Description: Got some cosmetic issues and cant get it to work correctly so i am hoping someone can help me 'walk' through it.
First of al Hi and Thank you for your time!.
I am pretty new to domoticz and i am not a programmer but i love data, so i couldnt resist setting up domoticz on my rpi and connected it to my smart meter. As of last august i have it running and it all seemed to work correctly (power and gas utility).
Two weeks ago i had solarpanels placed and as from that moment i was noticing some for me 'unwanted' cosmetic effects.
1st cosmetic wish:
I have both activity on my power usage as my power return. but on the dashboard the only value shown is my return value (if active) otherwise it shows usage. On the utility page i see both values and i would like to show the same information on my dashboard for my Power(Stroom) device.
I found This topic wich states my issue and some code to edit to fix this, but the lines given are not consistent with my files and i cant get it to work.. (added some files of my screen)
2nd cosmetic wish:
I would love to create a dashboard having only three devices, my power (as shown on the utility page (wish 1) showing usage and active return), Gas (in its current state), and i would love to have a 3th one (dummy), showing a solar panel as icon with the main value showing daily solarreturn Kwh.
Not sure if this is possible i could find a way to change the logo (i did uploaded my custom icon)
Hoping someone can help me a step forward...
i have a few more ideas/wished but dont mind fooling around once i understand the trick with these two steps
