How to flash a frame (or icon) at arrival on telegram on knx ?

Thanks

Hello,

There's no flashing icons on bOS, unfortunately.

But, if you can get some cool GIF or animated SVG that you can also get a still frame, you can set the still frame image as "Image", and set the animated image as the "Image On" under status.

Example:

Download the png version, and the gif version of the following image:

Idea Animated Icon | Free electronics Animated Icon

Add both images to your bOS, under files, images

Go to your theme, to a lamp for example, and set the png as Image, and the gif as ImageOn. You'll have to set your control to manual instead of automatic, so you can see the extra status configuration.

Obviously this is a quick example, and don't pay attention to the bad result (because the gif sucks), but as you can see you can set a still image, and an animated status to the same control depending on your needs.

The best would be to find a cool animated SVG and extract a still image so you can have both still and animated versions, because usually plain gifs suck.

Best regards
