I believe I have found a valid feature enhancement to the Light Turn On or Off Schedule feature that should be implemented as it is a very common feature in numerous other automation solutions. When using Turn on/off at Sunrise/Sunset there is no capability to offset X amount of time prior or after…

Agreed. My wife is always complaining that the living room gets too dark before the light comes on. I am using a smart app that turns it on 30 mins before sunset now. I forgot the name of it but if you browse around, you will find it. Should be native though.

Thanks for the quick responses, everyone ( @Mbhforum and @scottinpollock ) . Looks like this action will hold me over for now, but really simple features like this should be built in to the default actions to allow cleaner flow of defined rules. I think the biggest challenge with ST is I want to …

Yup. I’d love to both 1) be able to specify the offset for sunset/sunrise and 2) be able to review the physical graph decorated with all the SmartApps I’ve installed. Actually, the IDE already has something that almost looks like what I want, it just needs a bit more interactivity and search.

The sunrise / sunset SmartApp has the ability to set offsets (which is very useful). I would like to see this same additional control in the sunrise and sunset options in Actions. Resurrecting this. Can someone make this happen? I’m using the Sunrise/Sunset app, and in particular, I can’t set th…

I have tried to set turn on at sunset for my front entrance light combined with a scheduled turn off at 11:00 pm. Doesn’t seem that scheduled times can be mixed with sunset/sunrise events? The sunset turn on worked OK but the scheduled turn off was inoperative.

Once I’ve entered a specific trigger time for a light through the regular mobile app, i don’t seem to be able to get rid of it again. I can change it to a different time, but I can’t go back to original state of time left unspecified. Is there a trick to this? (IOS if it matters.)
