@michael5r ohhhhhh! ***** now your showing off, your making me get all your modules lol, that looks good that will compliment your nest muddle perfectly! Thank you Sir!!!

You’re very welcome - I’m basically just building stuff that I need for my own mirrors :)

@michael5r Awesome looking module! Extremely professional looking.

When I get time I’m definitely going look at integrating with my MMM-ISY module to render on top of the Floorplan (my ultimate goal is to use a MagicMirror instance as a web-based home control interface-slash-ISY/Hass.io/Hue front-end on my mirrors, tablets, etc).

@michael5r Thanks for sharing :)

Hi is it possible to do a hide light or group that you don’t want to be seen rather than adding all the ones you have? As my hue stuff is in its infancy and it’s always having more bulbs added I would rather that it populated new bulbs rather than input the name in the model, I don’t even know if this is possible with your module? But it’s staying on my mirror thanks again for a beautiful module 👌🏾

There wasn’t the option to do so previously, but there is now.

If you pull the latest version of the module, you’ll find a new setting called hideFilter. It works exactly the same way as the displayFilter setting, but in reverse - any names you add to hideFilter will be hidden on your mirror.

Like this:

hideFilter: ['living room'],

Any lights or light groups named living room will now be hidden.

Check it out and see if it works for you.

Would you have any idea as to why I am showing multiple identical groups? I thought it was coming from one of my other connected apps to Hue, however I went in and disabled all the other apps and it still shows up. I cant seem to find a way to use hide or show since they have identical names.

[PhiDeltDexter]

As a work around to this, I went into my Hue app and renamed all my rooms with a 1 on the end, and hid all the ones with that 1. I am not sure where it is pulling the groups from if not the Hue App.

[michael5r]

@phideltdexter This is most likely due to you having Entertainment Areas set up on your Hue system as well.

Open up the Hue app, click Settings, then Entertainment Areas and see what’s in there.

If that’s not it, let me know and I’ll do some more debugging on my end.

[PhiDeltDexter]

I also thought about that. I had 2 entertainment areas setup already. One in living room and another generic one. I removed them just to make sure, it removed one duplicate of Living Room, but not the others.

In addition when I disable all the filters I have a list of groups that takes up almost my entire screen. The majority of which are not in the Hue App, which is why initially I thought it had to be pulling from somewhere else besides the Hue App.
