History lost after battery swap, no reconnect

[ubfssF]

I have several different types of temperature sensors, which seem to share a common feature: when I swap batteries the sensors don't reconnect afterwards under the same idx (with RFXtrx433-ext). I can only add them as new sensors, which means that I loose the history of the former device id's.

Is there a workaround for this? I would like to keep the history

Yes. Add the new device with a new name. Then click Edit on the original device, then click Transfer, then select the new device. Finally, clean up by deleting the old device, then rename the new one.
Blockly code must also be updated with the new device

Yes. I would be nice if the idx of the old device was used.
