I am presently using the flows below, from Automagic Catalog, to disable my WIFI when stored network SSID is unavailable and manually enable my WIFI when selected network is available.
WiFi automatically off, manually on to save battery
Premium | 09/08/2012
Flow 1 automatically disables the WiFi adapter when the WiFi network is disconnected for more than one minute.
Flow 2 shows a notification in the statusbar to enable the WiFi adapter again. Flow 1 enables Flow 2 when the network disconnects.

I would like to modify flow 1 to automatically disable the WIFI adapter when the screen is off for more than one minute. And flow 2 to show a notification in the statusbar to enable the WIFI adapter again, when screen is on. The WIFI stays on as long as the screen is on.
I would greatly appreciate advise on what to do. Thanks in advance.

Hi,

You could do something like this with following flows (untested):

Flow 1
-trigger Display State: Off
-action Sleep 1m
-action Set WiFi State: Off
-action Set Flow State: Enable Flow 3
The first flow waits one minute to turn WiFi off and to show the notification to turn it on again.

Flow 2
-trigger Display State: On
-action Stop Flows: Flow 1
Flow 2 is used to interrupt Flow 1 in case you turn on the display again within one minute.

Flow 3
-trigger Notification on Statusbar Selected...
-action Set WiFi State: On
-action Set Flow State: Disable Flow 3
You could also add another trigger WiFi State Enabled to hide the notification in case you turn WiFi on using another mechanism like a quick settings tile.

Regards,
Martin
