Normally to filter the values of QuantityType inputs, the conditions are written as
> min_value
, e.g.> 100 W
. However, when the QuantityType is a percent, writing it as> 10 %
caused the statefilter parser to think it's a $DELTA_PERCENT check instead of checking the actual input value.This is a bug and a problem, preventing the state filter from being used to filter a percent quantity type.
This PR fixes this problem by adding a new $INPUT function which can be used in this situation to help the parser, so the condition needs to be rewritten as
$INPUT > 10 %
to achieve "input-value-filter" instead of "delta-percent-filter".This should be backported to 4.3
