Snapshots of component settings (lights, switches) for creating scenes (quick access)

[Vayain]

Hi,
it would be great to create snapshots of different component settings (lights, switches) and create scenes out of these snapshots.

For example:

• Set different lights in my house with brightness, color, temperature, etc. through HA, Hue or Tradfri-App
• Set different switches in my house
• Create snapshot of all these settings as a new scene
• Change some of these settings through HA, Hue or Tradfri and create a new scene

This would provide new HA-users with a quick access for creating different scenes.

sounds almost like my want.

Gui Scene editor with scenegen builtin and scene reload

I would love to have the ability to edit scenes build scenes based on current states and reload scenes all from the Gui. This goes along with the new script and automation configuration pages. https://home-assistant.io/docs/ecosystem/scenegen/

Great, thanks a lot for sharing!

I have been thinking about expanding my scene_generator script to be more of a fully fledged GUI for scene management like you outlined. I might look into it a bit more next week.

Sorry for the super late reply, just noticed the notification.
