2022.11: A heck of a release!

I wonder how many “votes” or likes of a message or dislikes of a single change or complains during beta etc is needed, that the core team who has decided and implemented because of own decisions reacts or responds or takes the user feedback into account (give the users the choice) instead of ignoring the feedback completely?

As in beta, this topic came up from a lot of people and as in beta, there is only one who argued, that the chance is great.

I’m very thankful for all the work of the team, but I really not like such inner circle changes without giving the user the choice to switch it off (again).

I just installed 11 and have to agree the style and history graph changes are both a negative.

Material Design has always been a cancer, but I’ve learned to live with too many devs blindly and poorly following “standards” that amount to nothing more than the UI equivalent of hem length or tie width. Overall HA does pretty well with it but this wasn’t a good change.

The graphs are a true loss of functionality. If I drill down I almost always want to know when and how much. Now that info is no longer readily available.

Unfortunately, I have no information yet… I had no time yet for a (safe) upgrade.

Can someone remind me of the expected behaviour of an Automation’s Information/Related tab?

I can see that it is empty now, but I thought it should list the devices/entities used in the Automation which room it is added to etc.

I am not sure is it a bug or a feature.

Copy of discussion from deconz official rhread

…when setting up triggers for My_automation and my comment later

Today I noticed this method does not work anymore. Reloading automations even manually by button press in Developer Tools/ YAML configuration reloading does not seem to work. It looks like it flashes the button to green so smoothly, it makes me to think is it actually doing anything anymore?

This error does not happen during every restart, so I cannot tell exactly, when there was a change, but I updated to latest core 2022.11 just few days ago

Now, this probably related to Smarter reloading of automation & scripts introduced in this version.

The problem is, that they are not going to do anything to this issue on deconz side, as in my understanding it is more general loading time issue, and the result of this error is, that ALL DECONZ BUTTONS ARE UNRESPONSIVE, e.g. many of my lights, and leaving house to that condition when I’m away is not an option.

I need something to reload these deconz related automations to replace the functionality lost in the update, is there any?

EDIT: There are other reasons to reload automations than jus a change in it, as you can see from above.

Basically, we need a Developer Tools/ YAML configuration reloading/ Reload Automations, which actually does what it’s name says.

And especially wee need a service Automation: Reload , which actually reloads automations.

Hi,

same “Timeout fetching zamg data” problem here.

2022-11-05 17:55:31.003 ERROR (MainThread) [homeassistant.components.zamg] Timeout fetching zamg data

I started using the ZAMG integration a few days ago and notice connection loss every now and than.

Here one can see the missing datapoints for two stations:
Timeout fetching zamg data - diagram

As I wanted to add another station for testing purposes, I now ended up with a

2022-11-06 07:42:50.096 ERROR (MainThread) [homeassistant.components.zamg] Unexpected error fetching zamg data: ‘NoneType’ object has no attribute ‘get’.

Will try to remove and re-install my stations if I have time.

Hi,
Since the update in my pictures elements, state_image no longer displays the image.
That’s true for all elements. Deleting the style does not solve this.

          - type: picture-elements
            elements:
              - type: image
                entity: binary_sensor.door_window_sensor
                style:
                  top: 2%
                  left: 29%
                  transform: translate(-50%, -50%) scale(.6, .6)
                state_image:
                  'on': /local/images/xopen.png
                  'off': /local/images/xclose.png

When using a view in panelmode on a dashboard there is no margin/padding. Was this always the case and I just never noticed it or did it change/break?

There is a margin/padding on the energy dashboard which is also “fullscreen” and it looks nicer

Well, I found that adding a width value it works again but this a lot of work to change all elements.
Hope that a fix will come soon.
Here is the link to the workaround solution:

My Netatmo Automation is broken on 2022.11, now if I have two windows open and close one of them both are canceled, I have reverted back to 2022.10.3 where it is working


Hi,

yesterday i got this “history”. I would say, this prooves its uselessness.

Is there any advantage in more that a percent of usecases to get this statistical view?

Frenck, Balloob and co, if I may make a suggestion to the team: I haven’t upgraded yet, but I’m taking note of all the chatter about the Material 3 look. At this stage I’m ambivalent. My dashboards might not even be affected, and I may even like the new look. With that out of the way: The product (project/software) is quickly maturing. Perhaps consider releasing (in future) a previous look as a theme. I know it may not always technically be possible (I’ve done my fair share of web development), but it could make the journey smoother.

Wait what :open_mouth: How is that even possible that the time axis goes backwards in time at some point, with multiple values on the y-axis for the same point in time in a time series ?! There are some serious rendering or math issues with the graphing backend they use.

Edit: looks like they’re using b-splines to render the graph and the spline is overshooting horizontally due to the large gradient at the end. Not very nice, but at least it’s just the rendering. They should allow the user to specify linear gradients as an option. This here looks really weird and anormal.

ZAMG integration has stopped working today at 06:00 for all my instances.

Same log: [homeassistant.components.zamg] Unexpected error fetching zamg data: ‘NoneType’ object has no attribute ‘get’.

I see you opened an issue already, thanks @oe3arc ( ZAMG Integration says "500 Internal Server Error Server got itself in trouble" while trying to add an new station · Issue #81664 · home-assistant/core · GitHub )

Which of these issues is yours? Issues · home-assistant/core · GitHub

that would be by design yes, as the panel mode shows the 1 allowed card on the full screen estate. It’s not a single card effectively anymore, but it should fill the full available panel.

Suppose that is the whole idea of Panel mode?

I have same problem. It looks like a bug. Scrape uses default interval (10 minutes) and ignores value specified in config.

Does anyone have an idea why an update would be released but it doesn’t show as an update available in my Home Assistant? I’m currently on 2022.11.0b7 and when I hit the “check for updates” and it say “no updates available” but 2022.11 update was released on 11/2/2022.

UPDATE This must have just been a bug of some sort because I started my Home Assistant and magically the update appeared.
