Request : Var and text sensor same max length
Posted: Saturday 24 October 2020 12:19
Hi
I have a development request (not a big deal but it makes life easier) :
Please consider to align the max length of a text sensor and the max lenght of uservariables.
Case :
I use to store the "old" value for some text sensors into a uservariables.
SInce text sensors can contain HTML they can be longer than 200 chars
Variable are limited to 200 chars. So the value of a text sensor does not fit always in a var...
-> it would be nice if there will be the same logic used for lengtht of text storage through all places.
Best regards,
