The `group` platform can create a cover that combines several cover entities into one.
|
|
|
|
To enable `Cover Groups` in your installation, add the following to your `configuration.yaml` file:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
# Example configuration.yaml entry
|
|
cover:
|
|
- platform: group
|
|
entities:
|
|
- cover.hall_window
|
|
- cover.living_room_window
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
{% configuration %}
|
|
entities:
|

|

{% endconfiguration %}

## Functionality
|
|
|
|
It works best if you group covers with the same supported features together (like support for `open`/`close`/`stop`/`position`/`tilt controls`), but is not limited to it. In case you have bundled covers with different features together, the controls will only affect those covers that support the actions.
