When your gauges look like this

From build 3044 the development baton passed to Mark Crossley. Mark has been responsible for all the Builds since. He has made the code available on GitHub. It is Mark's hope that others will join in this development, but at the very least he welcomes your ideas for future developments (see Cumulus MX Development suggestions).

Yes gauges.js... but then? It just suddenly occurs so my guess is, it is not in gauges.js.

Your windrose data array just contains one massive number?

indeed:

Code: Select all

"WindRoseData":[52988912]
mine is like so:

Code: Select all

"WindRoseData":[0,0,13,388,1097,952,697,291,96,18,0,0,0,0,0,0],
maybe you dont like commas?

Ah... indeed.

That's a starting point :|

But thinking again: that is just sent by CMX, I don't do anything there.
And because it is in the JSON, I would say it is a CMX issue? agreed?

Ah - you were changing the number of compass rose points - it looks like you have ended up with zero!

To continue on this: my dashboard of the interface looks the same.
I did only one thing: I changed the number of windrose points setting to 8 and back again.
I'll restart CMX

OK. Restart did not help.
Setting those values from the interface does not update the values in the inifile :!:
I'll shutdown, edit manually and restart.

See my post on the other thread, it sounds like you have the old broken settings*.json files in your interface.

Set the value in the ini file with Cumulus stopped.

I'll put a catch in Cumulus for people who have overlooked the JSON file updates. ;)

Yes, I missed that one. Would have thought it to be in 3116 though.
