We are using mdashboard in order to display dynamic data into some gauges.  
It works fine for the dynamic data value sent in msg.payload.  
I mean that thanks to socketid management we are able to have the same gauge (mdashboard gauge) to display different data values for differents clients connected on the mdashboard at the same time.

But we have an issue with the data sent in "msg.ui\_control" (to control the gauge widget); For this type of data when updated, it is brodacasted to each client.  
Hence when a client updated his ui control data, then all other connected client, will have their ui\_control for the gauge updated.  
How to solve this problem?
