Gladys Assistant v4.5.2 is available and fixes many bugs!

Hello everyone!

I just released Gladys Assistant v4.5.2, a « patch » update that fixes quite a few small bugs reported here and there over the past week:

  • In the Caldav integration, time zones are now respected! There was a bug: if you had an event set in another time zone, the event appeared at your time zone’s time, which is no longer the case.

  • Fixed a bug on the scene creation page, the name of the previous scene was always filled in when you arrived on the screen.

  • Fixed a bug on mobile: The slider to control the brightness/temperature of a bulb did not work on mobile. It was very strange and it took me about 2 hours to figure out: the theme we use had made a mistake and added the property « pointer-events: none » on the slider, which meant the slider was locked but only on mobile! That’s no longer the case :slight_smile:

  • Fixed a bug when the user changed dashboards on the multi-dashboard, sometimes the data was not refreshed.

  • Since v4.5.0, it was not possible to delete the « user at home » box on the dashboard, it’s fixed!

  • Now, the « devices in the room » boxes on the dashboard no longer have a height limit, and no longer display a vertical scrollbar. For horizontal scrollbars, that’s another issue I’ll look into :slight_smile:

  • Fixed a bug when restoring Gladys Plus backups that prevented Gladys from restarting properly.

  • Added a few Zigbee2mqtt devices :slight_smile:

  • Finally, in development, it happened that Gladys remained active even after being shutdown by nodemon. I found the source of the problem and fixed the bug :slight_smile:

How to update?

If you installed Gladys with the official Raspbian image, your instances will update automatically in the coming hours. This can take up to 24 hours, no need to worry.

If you installed Gladys with Docker, make sure you are using Watchtower (See the documentation)

Congratulations to everyone who contributed to this release!
