Feature Request: Fixed closing time independent of sun tracking

Description

I have a feature request.

Currently, ACP follows the sun until the configured End Time or Sunset, but there doesn't seem to be a way to say:

At a fixed time (e.g. 19:45), ignore the current sun position, stop sun tracking, and close the cover completely.

The existing Sunset Position only applies at the actual sunset, which is not suitable during summer when sunset is much later. Using Default Position is also not an option because it also affects the behavior outside the tracking window, including the following morning.

Use Case

A practical example is a children's bedtime routine.

During summer, it may still be bright outside at 19:45, but parents often want the blinds to close at a fixed time to darken the room.

Proposed Solution

Add an optional feature such as:

• Force position at End Time
• Ignore solar tracking after End Time
• A configurable target position (e.g. 0%)

Thanks for considering this feature!

Hi,

I found the setting I was looking for. The feature "End-of-window position" works exactly for my use case.

My current configuration is:

☀️ Tracks the sun
    🕒 from 08:15:00 until 19:44:00.

    🔚 After end time → 100.0%.
    🌅 After sunset (via sensor.sun_next_setting, +25 min) → 18%.
    🌄 After sunrise (today ~05:38) → 100.0% (tracking resumes).

    🔚 Move to default position at end time: on
    🔚 End-of-window position → 0% from end time until sunset (then the sunset position applies, if set).

🌙 Default (no rule matches) → 100.0%

This should solves the original issue I described...

Thanks! :)
