Note that these changes will not survive a firmware update, so you'll have to go back and re-apply them after upgrading.

There is a way to make changes like this survive upgrades, but it is fairly involved and anyway probably better to manually do it each time in case the QML itself gets an update at some point.

HI

Have you added relay switches to the tiles? I've managed to add a switch to the tile but I cant select/switch it? I added this to the tile

Tile {

width: 160

height: bottomRow.height

editable: true

readOnly: false

color: "#538ed7"

border.width: 2

border.color: "#fff"

MbSwitch {

id: manualSwitch1

name: qsTr("L/L")

bind: "com.victronenergy.system/Relay/1/State"

show: hasRelay1

}

I'm guessing ive missed a comand or something? when i added the mbswitch to page main it works ok. I'd just like to be able to switch the relays from one of the main tiles rather than having to open menu.

Hope this makes sense

Thanks Mark

@Markus, I've seen screenshots of your Console where you have changed the icon for the pv charger. Have you edited the original icon, or added a second one for the Hydro?

And are you manually redoing your changes after an update, or are you using scrips to auto reload your changes after an update?

I have a mppt on a wind turbine, and next is to add a new icon for wind:)

Hi Markus, I have followed your commands and I find after rebooting the changes have reverted. Not sure how to save this modified OverviewTiles.qml file and have it nor revert after a reboot. Perhas newer versions on Venus have rendered this path obsolete.
