Different speed settings for fade and schemes

[Rapti]

I'm using Tasmota to control PWM RGB strips. Sometimes I want a static color, but sometimes I like to use the rainbow effect provided by scheme 2. Unfortunately, both the fade effect when I change the static color and the rainbow effect use the same speed setting. I'd like to have a short transition time between static color changes on one hand and a nice and slow rainbow effect on the other hand.
I kind of worked around this problem using some weird hacky rules on OpenHAB's side, but this is of course far from optimal and I think Tasmota should have native support for that.

Is that already possible and I'm missing something? If not, please add separate speed settings for fade and effect schemes.

As schemes "just" use fading, it is indeed the same speed option. You could reassign speed when you activate the commands for schemes, color changes or power on/off.

Adding features usually works best if someone does the changes and submits a PR ;-)

Yeah, that's what I'm doing right now. But that's rather hacky and it's only possible when controlling Tasmota through an external automation service.

Nothing stops you from also making it work for local physical buttons, just decouple from the light, and create rules to control the flow. You could wrap it in Event commands, allowing the same commands to work from rules or from external sources.
