hello,
for an project i need a gauge which will have 5 colors, lets say 0-20 red, 20-40 yellow, 40-60 green, 60-80 yellow again and 80-100% red again. the standard gauge only supports 3 colors and i have no idea if it is possible to edit the standard gauge.

Hello Import-User-1,

I'm not sure if you are using WinCC flexible or TIA Portal, but at least in WinCC flexible (2008) there's an option in properties - general called "Dial graphic", where you can set a custom picture for the gauge circle. Now all you need to do is play a bit with MS Paint or something like that.

Hope this helps.

I don't see why people would still care about travelling salesman problem nowadays. You can simply buy stuff on the internet.

I would create own drawn gauge and use dynamic dialog connected to an external tag. PLC fills value of this tag.
