Hi All  
I need to dynamic change the "maxin" value for the range node.

I had a look here - [UI Widget configuration via msg.ui\_control](https://github.com/node-red/node-red-dashboard/blob/master/config-fields.md) and here - [Gauge - Dynamic](https://discourse.nodered.org/t/gauge-dynamic-min-and-max/12132/10) and i understand how that work and i can replicate the results.

I just don't see how to do the same in the range node.  
I have tried to send - msg = {range:{maxin:msg.payload}}; but it has no affect on changing the maxin range.  
Any pointers as to where to look will help.

If you look at the help fr th `range` node you will be able to see if it has any dynamically changable options. The min/max values in the range node are not dynamically settable
