In Premise Browser, you can see the status of all Lights in a room in one glance because each Light displays it name and state.

For whatever reason, this convenience does not extend to Appliance objects like Pumps and Coffeemakers. To display an Appliance's state, you must click it. I'm not sure if this was by design or due to an oversight but there's an easy way to fix it.

To enable Appliances to display their state, just like Lights, you simply need to copy one function.

In Premise Builder, click Modules and navigate to:
Modules > Plugins > Selectors > Lights > ShowStatus

Copy ShowStatus to:
Modules > Plugins > Selectors > Appliance > ShowStatus

This works because ShowStatus displays an object's PowerState property and both Lights and Appliances have a PowerState property.
