Oddly rendered image in Wind Radar Gauge

Post by woodlane »

I succesfully added the Wind Rose gauge to our website a couple of weeks ago and it worked fine after a while. Thanks to Mark, and Kerry.

The radar plot now doesn't match that in Cumulus (see attached dual image).

The Wind Rose Data from realtimegauges.txt at the time was :

"WindRoseData":"2586.1,41.4,42.9,0.0,0.0,0.0,342.0,1241.3"

I've tried it both with, and without the brackets shown by Kerry.

Has anyone any ideas ? the same occurs in IE, Chrome and Firefox.

Regards

Nick

Nick,

Try the brackets again as your realtimegauges.txt does not have them. "WindRoseData":[<#WindRoseData>]

You also have quotes around the data points; those should not be there.

Your realtimegauges.txt
"WindRoseData":"4779.0,297.7,42.9,0.0,0.0,42.9,677.3,3080.7",

should look like this:
"WindRoseData":[4779.0,297.7,42.9,0.0,0.0,42.9,677.3,3080.7],

Hi Kerry

You're a star ! I had it right originally, but changed it without realising the significance of the [[[['s and """"s.

How would you go about implementing this? I don't understand the data output to make my own gauge.

The original thread about adding a wind radar plot is here - https://cumulus.hosiene.co.uk/viewtopic.php?f=21&t=6853

But I'd wait for the next version of 2.0, be it beta or released, as this incorporates the radar as part of the package.
