Dashboard 2 gauge dynamic label assignment issue

[ncuxonama]

Hello everyone. I have the following issue. I am trying to set a dynamic lable for one of my gauges and I have read the documentation about it stating that as long as I send msg.ui_update.title with a value pair the title of the gauge will be dynamically updated. I have setup an inject node to test that out:

, but unfortunatelly it doesn't seem to work. This is the configuration of my gauge:

The flow is just straightforward inject node connected to the gauge itself.

I am not at my computer at the moment, but isn't it label rather than title?

Yes, that could do with changing to avoid confusion

This is inconsistent with other nodes, which use msg.ui_update.label. Perhaps it is just a documentation error. I have submitted an issue. Inconsistent use of msg.ui_update.title to update the label for gauge node, msg.ui_update.label is used for other nodes. · Issue #1284 · FlowFuse/node-red-dashboard · GitHub

I see. So it will be released soon, but not there yet. My mind was bugging for hours trying to make it work after even updating the dashboard to the latest version. Thanks!

Yes, I agree, it's actually an inheritance from Dashboard 1.0 which used title, rather than label. We'll support this request for sure.
