How to configure devices for specific rooms about homebridge-knx HOT 4 OPEN

That's also a bit unclear to me but as far as I remember associating a device with a room is part of the device setup in home bridge. With the bridge things are a bit special. It mostly works for me if I prefix the device name with the room in my knx-config.json. So if you have a bathroom light I name it Bathroom light and it automatically appears in the bathroom. Also the Bathroom prefix is not displayed anymore.

Not sure if there's a more explicit option to configure that. Would be nice though.

In that case that device "Bathroom ligh" will show up in the Default room (not Bathroom)

Sorry for the late response. Room allocation is done in Home app (or another homekit app) on the iOS device, not in the homebridge or homebridge plug-ins. If Home has become a little smarter and now proposes better room allocations it is nice.

I saw that name prefixes that are identical to the room name you place a device in are not shown any more. But there is no binding way to force Home to allocate a new device to a given room, AFAIK.
