Title: increasing bar graph
Post by: MimmoA on September 02, 2013, 09:39:36 AM

Hi,
is there anybody that can help me with the bar graph?
I would like to make it increases according to my RPM or pressure. I know it's easy but I'm new with the Plus +1
My display is a SD DP250.
Thank you so much.
Mimmo.

Hi Mimmo
It can be as simple or as complicated as you want.
To learn Plus1 the simple way would be to make a fixed scale bargraph.

First, find the (x,y) coordinates for both the beginning and end of the bar.

Then Scale the input from x-start to x-end, or y if you want a vertical bargraph.

Connect those scaled values to a line in the design editor, and you have a working bargraph.

Hi,

Did u get this to work? I can't manage to get my bar graph working.
Is there a way to adjust the width and height of an image?
Is it possible to adjust the color of the bargraph in a gradient way from green to green-orange to orange to red?

Thx in advance.

You could create an image with the desired gradient, place the image on the screen then place a line on top of the image. Set the width and endpoints so that the line hides the image. You can then use a signal to move one of the endpoints to reveal a portion of the image creating a bar graph effect.

This could be made as a widget to make it easily reusable.

Hi,

This is exactly what i've done. I managed to get it working ;)
Is it possible to set the coordinate system to the lower left corner instead of the upper left?

Thx in advance
