I have created a group > Light Group and added two Hue bulbs connected to Z2M. In lovelace I have added a card to control the group and enabled the temperature control. But the temp control is not displayed.

All the forum content I have found is from 2021 and refers to a creating a "light group" rather than a group with lights in it. I believe that is what I have done but it does not work.

Is this a bug that I need to file or do I need to create this Light Group directly in YAML instead of the Devices > Helpers section?

#groups #lights #light_groups

All the bulbs in the group have to support a feature for it to be active. If you add a bulb that doesn’t support a feature, I seem to remember that feature not being enabled for the group.

#

Actually, no. I’m wrong. The group gets created with whatever features the bulbs have. In this group, I have a plain bulb (no color, no temp) with a color bulb and I get all the features.

DOH, my mistake. The hue bulbs I have in there are single colour!
