Dashticz - Beta 2.5.5

[Lokonli]

* Blink on change.
If you set the flash parameter to a block definition, then the block will flash when the value changes.
The flash parameter determines the duration of the flash. You define it as follows for a 2x1 second duration:

Code: Select all

blocks[107]['flash'] = 1000;

The background flash color can be set to a specific color as follows:

Code: Select all

config['blink_color'] = '255, 255, 255, 1';

* Fix for OWM weather not always displayed correctly

* Buttons: load frame after button click
Via the url-parameter of a button you can define the url that should be loaded in the frame that appears after you click/press the button. In the past this frame content was continuously refreshed in the background, creating some issues. Now the frame content only get loaded once as soon as the frame becomes visible. There can be a slight delay. If this delay is too long for you, then please make a reply in this thread (or the bug-report thread)

* Moon image
The moon phase image doesn't depend on Domoticz anymore. You can use it by defining a button with the custom image 'moon' and add this button to a column definition (as in the past):

Code: Select all

buttons.moon = {width:12, isimage:true, refreshimage:60000, image: 'moon'}
columns[2] = {}
columns[2]['blocks'] = [
  buttons.moon
  ]

* Block title configurable
Added on option to hide the block title, so the data value can take up more space.

Code: Select all

blocks['567_1'] = {} //utetemperatur
blocks['567_1']['title'] = 'Utetemperatur'
blocks['567_1']['width'] = 2;
blocks['567_1']['hide_title'] = true;
blocks['567_1']['last_update'] = true;

* Fix for public transport provide 9292-tram and 9292-tram-bus
* Fix for background refresh of news
* Calendar improvements
Improved handling of recurring events. Hopefully all issues are solved now.
* Translations
Recreated the project at lokalize.co for managing the language file. If you would like to contribute to the translations send me a PM.
Added Lithuanian translations.
Improved Norwegian translations.

Just installed version 2.5.5 Beta and something strange happens. The screen is totally mixed up. If I click somewhere on this page all my buttons are loaded in separate tabs. Is it just me having this problem?

[Lokonli]

I've tested on Firefox (Linux), Chrome (Windows), Fully Kiosk (Android), Safari (iPad): no issues.

Maybe some interaction with your cache? or your custom.css?

I had a same kind of problem, adding the lines below from the custum.js to my own custom.js solved the problem in my case.

function getExtendedBlockTypes(blocktypes){
//blocktypes.Type['Lighting 2'] = { icon: 'fa fa-lightbulb-o', title: '<Name>', value: 'ds' }
return blocktypes;
}

@rleunk Thanks, that solved the problem

With the last update my domoticz log stays empty. Log in domoticz
I have a button in the block.

buttons.domoticz = {key:'log', width:3, icon:'fas fa-microchip', title: 'Domoticz Log', log:true, level: 2}

More with this problem?

I'll write some release notes in the weekend.

On flash: the choice was default on, default off, or configurable.
I prefer to minimize impact for existing users. So that ruled out default on. If more people would like to see default on behavior for Flash then I'll add the setting for CONFIG.js.

Thanks!

I would appreciate if there's an option for it..
Set it for false as standard, let the users choose ...

Big thanks for the time you put in this!

Good work!
