Setpoint valuecolor not working in BasicUI

Hi,
I couldn't not find any entry regarding this issue, but I bekeiv e this is one.
For Setpoint item I see that the color of the value is not updated in the BasicUI (but well under the Classic UI).
Note that the labelcolor is well updated in both UI's
Typical example:

Setpoint item=STAT_254_TAR icon="temperature" minValue=5 maxValue=30 step=0.5
labelcolor=[>=28="red", >=24="orange", >=19="yellow", >=15="lime", >=0="blue"]
valuecolor=[>=28="red", >=24="orange", >=19="yellow", >=15="lime", >=0="blue"]

I can verify that a simple valuecolor=["red"] demonstrates the issue for BasicUI and works in ClassicUI

Yes, neither label color nor value color is implemented for setpoint widget in Basic UI.
I will have a look.

This issue has to be moved to the appropriate repo.

In Classic UI, I see only label color implemented for label+value.

In Classic UI, I see only label color implemented for label+value.

That's odd, this works dynamically in ClassicUI OH2.4
Setpoint item=nm_test_temp minValue=-10 maxValue=30 valuecolor=[>25="red",<1="blue"]

Not really,
See below:
Capture 1 is Classic_UI with an update of the items states
Capture 2 same screen with Basic_UI
Capture 2 is the same Basic_UI but after interactive change of one item (Temperature désiréee)

[lolodomo]

I looked at the current code, maybe too quickly but I don't think. I seriously doubt it is now possible to get your third capture.
By the way, I will check that more in details when I found time and see if I can fix the issue.

[rrobinet]

Well while forcing an update if the items with the BASIC UI I come to the main issue, i.e. that the color of the value is not updated (see below)

[lolodomo]

Just to be clear: feedbacks are expected with a recent version (2.5), not a one year old version.

[rrobinet]

Sorry, but I am using the so called stable version :-$

[lolodomo]

Please reopen it.

[lolodomo]

Don't worry, I will test myself.

[rrobinet]

So I did the upgrade to openHAB 2.5.0~M5-1 (Milestone Build).

Problem still the same,
However (as expected) I have another bunch of new ones
As far as I can see the rules are not working anymore

[lolodomo]

Ok I have now tested Basic UI. In fact, as I have supposed by reading the code, neither the label nor the value are colored when you open the page. But when the value is changed while the page is already opened, the label color is updated.

[rrobinet]

Yes only the color of the label is updated, not the value (which is well the case with the classic UI).
NB: The second snapshot where no colors are shown is not actually relevant because, the items have to be manually (or via status) updated , which was not done when I took this snapshot

[lolodomo]

I have now implemented the color for the setpoint in Basic UI but it remains a problem with the live update of the value color. I continue my investiguations.

[lolodomo]

This is now fully fixed for Basic UI.

[lolodomo]

And yes it is working well in Classic UI even for the value, I don't understand exactly how but the important is that it works !

[rrobinet]

A few restart oh OH and reset of the browser most of the time helps. :-)
Now for what I understand, the the Basic UI keeps the color status each time the WEB page is displayed.
The Classic UI only reflect changes at a certain time (typically after OH start and when data are updated), leaving the displayed page, the colors returns to undefined for Setpoint , so when displayed again every thing is grey, a refresh of the variables having the same value doesn't affect the color anymore, only variables for which the value was changed are updated.
This explains my second snapshot, only number variables are updated (T° Livingroom, PROGRAM an AUTO are number items while the others are setpoint)
