Scalable tiles

Post by HvdW »

Hi
I'm using Domoticz since end 2015 and still learning.

My request to the developers.
Is it possibles to make the tiles in the menu scaleable in every menu.
Currently the dashboard menu shows 4 tiles whilst the other menus show 3 tiles.
I'm suggesting a choice in the settings menu between 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6 tiles on one line.

The other thing is if it's possible to make the characters scalable.
On the next picuture it shows that text is outlined on the left side and the number display on the right side.

(Auto) scalable characters could make texts more readable.

PS I tried dashticz but I'd rather stick to the original.
Bugs bug me.

Did you play with the setting for dashboard in menu setup settings? https://www.domoticz.com/wiki/Applicati ... _Interface

Code: Select all

The default page (dashboard) supports several layout modes:

Normal
Compact
Mobile1
Floorplan

Devices/plugins: ZigbeeforDomoticz (with Xiaomi, Ikea, Tuya devices), Nefit Easy, Midea Airco, Omnik Solar, Goodwe Solar

But you are posting screenshots of the Utility page, not the dashboard (first page)

You're right.
However the dasboard just has the choices mobile, normal and compact.
Mobile = 'mobile'
Normal is 3 rows and compact is 4 rows.
In every menu when you make the browser screen smaller whether in compact or normal, the display will be reduced to one row.
Bugs bug me.

Next question, more or less related to the subject.
For every sensor icon I can choose different icons.
Some sensors show more, some show less to choose from.

None of the show the sunpower icon as shown on the picture for a choice.

All images can be found in ~/domoticz/www/images
- What is the section criterium on what images are displayed for a choice?
- Is it possible to show all icons present in Domoticz as a choice for every sensor created?
- Can I add icons I copied from elsewhere to be included in the choice?

PS
I tried to influence things by copying PV48.png to PV.png. No luck.
Bugs bug me.

Custom Icons can be uploaded through the web interface, see wiki: https://www.domoticz.com/wiki/Custom_ic ... binterface

I suppose this is mainly for switches. But there are topics on the forum for this.
Not all devices support custom icons.

If you want to enhance things the best way is to modify the source yourself. Or hope and pray that someone will pick the enhancement up.
In my 4 years of using Domoticz I rarely saw this happen.
