Bug: Don't show active fan button on classic colorwheel ever

Post by tomek »

Hello,

I'm trying to the fan button on the colorwheel, like it is shown here:

Unfortunately the button is always disabled. As I looked for solutions I came across the release notes of version "Daslight Official Release 15th May 2017", where it is stated:

• Don't show active fan button on classic colorwheel ever (fix update).

It sounds like this is exactely my problem, even though I use the latest version, where it is supposed to be fixed. I can use the fan out feature for all other dimmer channels, but not on the colorwheel. Do you have a solution for me?

All the best!

Hello Tomek,

The fan option does not work with the classic colour wheel, only with HSV and RGB.
The reason is that 2 colours must be set for a fan effect : the first colour and the last colour of the gradient.
Only HSV and RGB colour wheels can have 2 colours indicators : the thin for the first colour, the thicker one for the last one.
So, with the classic colour wheel, the fan option is disabled because it cannot be used.

Hope this helps.
