Re: Realtime gauges v1.0.0.3 available for download
Perhaps if you explain exactly what you want to do, and give a link to an example? I didn't reply as I know you can't actually enlarge the Silverlight application itself, so I assume whatever you want to do is something to do with HTML, in which I have a basic understanding but am by no means an expert.

Re: Realtime gauges v1.0.0.3 available for download
Sorry for the bad explanation Steve. I've seen examples of this that are enlarged to nearly the same size as the background colour. So the background just appears as a border.
Typical, can't find an example at the moment

Duke, how about the following to links/locations for examples (not yet 100% reliable as I am completely/still rebuilding my house/office computer network and the server can/could be offline at times):duke wrote:Typical, can't find an example at the moment...

Re: Realtime gauges v1.0.0.3 available for download
OK, Duke...
This is the code you have in the template used to display the Silverlight RealTime screen: This is the code I have in the Weather-Blues template used to display the Silverlight RealTime screen:
Through the years, I have learned not to use a percentage value for either the width or the height of any Adobe Flash or Microsoft Silverlight file formats.
832 pixels appears (at least on the different monitors I use in my home/office) to be the minimum width of the Silverlight RealTime screen - anything less will produce the navigation bar on the right side of the object. But, it is not just a matter of adjusting the width - the height must also be adjusted or navigation bars will be produced both to the right and the bottom of the object.
If you are still unsure, here is the code I use to display this Silverlight RealTime screen:

Re: Realtime gauges v1.0.0.3 available for download
It was on my to do list to have a sneeky look at your code today .
So what was i doing wrong? The addition of this line from you code appears to be the secret:
Cumulus Realtime
Perhaps there is a way to eliminate the nav bar?
Thanks for your help with this one, I wouldn't have got their on my own .

I actually tried various % and px figures here and was unable to effect the width only the height. I try to stay with px as I found % can have all sorts of strange results not just with this type of application.Through the years, I have learned not to use a percentage value for either the width or the height

I have a maximum of 810 due to my page layout so I have a nav bar at the bottom but it looks a lot better than before832 pixels appears (at least on the different monitors I use in my home/office) to be the minimum width of the Silverlight RealTime screen

Re: Realtime gauges v1.0.0.3 available for download
Slightly off topic - but how does one get the stickers I see here into a post. Can I just put the php code directly in the post?

Re: Realtime gauges v1.0.0.3 available for download
Is there any way possible to take this and make it run as an "app" on your local PC, outside of any browser?

Re: Realtime gauges v1.0.0.3 available for download
Good question. Later versions of Silverlight did allow the creation of "out of browser" applications, but I don't think I ever got around to doing that with this. I don't think I have the ability to build the code now, as I didn't keep up the subscription for the components that it uses (it was costing me about £1000 per year) and I don't think the last version that I have a licence for will build against the current libraries.
Silverlight itself seems to be pretty much dead now, MS seem to have abandoned it in favour of HTML5.

I´m from Germany and in Germany is silverlight much dead.
I love the realtime gauges but no one can see it, because in Germany has no one silverlight on the Computer.
Please create a new Realtime gauges Version in a other Format, that would be so great.
Many thanks.
