How do I get a scene to update %BATT for button or text box?

[Jean Dowe]

It only generates the value on scene load. After that, it doesn't seem to change even if the battery level does.

Guessing you have to create a new profile that recreates the scene every time the "Battery changed" context is true.

Correct, only you do not have to recreate the scene, just use the action / scene / element text

Thanks, working. I was confused because I have another scene that updates %WIN on it's own. No element text change needed. Strange that %BATT requires another profile/task to update an existing scene using it.

I think that's are some variables that are monitored and others not. Tasker help files tells you which is which.
