On the second picture,on the edge of lambda gauge you can see two arrows.Gray one is for AFRtgt and yellow one is for knock level
Re: The official "Post your custom-from-scratch dash" thread
here is my dashboard, it is for my supercharged mk2 golf.
i've made a background with the round borders of the gauges and some custom text, i've used custom fonts, and from there the rest was easy.
use it on 1024x768 fullscreen mode in tunerstudio , i've made it for my 7" tft display.
here you have it the archive contains the background image, custom fonts, and the *.dash file.

That AFR and target AFR gauge idea is funky!
Re: The official "Post your custom-from-scratch dash" thread
Yeah, that's a nice one!
I have 2 regular number gauges with colour. (Green, Yellow and Red for the different areas where I feel it's ok under boost).
If one is green, the other should be as well

Re: The official "Post your custom-from-scratch dash" thread
I've been revamping the dash for a while now, as I'm planning to put a tablet PC in my car as the dash...latest screen cap & dash file below...It's got some weird issues with output channels, so YMMV.

I've done some changes to the Slimfull dashboard too. Here's te result :
I like the three histograms. Really useful when tuning idle, boost and EGO control.

LOL that "Danger to Manifold!" field cracked me up.
Re: The official "Post your custom-from-scratch dash" thread
Just made mine. Could use a new color scheme.

Here is my "work in progress" dashboard. The colors still need some work, but I'm happy with the info presented.

Re: The official "Post your custom-from-scratch dash" thread
I just got signed up for the forum but have been browsing for years. I've had a MegaSquirt on my Buick since 2009, and on my Thunderbird I think in 2008.
I've contemplated going to a digital dash on my '77 Skylark behind the stock dash cluster trim. This is just playing around against the laptop screen.

"Hey, at least the Skylark proves that even a messy hack can patch together a reliable EFI system. I can't think of a time the MegaSquirt has left me stranded since installation ~100,000 miles ago."

Re: The official "Post your custom-from-scratch dash" thread
Now that, sir, is awesome! Would you try to find an lcd with the right size to fit behind the gauges? And run it as a primary or secondary monitor?

Re: The official "Post your custom-from-scratch dash" thread
Would be cool if TS could support a second screen. Then you could have the static gauges on the second monitor and still tune with the primary screen
