Setting or config to disable humidity display.

[OneHoopyFrood]

It would be nice to be able to optionally not display humidity if the sensor isn't present, such as in the US model.

Is there a precedent here? Should this be a config option somewhere? That would require ssh-ing in, and if the intent is to make this accessible to lower tech skill levels, an OpenHab setting seems appropriate.

Settings are configured via OpenHAB rather than from the touchsceen. For instance, changing the system from EU to US will hide humidity:

hestia-touch-one-ui/src/plugins/store.js

Lines 220 to 236 in f0a6281

	if (store.state.info.systemtype === 'US') {
	// Typical US/HVAC modes
	store.state.showHumidity = false
	store.state.showHotWater = false
	store.state.showFan = true
	store.state.showHeating = true
	store.state.showCooling = true
	} else {
	// Typical EU modes
	store.state.showFan = false
	store.state.showCooling = false
	store.state.showHeating = true
	store.state.showHumidity = true
	store.state.showHotWater = true
	}

If the option to enable/disable humidity independent of the system type was needed, we would need to modify the OpenHAB interface to expose that option. The code for that lives over at: https://github.com/HestiaPi/hestia-touch-openhab

After changing it there, we can subscribe to the new MQTT message in the frontend app here and start using it:

hestia-touch-one-ui/src/plugins/store.js

Lines 295 to 298 in f0a6281

	// Unit settings
	'hestia/local/tempunit',
	'hestia/local/systemtype',
	'hestia/local/season',

I see! But I don't seem to have an option in OpenHab to switch from EU to US. Where is it supposed to be? I'm on 1.4-dev

I haven't used the latest image so that question might be better suited for the forums.

[OneHoopyFrood]

Huh. Well, getsystemtype.sh says US.

[jaythomas]

Ah! I believe we were talking about two different things here. You're talking about the humidity percentage that is displayed next to the temperature, NOT the humidity mode which is a separate thing (which you probably don't even see since you're set up for US).
There was never an option to disable the humidity sensor, but if there was the precedent would be to expose it as an option in OpenHAB. If you want to make a ticket there we can link the two, but it would be quicker to make your own frontend build. The html you want to comment out is in src/components/home-screen.vue:

hestia-touch-one-ui/src/components/home-screen.vue

Line 84 in f0a6281

{{ currentHumidity }}<span class="symbol">%</span>
