Dummy Blind Switch

Hi,

Is there any reason why a switch associated with a blind has 3 options - open/stop/closed, but when you create a dummy switch and give it a switch type of 'Blind' it only has open and closed?

My blinds don't seem to respond to the regular switch every time. My solution is to use a dummy switch that triggers an event that triggers the regular switch multiple times. This seems to improve reliability.

But I'd still like a 'stop' option on my dummy switch.

Hope that makes sense.

You can change your switch type, to for instance Venetian Blinds. This will give you the STOP option :)

I'm on Version: 3.5877 and I have the venetian option if that helps.
