I'd suggest you take a look at the demo pages linked to on my 'announcement' post viewtopic.php?f=21&t=7186

These pages contain just about the minimum code required to display each gauge type (Radial and Linear). Once you have figured out the basics of displaying gauges, then you need to create the code to use data from Cumulus.

I doubt anyone is going to create a how-to guide for complete novices as it would be quite a task. So it is going to be figuring out for yourself - a good learning opportunity ;)

Why do I have impression that your big eye is pointing on me??? :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

But seriously, I look forward to having the time to give some works for that,
as many template users want to install SS! And I haven't time to play with them!! :?

Regards,
Jacques
