Icon declaration question

[kl8ter (Tobias Wellenhügel)]

Hello everybody,
can someone explain the following to me and give a solution for it?

If I declare the item as follows:

Number:Angle  astro_azimuth   "Azimuth [%.2f °]"  <sunrise> {...

and then want to read the state in rules, it is not carried out.

if(astro_azimuth.state > 170 && astro_azimuth.state < 250 ) 
        {
           //do someting
        }

But if I declare the item as follows: (Without :Angle)

Number  astro_azimuth   "Azimuth [%.2f °]"  <sunrise> ...

Then it works.

What do I have to change in the rules if I don’t want to change the item?

thank you

Hi Tobias,

same issue as discussed here

Cloudiness from OpenWeatherMap binding

Thanks @rlkoshak - that order is what I actually meant to write late here if (LocalWeatherAndForecast_Current_Cloudiness.state < 90 | "%" ) { … Not too sure about the single or double % either, as I only have other units active here for quantity type conversions, but think with the quotes the sigle % should be fine.

Obviously in your case with … | "°" …

Hope this helps

Like this:

if((astro_azimuth.state > 170 | "°") && (astro_azimuth.state < 250 | "°")) 
        {
           //do someting
        }

?
