Simulated garage door device issue

[Lgkahn (Larry)]

I was trying to write a smart app to tie the simulated garage door device with two real devices a relay/switch and the contact sensor… I am trying to setup the input in the preferences section and have sections to choose the contact sensor and the relay/switch, but the virtual garage door device does not
show up under the following input sections
doorcontrol, garagedoorcontrol, relayswitch, button etc. or switch. It does show up under contact sensors… so I could probably change the state there. but I would need to be able to tell when the button is pressed to correctly link it with the actual devices… according to the device type code
it has the following cababilities

capability "Actuator"
	capability "Door Control"
    capability "Garage Door Control"
	capability "Contact Sensor"
	capability "Refresh"
	capability "Sensor"

so it should show up under some of those other sections…

figured it out… see my new smartapp for this in the smartapp section

New smart app to link the virtual/simulated garage door device with two actual devices

Syncs a Simulated garage door device with 2 actual devices, either a tilt or contact sensor and a switch or relay. The simulated device will then control the actual garage door. In addition, the virtual device will sync when the garage door is opened manually, \n It also attempts to double check the door was actually closed in case the beam was crossed. create a virtual device (see elsewhere for instructions) for device type use the simulated garage door. You can also create a modified version for yourself I recommend decreasing the runin time to 1 sec, otherwise it takes 6 secs before the door starts closing or opening when you toggle the simulated device icon. (That is what I did) install this smart app. select your relay /switch, and actual garage door sensor in the app, Also s…
