Has anyone configured the "natural light" scene that has recently become available? You can configure the on/off switch so that the natural light scene is activated, which means that over the course of the day, the light changes independently between cold and warm. To do this, however, "Time-based light" must be selected under Mode instead of Scene cycle. The only problem is that the times defined in the scene are not applied, but that the "HUE" button on the dimmer must be sacrificed in order to define the times to be defined in this scene again (regardless of the scene already stored in the room). For this purpose, the "Natural light" function must be defined instead of "Specific scene" when pressing the on/off switch. If you select "Specific scene", then you can only define 5 time-independent scenes as before, i.e. with each click on the Hue button, the next scene appears. But this makes absolutely no sense, as "Time-based light" can still be activated at the top of the mode, but this has no influence at all. My idea would actually be to activate the time-based scene with the on/off switch, but at the same time to navigate through any 5 scenes with the HUE button. However, this does not seem to work. Philips has probably pointed out that if you want to use the function via the dimmer, you also have to define the times there, which then sacrifices the 5 scenes.
