Activate manual control when lights are turned on with individual settings
See original GitHub issueUse-Case: I have wall switches with two buttons. Left one toggles light and sets brightness to 100 %, right one turns on without specific settings, so:
- left button: maximum brightness
- right button: adaptive lighting
Issue: After using left button, so turning on light with…
service: light.toggle
data:
brightness_pct: 100
transition: 1
entity_id: light.bulb
…light turns on with 100 % brightness. After 10 seconds at latest it is being set to adaptive lighting´s current settings (e. g. 28 %).
Proposal: Set lights to manual control when they are turned on with a fixed setting (values brightness, color temperature etc.).
Or is there a workaround for my scenario? I DO NOT want to manually dim the light after turning it on. 100 % shall be accepted, please AL don´t ignore my wish.
Update: Maybe my scenario is related to https://github.com/basnijholt/adaptive-lighting/issues/37, at least parts of it.

I’m currently in the process of doing version 2. This will be added/fixed.
Keep this ticket open until you can verify that it’s properly working in the upcoming version 2.
A workaround I found to at least work is to first call
light.turn_on
thenadaptive_lighting.set_manual_control
after with a 500ms (delays of 250ms cause only one light out of 2 to work) delay, and only then can I apply the scene. But this causes the lights to briefly flash white and after some delay they’re set to the desired color. I think either this request or #37 should be implemented to allow us to apply scenes without having to manually track the state of the main adaptive lighting switch.
