Scene Extrapolation 4.0.0
🚨 Breaking changes
- 🚨 Renamed the product to Circadian Scenes (domain stays
scene_extrapolation; search either name in HACS) - 🚨 Continuous “follow-up” preferences are now Automatically update lights (store migrates
continuous/follow_upkeys for you) - 🚨 Nightlights mode is gone — use a normal native scene + automation if you still need that pattern
Summary:
Built-in sun-following updates, dial as the default editor, and a much calmer day/night look — plus a pile of editor fixes so Live edit, drafts, and the light rings behave.
Added
- ⭐ Built-in automatic light updates (on by default): after you activate a circadian scene, lights keep adjusting on an interval with a matching transition — pause per room from the list, or set the global interval to 0
- Auto-setup creates one native scene per solar event, named after the event (
{area} Dawn…); combined day slot is{area} Dawn-Sunset - Empty list / created-scenes copy for Circadian Scenes, plus RGBWW color/white brightness graphs in the light editor
Changed
- Dial view is the default for new users (explicit Table choice in localStorage still wins)
- Scene list is a single table with area groups and the auto-update control at the top; friendly names everywhere
- Chromatic color blends (HS/RGB) stay on the wheel rim instead of cutting through white; wheel path drawing matches
- Dial chrome: multi-color dusk horizon into the surface, theme-split night wedges, softer vignette, portrait toolbar that pushes the dial instead of covering it
- Create wizard “full automatic” fills all five solar events (not a combined switch)
- Hide-managed native scenes defaults to on for new installs (migrated stores flip with 3.0)
Fixed
- Live edit no longer sends two Color descriptors to
light.turn_on(hs + rgb) — HA rejected that exclusion group - Refresh on
#newrestores the local draft instead of wiping post-wizard work - Sun/handle drag hits no longer steal clicks from the light rings
- Draft/location banners shrink the dial so the light list still peeks; vignette lines up with the horizon wash under banners
- Panel boot / Store migration / auto-update stop control; dial overnight wrap and date morph; scrub-release refine flash; list flicker and unavailable lights; horizon fill with sidebar open; brightness-graph label collisions; and assorted dial layout/scroll/chrome glitches
