Gauge Series display values

Post by Tom » Fri Jan 21, 2005 3:39 pm

I have a gauge series reading values from 0 to 30.
I would like to change the values displayed above the gauge to fit the values I am receiving. For example values from 0 to 15 would be converted to 0 to 9 on the chart. Values from 15 to 30 would be converted to values from 0 to 60.

Any way to do this?
Thanks

Gauge Series display values

Post by Tom » Tue Jan 25, 2005 4:35 pm

Lets say the Gauge goes from 0 to 30.
I want to have the numbers say 0 ma to 30 ma
or 0 volts to 30 volts or
in my case it is like a signal strength meter for a short wave receiver.
It would have a scale S0 to S9 (for 0 to 15) and 0dB to 60dB (for 15 to 30)

Any help would be greatlt appreciated

PS a damping feature would be great but one thing at a time..

I'm afraid that this cannot be done, however this feature (allow to change the labels) has been added on our wish list to be considered for further releases.

Could you please describe the "damping" feature so I can add it on our wisht list ?

Thanks for the information.

The damping would limit the movement of the gauge to a certain speed. If the value was changing very rapidly the gauge would be damped or moving slower. Espically when the values were going back and forth between two values. If the values change real fast the pointer is just moving so fast you can't read any value. I know it is uncommon to have someone ask you to slow down something.

Thanks
