When the “View” button to the right of the right screen is held down, it takes you to the dimmer control panel. Great feature, but unfortunately it resets the dimmer settings as well.

this is because it is a shortcut for the day after the dark mode last night

it brings the dimmers to full level so that you can see anything in the sun  
it would get to hard without that shortcut  
trust me I did it many times before I know the knob

The only thing that it brings to 100% are the touchscreens. Everything else stays the same. I understand the thinking behind it, but I wish that it was just a shortcut.

no no. it’s good like it is  
you can save dimmer settings in a scene if you need to safe them  
block everything else on recall
