Can someone provide a simple example with an inject node + change node + gauge node and modifying the label in gauge node? note a succeed to c…

What have you got Label set to in the Gauge nodes properties? [{"id":"1c2d8063.ffd98","type":"ui_gauge","z":"66c7738a.9aedd4","name":"","group":"60dbb005.0de84","order":0,"width":0,"height":0,"gtype":"gage","title":"{{topic}}","label":"units","format":"{{value}}","min":0,"max":10,"colors":["#00b500…

Hello, thanks for the example which is perfectly working. I could get my flow working now. thank you.

pretty sure the solution is in post 2 not post 3...:laughing:

sorry for "solution" in post 3. My mistake. another question, how to set automatically "units" field in gauge. I tried by sending a json {"unit":"celcuis"} in topic and I set the units field in gauge to be {{unit}} (I tried {{topic.unit}} too}} but it is not working. do you have any ideas?

As far I know, there is no any legal way to change units field on fly.

And again, I was wrong :slight_smile: [image]

I added the label setting in the below image [image] Do I have to change some setting in below screen also as changes are not reflecting in the dashboard. [image]

In the change node just set msg.label to "Hello" - then in the gauge set the Label field to {{msg.label}}

Many thanks for your reply. I changed the settings as per the suggestion [image] [image] but still the guage not showing any label. [image]

which version of dashboard are you running - it was a fairly recent update.
