Hi Guys and @basbruss ,
thanks for having this integration! I am using it quite successfully for my Venetian blind for a while now and during renovation of my house I would like to extend the usage significantly.
I did already write an automation to de-/activate the Auto Toggle (for awnings and roller shutters) plus close the Venetian blinds only when sun is in front and only if the toggle is not yet on to avoid the releais clicking (described here, maybe a bug).
Now I want to integrate roof windows with an angle of 45°. Two issues I see:
neither horizontal blind (with angle set to 45°) nor vertical blinds calculate the position to my needs, where horizontal seems to look good at sunrise (it is a north-east-facing window) but open the cover way to early as the sun is still at the window. How to proceed here? Or do we need a new type? I believe roof windows are not that much of a special case
the have an integrated driver, means I can only send "open" or "close". I think this is the case with most roof windows (Velux and Roto as the to major brands in Germany). Any ideas? Completely closing would be not ideal but better than nothing.
Very similar question for my awnings and roller shutters: I don't want to drive them in/out up/down dozens of times a day, so I do know about the "min time" and "min change" settings, but that goes with the problem that it its not out or closed enough when setting these values e.g. to 50% min change
Any help appreciated!
