    Good evening.

    My question is pretty simple: how do I make a working dashboard? And how do I set up what information the dashboard shows?

    Thanks in advance!

    Needles sweeping a dial or digital gauges showing digits?

    I have a question about the new dashboard system

    For all the data having numbers you can use a single dashboard object and material.
    Concerning leds, and rpm bars, can you use the same material, for all dash elements?
    Or it is better to have one material for each leds?
    Also for leds how can we set the timing where they appear (at mid rpm or max rpm), is it in the animation section of the material in 3dsimed? Like for the animation of the starting lights.

    For the new dashboard system, I saw we can have horizontal or vertical readouts for fuel or rpm. Is doable to have one like f1 cars had in the 90s, a curve going from bottom-left to the upper-right part of the screen. See the Dallara 191 by ASR, the rpm curve is the way I am talking about.

    Thanks
