Dashticz - General Discussions

[CaesarPL]

If I'm right, then you can NOT use in the same time auto-positioning and separately designed blocks.

Either
config['auto_positioning'] = 0;
config['use_favorites'] = 0;

or stick to your Favorites

Thanks a lot for your help, now it's work fine.
next step to custom my dashboard

[yfands]

Hello,

I started using Dashticz and like it very much but a question: Domoticz combines for instance the temp/humidity sensor into one 'block'. Dashticz on th e other hand splits the values into 2 'blocks'. I like the option but find it easier to see if both the values are in 1 block and it saves space. Can I suggest to make it optional? Both values can be adjacent or right adjusted in a column, in the case of temp/humidity/baro there are even 3 values.

Regards
Frank

hi, anyone knows how to modify the color in custom.css for loaded local images (fan.png) for instance?

Code: Select all

blocks[1]['image'] = 'bulb_off.png';

the .fa.fa-xxxxx seems to only affect downloaded images..

Hi all,

I'm quite new to Domoticz and to dashticz. At this moment I am creating a dashticz dashboard and I run into an issue when I try to switch a scene (Alles uit).
The button does not appear in the screen, while other blocks (lamps and a power meter) do work.
I tried all of the following settings:

Code: Select all

var blocks = {}

blocks['s5'] = {} //Alles uit
blocks['s5']['width'] = 6;

blocks['5'] = {} //Alles uit
blocks['5']['width'] = 6;

blocks[5] = {} //Alles uit
blocks[5]['width'] = 6;

var columns = {}

columns[4] = {}
columns[4]['blocks'] = ['s5',5,s5]
columns[4]['width'] =4;

var screens = {}

screens[1] = {}
screens[1]['background'] = 'bg2.jpg';
screens[1]['columns'] = [4]

None of the tried options is working. I also read that

blocks['s5'] = {} //Alles uit

should be the right one.

If I look into domoticz the IDX of my scene is 5.

If I just use the the url

http://x.x.x.x:x/json.htm?type=command&param=switchscene&idx=5&switchcmd=On

all my lights do go off as expected.

What am I doing wrong?

[EdwinK]

Can confirm this happening.

Code: Select all

columns[5] = {};
columns[5]['blocks'] = ['s2'];
columns[5]['width'] = 2;

*and now I unconfirm it, because it was fixed by making sure that the column was actually added to a screen. Like this

Code: Select all

screens[2] = {}
screens[2]['background'] = 'background.jpg';
screens[2]['columns'] = [4,5,6]

In my case it was about column 5, that was omitted in the screens settings.

[CaesarPL]

In my case this one works fine

Code: Select all

var blocks = {}

blocks['s1'] = {}
blocks['s1']['width'] = 4

columns[1] = {} 
columns[1]['blocks'] = ['blocktitle_1',24,100,103,21,22,166,'s1'];
columns[1]['width'] = 6;

screens[2] = {}
screens[2]['columns'] = [1,7,9];

Are you sure that you have switched auto positioning to Off?

[Stephan83]

That was indeed the trick! Auto positioning was turned on .

Thanks for the verry quick response!

The easiest thing in my opinion is to open the .png file and change the color in photoshop for example. Otherwise you would have to try a color overlay, maybe this helps https://stackoverflow.com/questions/177 ... ansparency

Has anybody on here found the right strings for buienradar to show weather in the UK?
I can find the URL for Cambridge, but I can't find a suitable image.

Did you get anywhere with this..

There is a UK Met Office datapoint for weather radar at https://www.metoffice.gov.uk/datapoint/ ... -map-layer but its well beyond my skills to do anything with it.

mmm Dear all
Wich API do i need?;
https://developers.google.com/maps/get- ... authuser=2

I used mutiple...
Only i see no gm in my srceen, and i use:

Code: Select all

columns[4] = {}
columns[4]['blocks'] 	= ['trafficmap','traffic','train'];
columns[4]['width'] 	= 12; 

And this settings [ changed something ]

Code: Select all

config['gm_api'] = 'AIzaSyDP2b06TEalfbyswwPUw0Ci1RGfuE69c';
config['gm_zoomlevel'] = 4;
config['gm_latitude'] = 52.8745659;
config['gm_longitude'] = 3.1139102;

I used a api, months before that was working fine.
After install the latest beta, no maps to see in my dash

[curious]

I use block below, but "last updated"is still visible

Code: Select all

blocks[8]= {}
blocks[8]['title'] ='slaapk schemerlamp';
blocks[8]['show_lastupdate'] = false;
blocks[8]['width'] = 4;

Do I have to set something else too ?

Sadly, not. I parked it for now as I am still trying to work out why Google Maps won't display on my V2 dashboard when it worked perfectly on V1.

Could it be because the zoom, lat and long values are not quoted (i.e. '52.8745659';)

[Ingmar]

Try

Code: Select all

blocks[8]['hide_lastupdate'] = true;

[toreandre]

Im having the same issue with traffic map from google maps, have been reading on the forum for solutions but none has worked.
Latest stable version of dashticz, correct API, no ' ' on lang, long and zoomlevel.

[EdwinK]

I believe you need them in the ' ' things.

Can't check, I don't use maps on my dashboard.

[curious]

Thanks, that helped.
Little strange ? Two parameters for one toggle ?

[curious]

I used the lines of code as shown in the first two blocks of code in my config.js . Which ran perfectly.
After the last update I had to add the code in the third block.

Now I don't get any newsfeed anymore. Anyone knows what is wrong ?
Without the crossorigin part, same result.

Code: Select all

blocks['news_1'] = {}
blocks['news_1']['width'] = 6;
blocks['news_1']['feed'] = 'https://crossorigin.me/http://www.nu.nl/rss/algemeen';

 blocks['news_2'] = {}
 blocks['news_2']['width'] = 6;
 blocks['news_2']['feed'] = 'https://crossorigin.me/http://feeds.feedburner.com/tweakers/nieuws';
blocks['news_2']['image'] = 'tweakers.png';

Code: Select all

columns[4] = {}
columns[4]['width'] = 5; 
columns[4]['blocks']=['default_news_url','news_1','news_2'];

Code: Select all

config['default_news_url'] = 'http://www.nu.nl/rss/algemeen';

Ik krijg die variabelen ook niet aan de gang... (couldn't get it working with the variables too)

Ik vond ergens in dit draadje een oplossing die er omheen werkt: (found this in this thread:)

var maps = {}
maps.plaatsnaam = { height: 450, width:12, latitude: 52.151828, longitude: 5.418363, zoom:13 }

en dan maps.plaatsnaam opnemen in een column om te tonen (then add maps.plaatsnaam in your column part)

Voorbeeld: (example:)
columns[3] = {}
columns[3]['blocks'] = ['clock',maps.plaatsnaam]
columns[3]['width'] = 4;


Ik snap er helemaal niks van waarom het met de variabelen niet werkt. Maar dit is even mijn work around.
