2022.10: All over the place

I must admit that I don’t use a Bluetooth proxy (yet) but they are discovered within ten seconds when using a built-in Bluetooth adapter.

Hi, is there more documentation for the new Subviews feature than the 1 sentence in the release notes? It mentions “…for example, a navigation action on a button”, but I’m too stupid to figure out how to do that so I was looking for the documentation page like all the other features have which usually have a working example I can adapt, but found nothing.

Thanks.

Could you send a link? I can’t find any Amazon listing that isn’t marked as unavailable.

There are a few Lovelace cards that let you specify “Tap actions” that are triggered when you click/tap on them. The Button card is the most common one. Here is a screenshot of the config for a button that will take you to a subview:

The Area card also lets you specify a tap action, and so do the Picture cards.

It,s simply a frontend card with a navigation service call, e. g.m


type: button
tap_action:
  action: navigate
  navigation_path: path/to/your/view

Its probably from this change SwitchBot Curtain cannot be controlled (states are read correctly though) · Issue #78175 · home-assistant/core · GitHub Bump pySwitchbot to 0.19.11 by bdraco · Pull Request #78857 · home-assistant/core · GitHub

It looks like it fixed the issue for some and broke dual curtain setups.

Unfortunately we don’t have way to detect which are the right commands to send based on how the device is configured

If you can get Open Wonder Labs to update the docs with a way to detect which commands to send at GitHub - OpenWonderLabs/SwitchBotAPI-BLE: SwitchBot BLE open API we can try again to make it work for both setups.

Thank you, that’s exactly what I needed to see I understand now, I have many places where I use tap_action: already I just didn’t make the association it is that from the description in release notes.

yup, I am seeing this…

I’m on Android (Samsung S22), maybe it’s an added feature of Android LOL

Submitted a request to Open Wonder Labs: Curtain BLE designation of dual vs single curtain setup · Issue #11 · OpenWonderLabs/SwitchBotAPI-BLE · GitHub

LOL. I’m picking up my neighbours Bluetooth toothbrushes.

How can you tell?

My energy graphs are messed up now, they seem to ignore uom, 4 kw are less than 800w now apparently

I have two iBeacon devices. And I have 4 ESP32 devices running software I wrote myself reporting when they detect the iBeacon and also report when they are out of range. It reports via mqtt and all is good.

I wanted to try the iBeacon feature for the fun of it and setup a new ESP32 device with ESPHome

And yes both iBeacons are detected and entities created.

BUT I have carried one of them away from my home twice today. Very far away and for a long time. But the iBeacon integration reported the device as home the entire day. There seem to be a mechanism missing reporting the individual iBeacons as not home when they have not been seen for a given period. So for the moment it is my good old homebrewed software that does the job. The iBeacon integration does not work as it is intended yet.

Subviews for dashboards.

34 dashboard tabs reduced to just 1.

Just loving this new feature.

Thought I’d take a break to thank all developers for another super new release.

The brushes show up as ibeacons or?


When I click on them they are showing us as unavailable now.

Oh wow, you get more than the uuid. Must be nice
