Cannot change values of number items in Basic UI

Setup, Configuration and Use Beginners

I have an item e.g. defined as

Number FF_Bedroom_Heating "Heating" <heating> (FF_Bedroom, gHeating) {channel="zwave:device:8v4t3ebe:node6:thermostat_setpoint_heating"}

My problem is that in the Basic UI I cannot change the value (it’s not a text field I can edit, nor are there knobs or buttons), whereas in Paper UI under Control I can. This happens for all number items. What am I doing wrong? How can I make the numbers editable from the Basic UI?

I’m running the latest snapshot.

You must use a Setpoint or Slider element in your sitemap.

Ah thanks. Makes sense. I thought the sitemaps were just for framing stuff. I’m still learning :slight_smile:
