I originally wanted it to be a little flashier, but the minimalist look is kinda growing on me for now. Thanks again.

This animation is made with a sequence of images like GAUGES, is it used in videos, or gifs? Thank you for your help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you for your help. so the animated ones i am talking about are with gifs and such. the custom gauges that are animated with a lot of images do not work with the remote sensor panels, only with normal sensor panels. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular sensor panel - custom gauges, no arc gauges, no animated .gif files Remote sensor panel - no custom gauges, arc gauges, animated .gif files, must be displayed with a browser or needs a third party display program. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(install fonts before making changes so they stay correct after you make edits). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is not a bug, that is how the template looks in the editor (which is the same as the sensor panel editor) The black squares that say GIF are the animated gauges.

rinaldop Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 Personally I think using animated gauges is terrible. They are fake and just repeat the animation on loop forever and look the same even when the value it measures (temperature, utilization, etc.) changes. If you use animated gifs I think they should be used to be for fun stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swatgod Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 you have a good point, i have been considering redoing the gif images and making them actually work as expected. i have already been updating parts of the sensor panel recently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see how you can make an animated gif respond to a sensor. But it is not necessary. Here is a panel with identical looking gauges that actually work. The problem is that in normal use computer temperatures and utilization do not change very widely very fast so real time gauges are not going to show a lot of movement. The best thing to do is make 100% accurate gauges that change every 1 degree or 1 percent so you get the most movement possible. https://forums.aida64.com/topic/8710-new-and-updated-sensor-panel-1024x600/#comment-55787 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then, when you see it, right-click on the sensor panel, click on "Import" select your sensorpanel, and you're good to go. 😎 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
