Perhaps something like you shared some time ago:
I can work around it now by just showing the icons on the top or bottom of the graph, because all datapoints are from 0 to 23, but I thought it would be cool to let them follow the line.

Ah, yes, of course. I actually read about it when I started with DS. But I got used to using the label bold option in the UI ![]()
Ah, that was an image that another user wanted to incorporate in a image widget. The data format / structure you showed, is this something you made up yourself? Or is this something you can retrieve from an api somewhere? If you made it up yourself, how are you planning to generate this data?
OpenWeatherMap already has shares this data via the API. So I use that to point to the downloaded local images on DS. But I can imagine other purposes as well, like energy graphs that show what caused spikes (dishwasher running)
I shall take a look at if I can support the openWeatherMap format.
Can you sketch how you would like to use this in a user friendly way? Like without the need of the usage of Homeyscripts. Like just how an insight card is converted to to a Dashboard studio format way without the need for the user to alter the raw data. For example in your situation, how would you like to add your dishwasher energy spike icon to a graph.
Hello, I am new with Dashboard Studio. What a wonderfull app. Just what I need. I have made some gauges and text. Is it possible to have a text showing the reading of temerature sensor, so not the gauge, but only a textfield? And that the text colors with the reading, like a gauge?
You can basically any setting dynamic Cor. You could use a label / text widget to show a value from Homey, just click the chainlink icon above the setting you want dynamic and fill in a topic. You can send values from a flow to that topic, or you can enable a capability in the Homey Dashboard Studio settings and use that topic to show the value directly.
You can also use the graph widget in style none if you want keeping the graph widget because of the āShorten Values (k, M)ā or āunitsā:
This way you have removed the graph. Just the textfield, value, unit and icon. But if you empty the icon you are left with only the textfield and⦠Well⦠you can remove anything you want (except for the value at this moment, but you could set the font size to 0)
Like text settings, you can make colors also dynamic:
It accepts any css compatible color code. You can use this website to look color codes up and send it to the topic inside a Homey flow to change the color based on a sensor value or something.
Thanks for the advice. I will try it tomorrow
Hi,
Needed a gauge without icon. I thought leaving the icon class empty should do the tric. And it works but after saving and reloading the page, the field is filled with ph-fan and a fan is shown.
The OpenWeatherMaps app in Homey is actually quite nasty to use. You first need to create a collector device and after that a device per hour or per day for each hour/day you want to show.
Each device contains all data for that specific hour/day.
I have now created a simple Homey Script to convert the data to json for each metric.
Alternatively you can also configure the json in an Advanced flow. And I think I could have also done a similar thing by creating a virtual device with Device capabilities. For me that was too much clicking. But a script was much easier from a configuration point of view.
This is quite specifc of course for OpenWeatherMap. You can nowaday use the basis OWM for free or the more advanced version with a free limit of 1000 requests per day. So if you use that version you have to setup a payment option, but if you stay below the 1000 requests it is stil free.
More generic I would say that you can use an advanced flow to create the json with data from different sources, based on timestamps or something like that. But this could be quite an interesting advanced flow to map timestamps etc.
It could even be as simple as showing happy smileys if the price is low and sad ones when the price is high.
That should do the trick. ![]()
The demo page has several examples without icons:
Just by emptying the icon. What happens when you just add an empty space and save it?
It stays empty. So it works but isānt it a bug?
I can not recreate the problem though. When I:
So it works as expected? ![]()
If these steps do not work for you, please tell me what operating system you are running and what browser.
I named my group and than it get automaticly (2) behind it, so I searched where I had used that name also, I couldnāt remind it anymore. And of course it was there, but then I had to find the page where I had used that name. So therefore I saw this.
Firefox on windows 11 with version 1.6.3 of your excellent app.
Didnāt mention it was a gauge with an icon (not the fan) created back in 1.4
Folowing your steps worked fine.
Btw canāt find the homey selection when starting from your demo dashboard
Forget the last remark. Found it under platform connection.
I ran into similar āissueā with OWM. I made a Homeyscript with OpenMeteo. You donāt need to make an account with them, they just have an open API which provides a lot of dataā¦
true, but I wanted to do some hourly and daily forecasting as well.
As long as you set a limit to the 1000 free requests per day there is no issue
Iāve created a flow that sets a variable to a colour value in hex, e.g. #F52800
How can I now link that variable to the colour of a text field?
And how can I make a text bold? I donāt see a field for that.
