Chart cloud base

Post by MeteoBisignano »

Hi guys seen that returns the WebTAG cumulus cloud base had thought of implementing it in the section of cumulus trends.php but I noticed that in the / images lack the basic files for the creation of the graph. Someone could show me how to act in order to have the graph of cloud base in this section:

Not possible in Cumulus 1 which you are using. You have to be using the Beta version of Cumulus MX.

Guys thank you all for the valuable clarifications
But if I install new dashboard in 2.5.5 with the dial of cloud base it will work? If I do try to cumulus 2 .txt files in the folder WEBSERVER?

I just saw on this website that the mini chart cloud base also works with version 1.9.4 of cumulus: http://cloudyskies.uk/spireweather/gauges.htm

No, he is using the pressure graph, which is the default if the cloud base graph is not used.

As you cannot access the MX section of the forum I have attached the MySQL version of the static pop-up graphs. You could just use the cloud base graph from the set.

Thanks Marck always friendly
I look at the situation and think about
Obtaining the graph Archivo can implement the new instrument panel with dials 2.5.5 cloud base that goes to call the above graph?

Yes, if you look at my gauges page you will see I use that cloud base graph for my cloud base gauge. As I am now running Cumulus MX full time, I do not have any Cumulus generated 'static' graphs.

Thanks Marck. In the afternoon I installed the new version of the dashboard 2.5.5
I wanted to ask if it was possible to replace the background of the quadrant "Direction of the Wind" with an image representing a mini wind rose
Congratulations on the fantastic work
My dashboard is raggiunginile here:

PS for now around the problem of the graph cloud base by inserting a picture instead of the graph

Not quite sure I understand what you mean, but for the wind direction gauge, try adding the initialisation parameter

EDIT: around line 1810

Code: Select all

params.roseVisible = true;
EDIT: And also set the 'config' parameter on line 58 to false...

Code: Select all

showRoseOnDirGauge: false,

I intend to change the background of this quadrant and insert a new image such as a compass

You're on your own with that one - that gauge is a bit of mash up to begin with, it is not a 'real' gauge from the library at all.

It doesn't have a background image to change, you will have to add one yourself. It looks like RGraph supports 'watermarks' which may be what you are after...
