Hi folks  
Been playing with the artless gauge node for the dashboard. I can’t seem to get it centered horizontally though. The regular gauge centers ok but not the artless one. Any ideas? Thanks.

How many units is the group width and what is the size of gauge?

Gauge size and group width are both 7. I attach a screen grab of both gauges to showctge difference.

May be you fell into that trouble - the artless-gauge cant be configured anything but into square layout (if radial). Means that if you configure 4x7 it will forced to be 4x4. (based on smallest)

Solved: That looks like the case. Needed a square layout after all. Thanks for that.
