Custom Icons Fail to Update on Press Event

[X1Gu]

When configuring using the Entity (custom icons) option, I set two icons, but the icons don't switch when pressed. Could you please advise where the issue might be? In the keypad appearance options, I have prefer icon from plugin selected.

Hi,

The "custom icon" feature is a bit tricky because it combines the Stream Deck icon selection feature and my plugin. In general, you can think of the first icon as the "active" state and the second icon as the "inactive" state (or the other way round, I don't remember). The plugin switches between these two icons depending on the entity's state.

Since there are many different states in Home Assistant (depending on the domain) that can be interpreted as "active" or "inactive," there is a file that contains all states interpreted as active: https://github.com/cgiesche/streamdeck-homeassistant/blob/master/public/config/active-states.yml . The icon only switches if the entity's state matches one of the "active" states.

Either you found an entity whose active state is not yet in the list, or your entity does not change its state after a button press.

I originally wanted to create a light toggle button, so I selected the 'entity (custom icons)' option. Then I chose 'light' as the domain, 'toggle' as the service, and selected my light using its Chinese name as the entity. However, this prevents the icons from switching correctly. I vaguely remember this working before. Is there something wrong with my configuration? Or can I only achieve this by creating a 'Multi-Action Switch' button now?
