Apologies if this is a dumb question, but is there a relatively easy way for me to change my rainfall gauge from what I've got:
To this type:
I don't like the black LED's over the dark gray background.
Any help would be appreciated! Thanks.

Re: How to Change Gauge Type
I think you probably want to change
to
in gauges.js
Code: Select all
var g_rainUseSectionColours = false; // Only one of these colour options should be true
var g_rainUseGradientColours = false; // Set both to false to use the pointer colour
Code: Select all
var g_rainUseSectionColours = false; // Only one of these colour options should be true
var g_rainUseGradientColours = true; // Set both to false to use the pointer colour

Re: How to Change Gauge Type
Yes, with setting both those values to false, the gauge is using the pointer colour (as it says in the comments) - which you have set to Black. The default is SectionColours = true, but if you want the effect in your image, Steve suggestion is correct.
