    I love this forum topic.  I've learned so much over the last two years or so of membership.  Thank you all who have posted not only an image of your creations, but loadable files and source files of your creations.  Some of you have even gone the extra mile and given tips and examples to us noobs.  You have truely taken the name of this forum topic to heart 'Share your SensorPanel'.

    I have no intention of turning into the topic police force, but I do have some things to put out to the community.   I also don't want to turn this into a debate topic either.  Please don't take offense.  That is not my intention.  All I can do is suggest and request politely.  I can't make anyone do anything.

    I want to encourage those posters to include their sensorpanel and supporting files if possible in the same post, at least the font files if you use non-Windows 7/10/11 standard fonts.  Also please state the resolution of your panel.  While sadly some only post a static image of their creation, I understand and they have every right to do so.  That static image alone can inspire us.  Please state in your post that you chose not to release the sensorpanel or source files.  That should stop pointless multiple request posts and keep straggling posts to a minimum.  

    For those panels that don't fit your display and you want the poster to resize/re-orientate, please contact the poster privately.  You are in effect asking them to do contract work and that is a private matter anyway.  If you and the author want to then post the new size/re-orientated panel, please do.  Which leads me to the meat of this post.  

    Lately I've started seeing a disturbing trend that is now beginning to be an irritation.  There are several individuals now posting on a daily basis, sometimes more than daily, essentially sales ads for their already created sensorpanels or contract work for creating custom panels.  While there is a legitimate need for their services by some and they have every right to charge for their knowledge or talent, this is not the forum topic for that.    

    At currently 370 pages for this topic, two to five sales posts a day can only make a huge forum topic even less friendly for a new comers and veterans alike and violates the spirit and letter of the name of the topic.  Right now it appears three of the four top posters are directly engaging in commercially advertising their panels or contract work with two of them only posting sales ads.    

    Understand I am not promoting 'stealing' someone else's work, giving no credit and claiming it's yours for reputation or profit.  That is just WRONG.  But if you choose to go commercial, don't flood a free sharing and learning source site with your sales posts.  That's wrong too.  More appropriate I think is a new forum topic that specifically provides a forum for your offers.  Please contact the forum administrators to initiate such a topic. 

    I think a thread titled "sell your sensorpanel" would be appropriate.

    No, there is no preview function for sensor panel files. You need to import them to see how that panel looks like. I hope this is in developement and can be added in a new Aida64 version.

    Agreed, I already posted a feature suggestion that they have a separate panel editor program.

    So, I've scrolled through all 3XX pages... Has anyone made any 4K themes? I'm using my 65" TV thats mounted on the wall next to my desk as my monitor for temps etc.

    Sounds like a waste of system resources, but you do you :P

    Sorry, but i dont care and i dont download these files again, just to extract them. If i get a warning message from my webbrowser (first time ever since years btw.) i delete the files instantly without open them and scan my pc. Maybe it is a real virus/maleware or a possible false-positive detection.

    Good practice, Virus Total also does an awesome job of scanning pre-download. If these files had an infection they have been cleaned.

    I loved it, it was very nice and very clean. Could you please explain why you created 30 circles?

    Read back a bit. He had a long conversation with others about using multiple graphs and transparency to achieve a greater level of gauge specificity.

    Hi, can we have more than 16 images in the custom, if so how do we do it ?

    Layer multiple gauges on top of each other with transparencies. Have each gauge handle a portion of the range.

    Just starting to look into this whole rabbit hole of sensor panels. Where is a good place to get a panel and a reasonable price for these? Everything I've found seems to either be from sketchy sites, or literally just naked panels with exposed driver boards, no enclosures.

    The nakey boards are what you are going for :) waveshare has some nice ones and I have purchased several from them. Also elecrow.

    its such a shame that every thing in this awsome program depend on desktop scailing

    evey thing fall apart if you use another scailing amount .i made that with a 3440x1440 monitor at 175% scailing when i wanted to test it on my LG C1 65 TV everything went wronge so i rearrange it for 300% scailing.i will put the 300% scailed version next time

    That's "display scaling" and it affects everything.

    You should probably make your own thread for this.

    If anyone wants to pretty this up without subtracting any content, I will offer the best design $50 US to the winner for the sensor panel files sent to me privately for exclusive use.  The winners work will not be shared or sold with anyone else.

    Question though -- I've seen a few recent posts here where there's a loading screen animation before the panel shows.  Has anyone got a guide on how to do it yet? I've seen a few people asking for details but have not as of yet seen any guide or info on what to actually do?

    Many thanks in advance

    It's not Aida doing it, maybe a screensaver or some other program.
