How does custom sorting work ?

[Jtduran7777]

I see the new option for ‘custom sorting’ in my various vue’s , what exactly does

this do  ? It’s not obvious to me thus far… Thanks for putting in some form of panel aggregation though I’d prefer to see each circuit treated sperately under the aggregate panel for sorting purposes.

 

I’d love to be able to specify minimum watts to be displayed (to filter out all the random

circuits with 10 watts) or sort by biggest change in watts in last 30 seconds or so to help figure out

what circuit is what as I turn things on /off.

If you enable custom sorting, you can then drag the circuits around on the home screen to layout the device view as you like.  It will then no longer auto-sort based on value – circuits remain fixed in place on the screen.

For me, with circuits with light loads (<10W), those devices jump around on the screen as it flips from 0 to > 5W due to some sort of sampling noise of the Vue 2 (Vue 2 zero’s out anything less than 5W).  If you enable custom sorting, they at least don’t jump around.  But I like your idea of being able to not display them at all if below a threshold – seems like a nice option to add.

This is how Emporia describes it…

“Custom Circuit Sorting on the Home Screen
If you aren’t a fan of how the Home Screen sorts your circuits by real-time usage, we’ve added the ability for you to create your own custom sort order, so your circuits will always be where you expect them. To take advantage of this feature, go to Manage Devices > Vue and Circuits and turn on Custom sort circuits on Home Screen. Once enabled, you’ll be able to tap and drag the circuits into whatever order your heart desires, which will be reflected on the Home Screen.”

Where did the description come from,

Did they do a press release for the new app version ? I didn’t see

anything in my email just noticed the app updated.

Yes, email.  I believe if you have that notification enabled in the software, then you should have got an email about the new release.  They haven’t updated the ‘what’s new’ in this forum in a long time.

Ah, Thanks just found it in Junk for some reason….
