A welcome addition to the list of State Image Sel Enumeration images would be a Home and Away image

It’s a totally weird way of doing it, and there are some limitations, but it’s possible to make your variable for home status an emoji . And Away too. So that would give you an image that represents the status.

Re: Add Home/Away images for the State Image Sel Enumeration

I’m not sure what more to explain. I have a variable that represents “house mode“. Those modes correspond to home, away, and asleep. But instead of using those three words, I use three different emoji. One of the house, one of an arrow pointing out, and one of a bed.

Indigo is perfectly good at using those emoji as variables. So the logic is just the same as using the term “home” and the emoji for a House. If variable equals house emoji …

This allows me to display these “variable images” in control pages. The only hitch with this is that there are some limitations in size since they are just characters in a font, really. I use some old iPads for control panels, and older versions of iOS use slightly different fonts that display a little wonky.

My use case is to change the icon in the client application to represent the status of the plugin device - not on the control pages tho, thanks!
