WTH: ZHA visualisation is clunky, and difficult to read

Month of "What the heck?!"
1

The zha visualisation screen

  1. has no key indicating what colours and shapes mean. The dice aren’t clear on how to read the values off the connections (yes they’re rssi, but why are some a single number and others XX/YY. I never found a satisfactory answer.

  2. does not remember if you place nodes in specific areas.

  3. does not allow you to focus in on just the connections to one device

  4. is next to impossible to use with a laptop glidepad

In short, my personal opinion is that this feature is overdue an accessibility overhaul.

In addition, with an appropriate interface this tool could also provide easier access to ZigBee binding so that specific switches continue to work directly if zha is down.
