> [@SunBeech](#): > > the pricing part of the Electricity Overview assumes that I use dynamic prices. That is not the case in my situation: I have a fixed price contact (with off-peak and peak pricing). I have set the fixed price in Homeyā€™s Energy tab. Would it be possible for the widget to use that pricing info instead of the dynamic pricing? As far as I can see Homey donā€™t support off-peak and peak pricing - so the prices that come from Homey with fixed price is just a flat line. Would you still want to show that line? Or were you thinking that the widget should be able to manage the off-peak/peak config and calculations? ---

Or the width is configurable (like display 1 or 2 variables across) and different views are possible, like a list view or grid view. Also, it is not a display-only widget, but it allows changing the value, like the built-in widget does. Something like this? ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/0/7/079c649001ccca0277e80ec78024d0f10f11487d.png) ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/a/5/a5b152a29c5f4232a1e5416dc8990349ae48403b.png) Caveat: It does require setting up a personal API key to edit variables. ---

You are right: Homey currently allows you to set one fixed price value (I have to set the average of the peak/off-peak values) . And now that I think of it again, using that value would indeed show a flat line and a fixed price at the top right part of the widget. If you would add the option to add the tariffs in your widget, then you would still end op with a graph that changes only twice a day. I donā€™t think it is worth it changing your app just for that. Just disregard my question šŸ˜Š. ---

Yes that looks great šŸ‘ . And I am aware of the API key requirement in orde to set variables. ---

Hello @ThomasRS Loving the widgets, using a number of them on my Dashboards, thank you! A couple of suggestions for improvements/additions. With the Energy monitor, here in the UK we donā€™t yet have dynamic pricing available (I have raised this a couple times with Athom, but no luck yet) Would it be possible to add a switch to this widgetā€™s settings to turn this off, and remove the message at the bottom, as well as the empty price top right please? I donā€™t need reminding weā€™re missing out on that, and it takes up unnecessary space: ![IMG_8006](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/8/9/8995a8975668d5181302d321d483c8c34c9c7cb8.jpeg) For the Device Values widget, would it be possible at all to expose the colour of the tiles in Advanced Flows? My thoughts being I would like to dynamically change the different titles colour depending upon the device status. For example, I have a small status panel that displays checks for my Internet connection, and my fridge freezer thermometers. I would like to make the Internet connection monitors green when they succeed, and red if they fail, based on the generic alarm condition. And the fridge thermometer I would like to make blue below 5Ā°C and red aboveā€¦ similar for the freezer but the temperature being -20Ā°C. That seems a bit complex to implement in the widget itself, but if the tiles colour could be changed by Flow, that would be simple enough to achieve. ![IMG_8005](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/8/5/8544ba81baaf5e49d0d4a1d3df8ffdf8cc0d5307.jpeg) Thank you kindly for your consideration. Your work on these most excellent widgets is greatly appreciated. ---

So you could set temperature to be red, humidity to blue, and pressure to purple or yellow. Wouldnā€™t need to be dynamic like the devices, so would be simpler. But would make it easier to tell them apart at a glance. ---

**Quick update on whats currently in the next update (v0.8.0):** - **New widget, Flow Variables:** your Flow variables as compact rows that show the full name, 1 or 2 per line. Yes/no variables get a switch, numbers get āˆ’ value + (tap the value to type one), and text can be tapped and edited (requires personal API Key). - **Electricity Overview:** - It supports a fixed electricity price set in Homey Energy: the price shows in the header, without the price chart. - Solar export below zero is drawn in yellow, with ā€œExporting nowā€ in the header. - A new setting turns the prices off, leaving only usage. - **Light Controls:** a new setting stops the brightness bar at 1 % instead of turning the light off. - **Device Values:** a Flow card sets a tileā€™s colour (red, orange, yellow, green, blue or purple, or Default to reset it). - **All widgets:** clearer setting names, order and help texts. Still awaiting Athoms certification of 0.7.0 so I can push 0.8.0. ---

@SunBeech thereā€™s a Dad Joke one just off the bottom of the screen ha ha šŸ¤£ They use this app: > **[DadJokes Plus | Homey](https://homey.app/en-us/app/com.dmz.dadjokesplus/DadJokes-Plus/)** > > Add humor to your smart home with random DadJokes.

I keep meaning to replace the virtual buttons with a single Device Capabilities AVD that has 3 buttons, but just defaults to a dad joke for the Quick Actionā€¦ Iā€™ll get around to it eventually ha ha EDIT: I also keep the Dad Jokes app disabled, and the Advanced Flow only starts the app when you press a button, fetches a new joke, tells the joke, then re-disables the app so it doesnā€™t unnecessarily use resources šŸ¤£ ---
