Interested too.

I just installed Somfy blinds with RTS motors.
They can be controlled by the Somfy Telis remotes of which I have two different kinds.
One is a Pure which can open en close the blinds; tilting the blinds can be by stopping the movement just in the right moment.
The second one is a Mod/Var with an additional scrolling wheel which can be used to tilt the blinds more accurately.

Furthermore, I managed to mimic the Pure remote behaviour with a Blinds switch in Domoticz.
However, pressing the Stop button on the switch is too much delayed to be of any help in this.
So I think it would also help when I can mimic the Mod/Var remote with another type of switch in Domoticz.

Any suggestions appreciated.

My blinds are (Push On Button), so this method probably will not work.

Hi,

I had the same idea, controlling a blind with a slider. So i created a LUA script in combination with two BASH scripts. In my setup it works with the standard domoticz interface, but if i use Dashticz it sometimes reacts strange.

I have one major problem: if the slider is set below 10%, OTHERDEVICES returns 'nil'. The same thing happens with the switch type "Blinds Percentage". Is this a bug?

I have copied the sunscreen.lua, suncreen_open.sh and sunscreen_close.sh in one file. I can't add three separate files as attachment??

I also have this problem. I am controlling mechanised windows with Sonoff Dual relais flashed with ESPURNA firmware. It takes 42 seconds to fully open the windows. In espurna I have set an auto off the relais after 42 seconds(When a relay is set to on it turns off after 42s). I have made bash scripts with mqtt commands for opening and closing. For stopping the windows at certain possition, I have made a push on button in domoticz that I called Stop All.
It is a bit of frustrating so I am looking for a better solution. I want to use percentage values or multi switch with different percentages as someone above showed.
