Shelly Dimmer Gen 4 - no dimmer controls in HA

I’ve set up my new Shelly Dimmer several ways in Home Assistant, and there is no control or configuration item for the dimmer level. I want an automation to be able to set the dimmer to half brightness.

I have setup the dimmer with WiFi/Matter under the Shelly integration, and I’ve setup with Zigbee/ZHA. I’ve tried both on the original firmware 1.7.99, and also the 2.0.0 beta1 firmware. In all cases, I’ve done the configuration stage before adding to Home Assistant. I’ve deleted and re-added many times. I can turn the light on/off, and zigbee exposes a few other controls for dimming time, etc, but nothing for the dim-level of the light. Is it possible to set this? Do I need to go back to Gen3 to get this feature? Is it just not supported, or is it more likely a bug?

Show me please a screenshot of more-info window for the light entity.

Is this the image you are after? This is currently setup on Wifi through the shelly integration.

Ah, thank you. Yes, that screen allows the brightness setting. I see now that the brightness is a parameter of the turn on action, and not a separate entity control.

All good now, thank you.
