I looked at the gauge in DBv2 but do not see a way to use this to create a compass. Does anyone know of a compass node/widget which has been developed for DBv2?

Try this ui-template implementation developed by @hotNipi [image] Add compass mode to DB2 gauge widget Dashboard Fixed couple more things, now it animates, takes short way to rotate over 0/360 like real life things do. Possibly I'll leave it for now as is. Hi…

That’s a great compass, thanks!

I read the link you provided but unclear about one thing… which widget do I paste the template info in the post in order to display the compass?

Ignore my previous post… I was using the wrong template widget
