Sorry folks.
Seems I have been away from NR a bit too long.
I have just installed the new: node-red-contrib-ui-level
and it looks nice.
(I'm also kind of comparing it to the node-red-contrib-ui-lineargauge
)
Anyway: NR version 0.19.4. Dashboard version 12.14.0 (Rebooted to get it all working.)
This is the code I have made to establish a base line:

This is the screen shot. (Excuse the other stuff on the screen. It is my "test" screen at this time.)
See the red area
Ok, I'm missing something.
But reading the docs, this is what I see as the "bare minimum".
