[Feature Request] Way to directly choose value of input_select #537

esdcmc · 2022-10-24T16:33:45Z

FEATURE DESCRIPTION

It would be nice if input_select entities featured up and down arrows to move selection in both directions and also on GridCards.

ADDITIONAL CONTEXT

Input_select entities only show the values on entitiesCard (on GridCards I only get an icon) and they only evolve in one direction when tapped (say I have got a,b,c,d to select from, every time I tap ‘a’ goes to ‘b’, then ‘c’, then ‘d’, then ‘a’ again).

PANEL / FIRMWARE VERION

12.2.0.1 (this is the Tasmota firmware), the lovelace-ui version I think is the latest you pushed on home-assistant/appdaemon (3.5.0? how do I check this?)

model: I've got two US-L and one EU

I would suggest a popup page allowing to choose the value

esdcmc · 2022-10-25T08:30:20Z

Whatever is easier for you: pop-up would certainly do.

it would be nice though that the selected value showed on cardGrid instead of the icon (at least the initial character or in case of a number selection, the number should show, similar to what the sensor entities do).

For CardGrids I thought to something similar to the temp field in the climate card which has got arrows pointing up and down.
For CardEntities maybe an horizontal line to select (similar to the brightness for lamps).

But, again, if pop-up is easier, that would be great.

Thanks a lot for considering all that.

Checkout latest development version

https://docs.nspanel.pky.eu/faq/#how-to-upgrade-from-a-release-to-the-current-development-version

For the Icon, you can assign your values icons or text.

          - entity: light.test_item
            name: NameOverride
            icon:
                "on": mdi:lightbulb
                "off": "text:"

or even display something directly from homeassistant with a template

        icon: 'ha:{{ state_attr("climate.wohnzimmer_boden","current_temperature")}}'

That is nice indeed for some cases. But that brocken my request a while ago, where single click moved to Next option .

#301 (comment)

Could be a way that que could choose the behaviour of the click? In the case of my request we often only choose the first option , so only one click is way simpler, but sometimes we choose too other options.

If you want to select a specific option, you can call the service to select it directly.

Not a specific option.

        - entity:input_select.aspirar_sala 
            icon:
                "0": sofa
                "1": numeric-1-box
                "2": numeric-2-box
                "3": `numeric-3-box

The previous behaviour with this code was that one click moved to another state and so another icon, now it opens an pop up

This is to choose the number of iterations an robot vaccum do per room.

With your sugestion this

          - entity: service.input_select.select_next
            icon:
                "0": sofa
                "1": numeric-1-box
                "2": numeric-2-box
                "3": numeric-3-box
            data:
              entity_id: input_select.aspirar_sala

doesn,t work all page turns blank. With this:

          - entity: service.input_select.select_next
            icon: table-furniture
            data:
              entity_id: input_select.aspirar_sala

... it works but i don,t know the state of the input-select.

I think i saw somewhere someone suggesting that in input-select the single click could stay has it was and only long_press should open the pop_up.... like it happens with lights.

I really like the behaviour of input_select before this change, that page was very usefull like it was....

joBr99 · 2023-01-09T16:11:30Z

Can you try to add the status parameter into the entity?

          - entity: service.input_select.select_next
            status: input_select.aspirar_sala
            icon:
                "0": sofa
                "1": numeric-1-box
                "2": numeric-2-box
                "3": numeric-3-box
            data:
              entity_id: input_select.aspirar_sala

finipini · 2023-01-09T17:33:50Z

Same behaviour has without status, all page becames blank...

joBr99 · 2023-01-09T17:34:53Z

Have to test myself and see what the error Message in the log is

finipini · 2023-01-09T17:36:26Z

i will try to see that

update to main in hacs, restart appdaemon and try again :)

Sorry was busy... but yes it works now again, thanks for the effort...

viDU85 · 2023-02-28T10:29:21Z

I would suggest a popup page allowing to choose the value

Would it be possible to increase the font size for the values?

thanks!
