Gauge node not displaying label

Hi, I've entered a name in the label field of a gauge node but it does not display in the UI when there is a data value in the value format field ie: {{payload.data.dps.20}}. If the value format field is left as default {{value}} it does display the lable...is this a bug ??

I think the payload you send it only needs the value (number).

I'm not sure the gauge supports what you are sending it.

For the sake of it, just put an inject node and make it inject..... 30 (given that the range is greater than 30 for the gauge) and see what happens.

The gauge does not like 20 as a property name in dot notation.
try
{{msg.payload.data.dps[20]}}

Not to detract from what @E1cid said, but I'm confused.

Why/how is your message made to be {{payload.data.dps.20}}?
(Ok and it doesn't work)

Be it you change it to {{msg.payload.data.dps[20]}} or simply 20.... You are going to have to change the message's format.

Hi, thank you for your reply. The 20 is not a number but part of the dot notation. However, I did try as you suggested but it threw errors...

Does an inject node with simply with 20 (number) work?

The result does work and the gauge shows correct represenation of the value...only the label is not working on the UI screen..

please supply the flow and the input data.
[edit] Your original post you are missing the msg. at the beginning.

Ok, suggestion:
Change the entire message's format.

Rather than {{msg.payload.data.dps.20}} make the message:
{{msg.payload:20,"name":"data"}}

Then in the gauge put/leave {{value}} where it is, and put {{name}} in the units field.
That may work better.

But as @E1cid said, it may be better to post that part of the flow.

You should put the payload also in the </> format.

Yikes, that is a complex message.

But - just putting it out there....

A change node would work for you.
You send that into it and extract (move?) the desired values to new parts of the message (NOT the payload) and send it into the gauge with the correct/needed values ({{ }}) to parse the needed parts of the message.

Hi, thanks for your reply. I never removed the dot {{payload.data.dps.[17]}} and removing the dot by copying your example correctly this time {{payload.data.dps[17]}} worked.
Many thanks for your help with the correct solution...must open my eyes better next time LOL....

Hi, thanks for your help trying_to_learn and the solution offered by El Cid works for me. Really appreciate your help with the solution...

All good.

The main thing is you worked out the problem. That's the important thing.

Good luck in the future.
