# Transitions

_Current app version: 2.0.0_

Flow cards to start/stop timing transitions.

- GitHub: [GitHub - robertklep/name.klep.transitions: Homey app — Flexible Time Transitions](https://github.com/robertklep/name.klep.transitions)

## Example

The following example consists of two flows: the first flow starts a transition (in this case, simply triggered by “Deze flow is gestart/This flow has started”), and the second uses the transition values (through the `# Waarde` tag) to set the brightness of an INNR lamp.

The transition configuration `0.01-1,11s,1s` translates to:

- start at value 0.01 (for a lot of lamps, a dim value of “0” has a special meaning, so we’re using 0.01 as a “safe” starting value)
- stop at value 1
- the total duration of the transition should be 11 seconds
- update the value every (1) second. This means that the second flow will trigger each second, until the total duration time (and therefore, the end value) has been reached.

The name of this transition is `innr-light-brightness`.

Can’t get the app working with the IKEA GU10 Spot, or the IKEA E27 Bulb 1000lm.  
The brightness is set to the first value, and then nothing happens.

For example: 0.1-1,60s,6s  
Brightness is set to 0.1, then nothing happens after.

Thanks for making this App!

Where do you define the transition name (or is it a variable)?

It’s the “name” field in both the Action and Trigger flowcards. You can make up any name you want, as long as it’s unique across all transitions that you want to define.

Is there/will there be a settings page where you can define some transitions which you can then easily pickup in flows?
