| post | 0.8: Honeywell Thermostats, Orvibo switches and Z-Wave switches and lights | Home Assistant 0.8 can now interact with Honeywell thermostats, Orvibo switches and has improved Z-Wave support. | 2015-11-16 21:27:00 0000 | November 16, 2015 | Paulus Schoutsen | balloob | true | Release-Notes |
We have all been hard at work to get this latest release ready. One of the big highlights in this release is the introduction of an extended iconset to be used in the frontend (credits to @happyleavesaoc for idea and prototype). To get started with customizing, pick any icon from MaterialDesignIcons.com, prefix the name with mdi: and stick it into your customize section in configuration.yaml:
homeassistant:
customize:
switch.ac:
icon: 'mdi:air-conditioner'
Breaking changes
- Any existing zone icon will have to be replaced with one from MaterialDesignIcons.com.
- LimitlessLED light services require colors to be specified in RGB instead of XY.
