Multilevel device control in scenes

[Archive] Feature request

Hello,

I just upgraded to v4 thinking « great, I’ll have the same features as in v3, and probably even more » and… no… It’s the opposite, I’ve lost the functionality I probably used the most in v3: Controlling my Fibaro FGD-212 devices in scenes.

Let me explain, in v3, I had linked my living room lights (controlled by a FGD-212) with Xiaomi buttons. When I pressed one of the buttons once, the lights turned on, twice, they turned off.
I also have a FGD-212 that reacts (or at least reacted in v3…) with a presence sensor in the hallway (well, that’s less annoying).

Now, with v4, I can create scenes with Xiaomi buttons as triggers, but the Fibaro FGD-212 devices don’t appear anywhere in the possible actions…

Is it possible to recover this feature that was very useful to me, namely integrating the FGD-212 into scenes?
(Because in addition, since then, the WAF has a bit of a lead foot… you quickly get used to comfort :sweat_smile: )

I vote to support you :grin::folded_hands:

This feature is quite crucial indeed, and quite simple to develop, so I moved its development forward despite it having few votes :smiley:

I worked on it yesterday afternoon and this morning:

Actually, the goal of this new action is to be able to control absolutely all types of devices in the scenes. Yes, it is redundant with the « turn lights on/off » or « turn outlets on/off » actions, but these two actions are, in my opinion, « shortcuts » to go faster and turn on several lamps at once :slight_smile:

The PR is here:

The feature is now available in Gladys Assistant v4.5!
