 2 is the bottom rail on these units).

Behavior: If I set rail: 1 for a room with mixed blinds, then the top-down/bottom up blinds will open from top to bottom, and the bottom-up will open normally. If I set rail: 2, then ONLY the top-down/bottom-up blinds will open, since the bottom-up blinds don't have a rail 2.

Expected behavior: "rail" should only be used for top-down/bottom-up, but for bottom-up blinds rail is auto-set to 1.

Functionally, I want "rail 2" to be used for all up/down commands for top-down, bottom-up and "rail 1" to be used for bottom-up blinds unless otherwise configured.

I was hoping to bump this -- is there any way to deal with mixed TD/BU and TD blinds? The neosmartblinds app can handle it (somehow) as a group.
