Set cover position in scene not working after upgrade to 0.101.2

Hi all,

I recently upgraded my HA installation to 0.101.2 and suddenly my scenes stopped working.

The change-log already announce some breaking changes with the scenes:

Scene - Scenes have to be configured more strictly from now on. Each entity must be configured with a valid state. Furthermore, the attributes that can be used must be device state attributes . This means that they should be listed under developer-tools -> states . - ([scene docs])

and there is my issue. All my scenes were setting the position attribute and there was nothing for the status.

Example:

   - name: TV
     entities:
       cover.livingroom_big:
         position: 40

Now, could you please help me about which ‘state’ shall I use? Using ‘open’ or ‘close’ does not make sense because I want a value like 40 or 50.

So far I didn’t find any other post or sample configuration.yaml that could help me.

Thanks in advance.

You could use a script instead.

Here is a post that worked.

Hi,

Thanks for the workaround but it would be better if scenes would continue to work.

Regards,

Thanks a lot. That solved my problem. Instead of position I need to use current_position
