Hi, it would be nice to get a shortcut overview like one gets with lights, speakers etc for screens or blinds in the same place.

This is still one thing that Homey does poorly for me, getting a quick glance of where my outdoor screens are positioned. Would be nice it you could use the lights template and see status and send command in % for screens that report such by using the slider and just open and closed for blind / screens that does not give a % position feedback.

Would be a great addition!

I once made a advanced virtual device to show if a door/window is open, and how many.  
Maybe you can use it for now:
