Auto-detection (v4): Since v4, cover type is inferred from the cover entity's HA device_class at creation time. awning → Horizontal; shutter / curtain / shade → Vertical; blind triggers a disambiguation prompt (roller vs. venetian); garage / gate / door / damper are rejected as unsupported. You can still override the inferred type during the disambiguation step if needed.

Note				Single HA entity with both set_cover_position and set_cover_tilt_position. See Venetian Blinds for hardware compatibility and migration from paired instances.

A variant of the horizontal awning whose arm sweeps through an arc as it opens, so the fabric angle is a function of the open percentage rather than a fixed value (e.g. Somfy PositionableScreen). Choose Oscillating awning (drop-arm) in the cover-type picker. See Oscillating Awning for the geometry parameters and the angle-vs-position model.
