Guys, what about gauge widget with ‘0’ centered, capable of correctly displaying negatives? Current implementation isn’t friendly for negatives at all.
ALSO, what I think, gauge is EITHER too large, OR too “empty”.Personally I’d prefer SMALLER widget, perhaps with slightly scaled down scale-line. I’m not a graphics-master, so excuse me words instead graphics.
Thanks @Dmitriy for looking at topic Yes, it accepts negatives as min/max, but when set (for example) MIN: -10, MAX: +10 and the value received is +5, then the graph is created from -10 (the MIN), passing ‘zero’, and stops at +5. Not a real “zero centered” gauge display. A typical use scenario is off course an energy monitor, when during charging a current flows from circuit to battery, and the opposite during discharging. Sure, a gauge is not “a must have”, there is always a display widget… One can create even a “digital gauge” using LCD widget, but IMHO a gauge should be as real as it can be.
Other scenarios:
a pressure change indicator (drop or rise)
a level deviation indicator (can be setup as degree angle)
a voltage meter (with mcp3304 for example)
etc…
As an example: A gauge cannot be setup the way the picture ilustrates :
Yes, I figured it out, but decided to left it just with numbers. Currently this project is N/A. THEY just burned the transformer powering it (a battery pulse charger) I know… If it was possible to burn the transformer, then this was my design fault.
