Hey there @RBoy & @625alex … so, I have the same feature request 4 years later… it’s a combination of updates to the Lock DTH and the ULM SmartApp… I’ve search high and low for years now, and it appears that this hasn’t been solved by anyone since the original Solutions were removed in the original SmartThings app…
Basically, all of us normal people, think of a door as a single object that is open or closed AND locked or unlocked. Unfortunately, SmartThings nor ActionTiles have implemented this device definition… but, there is a very similar example… for garage doors, there is a capability called Door Control… this capability has 4 states (that ActionTiles recognizes) Open, Opening, Closed & Closing…
So, my feature request is to add the Door Control capability to this Lock DTH… Then, in the ULM SmartApp, you already match the door locks to the corresponding contact sensor… I’d propose that ULM monitor changes of the Contact Sensor and the Lock and set the new Door Control capability…
I’d propose that Door Control be set to:
OPEN - when contact is open and lock is unlocked
CLOSING - when contact is closed and lock is unlocked
CLOSED - when contact is closed and lock is locked
OPENING - not used, or possibly used if contact is open and lock is locked (not an ideal combination)
When this is implemented, users of ActionTiles can add this Door Control capability as a Tile and we can customize the tile icon for each of these states, such as:
OPEN - Door Open Icon, Accented
CLOSING - Door Closed Icon, Accented
CLOSED - Locked Home Icon, Normal (or more ideally, with a new Locked Door Icon)
OPENING - not used, or Locked Home Icon, Accented, Blinking
This would allow all ActionTiles users to reduce their door tiles from 2 to 1 for each door, saving space and combining these into 1 logical device… many people have asked for a solution to this… if ActionTiles subscribers are not yet RBoy subscribers, you might find a few extra customers as well…
I would really appreciate your consideration for this feature request… this has seriously bugged me and others for a long time now and you have the best foundation to fix this for many of us. Thanks!
