Generic Airspeed Adjustable by Russ Barlow

Russ,
I've cloned your Generic Airspeed dial and following what i believe to be the obvious, in where you allow customizing values to change the graphic on the airspeed dial.

I'm not having any success. i.e. in the following code:

Code: Select all

--  End of White Arc
flaps_prop = user_prop_add_integer("End White Arc", 20, 260, 110, "Enter end (highest value) of white arc (Vfe)")
local white_end = user_prop_get(flaps_prop)
where i have the 110, that should change the end of the white arc at 110? correct? I'm just guessing here.

but any value I change is not reflected in the airspeed dial graphic.

let me know what other information i can provide.
thank you,
Dave

Hi

In Russ's instrument, all the properties are available in the instrument's properties panel. There is no need to modify the code.

To do this, create simply a panel in the Home tab, and add Russ's gauge.
You'll find all the parameters you need.

:) thanks for pointing out what should have been obvious!! but for me obviously it was not !! ;)

I never thought to look at the instrument properties!! was just so focused on the code. glad I don't have to mess with that!

thanks again and I appreciate the quick response too!

Cheers!
Dave
