Having the choice on or off if the state of group/scene is mixted

[Tixav]

It is more an improvement than an issue

[lokonli]

For a 'group' block you can set this behavior via the 'mixed' parameter.

See:
https://dashticz.readthedocs.io/en/beta/blocks/specials/group.html

you are wright but it is fixed in the config.js, sometimes I need to set off in the group is mixted and sometimes I need to set on. If I set it up in the config.js to 'on' the and I want to go to off, all devices go 'On" and I am obliged to push the group button again to set 'Off'. If I set it up in the config.js to 'off' the and I want to go to on, all devices go 'Off" and I am obliged to push the group button again to set 'On'. If a popup would appear to choice, it will be easier

regards and a lot of good things for Chrismass

And thanks for all the work already realised !

popup window would be an option, but is not supported (yet)

Alternative:
Create two blocks.
For the first one add:
switchMode: 'on',
Second block:
switchMode: 'off',

Then you will have two blocks: The first one will switch on all group devices, the second one will switch off all devices.

so perhaps this could help someone :
I add this in my config.js (popup is voluntarily null and will be changed on the fly in the custom.js when the device will be 'mixed') :

blocks['s9']={width:6,longpress:false,title:'all light',popup:'',ChoixMixed:true};
//the pop block that contains blocks must have the name Pu_ + the name of the group or scene
blocks['Pu_s9']={blocks:['GPGOff','GPGOn']};
blocks['GPGOff']={type:'group',idx:'s9',width:4,longpress:false,switchMode:'off',title:'all to Off'};
blocks['GPGOn'] ={type:'group',idx:'s9',width:4,longpress:false,switchMode:'on',title:'all to On'};

and in the custom.js :

// AFTERGETDEVICES
function afterGetDevices(){
$.each(blocks, function (i,valu) {

// find device in alldevices matching with block index
var ledevice=alldevices[blocks[i]['idx']];	

// scene or group !!
 if (blocks[i]['ChoixMixed'] && i[0]=='s') {
	var BlockData;
	var BlockDataChange=false;
	if(ledevice.Data=='Mixed') {
		if (blocks[i]['popup']=='') {
			BlockData={popup:'Pu_'+blocks[i]['idx']};
			BlockDataChange=true;
		}
	}
	else{
		if (!blocks[i]['popup']=='') {
		BlockData={popup:''};
		BlockDataChange=true;
		}
	}
	if (BlockDataChange) { Dashticz.setBlock(valu['idx'], BlockData); }
}

}
}

I tested with several domoticz scene/group, that works

I Wish a good year to all

[Tixav]

finally I just added this in group.js

` function groupClickHandler(me) {
//start of modification
if (me.groupState=="mixed" && me.block.switchMode=='ask'){
DT_function.blockLoadFrame(me.block);
return;
}
//end of modification
var newState;
switch(toLower(me.block.switchMode)) {
case 'on':

and in my config.js, i set the parameter to switchmode to "ask" to the block that owns the popup parameter
blocks['B300']={type:'group',idx:'s7',width:4,longpress:false,switchMode:'ask',title:'Ambiance',flash:2000,addClass:'statehidden IconCenter',popup:'Pu_s7'};
blocks['Pu_s7']={blocks:['GPSoff','GPSon']};
blocks['GPSoff']={type:'group',idx:'s7',width:6,longpress:false,switchMode:'off',title:'Mettre tout à Off',flash:2000,addClass:'statehidden',}; //devices:[304,1948,2157]
blocks['GPSon'] ={type:'group',idx:'s7',width:6,longpress:false,switchMode:'on',title:'Mettre tout à On',flash:2000,addClass:'statehidden',}; //devices:[304,1948,2157]

`
-> So I take advantage of Group's speed (instead of wating the refresh of domoticz scene/group that do not use websocket)

-> I just notice in the documentation of Group there is a mistake mixed does not work for group, the good one is switchmode

[lokonli]

Both parameters exist for groups.

The 'mixed' parameter indicates how to display the state of a group, if the group is in a mixed state.
The 'switchMode' parameter determines which command will be send to the group when you click on it.
('toggle','on' or 'off')

So, assume the group is in a mixed state, and switchMode is 'toggle':
If 'mixed' is 'on' then a click will switch the group off.
If 'mixed' is 'off' then a click will switch the group on.

Thank you for explanation, I think I mixed my mind
