Add feature to allow low/zero energy consumers to be [automatically] hidden

[kzajac83]

Have added some collectors of energy that working only temporary, few time per quarter or even rare and mostly will show zero like 3 top positions on picture below How to disable entity with 0 kWh ?

Ok, that would be a new feature.

I understand what you say to mean you would like the ability to hide energy consumers when the consumption is very small or zero. Is that correct?

[kzajac83]

Yes, you are correct.

But maybe to be more universe and flexible functionality propose add global filter option as edit field where you put minimum value of energy assigned to entice that will be showed. By default should "0" that nothing change relating to current solution. When you put eg. "0.001" (in my cause UoM kWh) then all below 0.001 kWh will be not displayed.

I see also more complex solution where:
a) list all counted into energy Sankey Energy chart entices and next to each item add enable / disable checkbox determining use (display) or not the entice
b) optionally as extend point a) add for each item individual minimum edit field box or just one global filter for all enabled

General any filtering possibility (limit global / individual or just disabling entices or both or other idea) is more than welcome from my perspective.

Ok, thanks for the quick feedback.

I think this makes sense for the energy graph. For the power graph, that could cause flows to disappear/reappear which could be confusing to the user.

If removing individual flows is needed, that will come anyway in future when the ability to modify the automatic config is added.

of course I propose for energy only, not power.
