Question,

Can anyone help me create an (advanced) flow? I’m new to Homey and definitely not a programmer or anything like that…

I have 6 Zigbee RGB spotlights that I want to automatically change colors in sync with each other. So, for example, every 30 seconds, they smoothly transition to a different color and repeat this endlessly until the flow give the command to turn the lights off.

Has anyone created a flow like this before and can explain it to me in simple terms?

I think that wouldn’t be possible with smooth color transitions, that would just put too much load on Homey especially with 6 lights.

Do you have a Hue bridge? Those can do color transitions (though not sure if that’s only for Hue bulbs or also for other generic Zigbee bulbs), and you can start them from Homey using 1 Flow card.

First suggestion is to group the 6 spotlights. This is possible without an extra Homey app → [Managing Device Groups](https://support.homey.app/hc/en-us/articles/19690657922972-Managing-Device-Groups)

For example, this is a flow that automatically changes the colors of our outdoor lights between red, green, and white every 2 minutes during the Advent season:

The stopwatch cards come from the Homey [**Chronograph**](https://homey.app/a/nl.fellownet.chronograph/) app.

Whether the color transitions run smoothly depends on whether the spotlights support this feature.  
Unfortunately, I don’t currently have any lights set up that would allow me to demonstrate this feature to you. However, you’ll need to right-click on the corresponding Flow card and then enter the number of seconds under “Duration” to specify how long the transition should last.

If your spotlights don’t support this feature, you can also use an additional Homey app, such as the **Chronograph** , [**Transitions**](https://homey.app/a/name.klep.transitions/), or the [**Dimmy**](https://homey.app/a/the.dimming.company/) app.

Hello Dirk,

Thank you for your reaction, i lear how to put the light into a group, that’s the first step. Now i go try to make the flow with the colors, I’ll let you know if it worked.

Another question, whats the differend between the blue threads and the orange one between the differend steps in your flow?

Thank you in advance!

I’ve never noticed the little cross and the little hook before. Maybe I need new glasses… 😂
