Is there a way to program a fade time when controlling Hue lamps? I would like to change the dim level of my lamps with a soft fade of 5-10 seconds - for example.

A transition in time from all 5 parameters (dimming, hue, colour, saturation, temperature) is possible with the “Duration” parameter (see screenshot). But I must say that my Hue lamps are connected via the Hue Bridge. I can’t say what possibilities you have when the Hue lamps are connected directl…

That is what the “duration” option is for in the dim action card

Hmm, I see a delay parameter („Verzögerung“), but no duration.

aaah, i missed the “connected directly” tag as that wasn’t mentioned anywhere in the post. as it isn’t possible to do yet with direct connection to Homey, you can try the app “ Transitions ”

That‘s it! The reason I could find it was because I used the app to combine multiple lamps. In that case, the duration parameter isn‘t available, only the delay. So I guess I‘ll program the fades individually for each lamp which makes the Flow a bit more complext but it should work. Thanks!
