Hi Ben
There are few bugs in the components.
Sometimes components are also available twice. One of them is better

Stefan
A strange switch is under controls. I can not change the size. A fantastic switch is under Creation.

A bad shape is under 2d shapes (color can not change), A fantastic shape is under Primitives

Logo Indicator is only 3D. Before it was in 2D also

Change from horizontal to vertical does not update bounding box corect

Change the width
Should the scala be in the middle when increasing the width? Would be better readable. And my wish would also be able to change the size of the pointer.
left So it is at the moment rigth so it would be better match to the scale

Thanks, Stefan.
The component list bugs are a hang-up from using the Beta I think. You should close Flowcode then remove the files in "%PROGRAMDATA%\MatrixTSL\FlowcodeV10" folder (or rename that folder if you want to retain a backup). When you restart Flowcode, Flowcode will repopulate this folder with defaults. It will then probably indicate updates for the libraries, which should then be downloaded. The component lists should be correct once this has all happened.
We're aware of the linear gauge/slider orientation bug and there will be a fix in the next core update.
For your final point about the scale position, I have a workaround. But this is for *advanced* feature and not intended for normal use. All gauges are based on a hidden "Gauge" primitive. This can be made available by holding the "Ctrl" key down when pressing the "Creation" component menu. If you add this to your project, it will default to a Circular Gauge, but you can change the type via a property. There are lots of other properties available too. One of those is "Scale Offset" which gives you control over the distance between the scale and the edge of the component.
Incidentally, the Gauge primitive does not suffer from the orientation bug.

Hi Steve
Deleting folders helped for switch and shape but not for the logoindicator.
Great very good. The thing with the scala is now perfect!
In the App I have to adjust a value to 100N in a range from +- 5N.
And this I have to do with a distance to the Monitor-screen about 2 Meter
Thanks a lot.
regards
Stefan

Great - thanks for letting us know.
The "Logo Indicator" component uses 3D subcomponents and can only be used on the 3D panel.

Hi Steven

Yes
can only be used on the 3D panel
In FC9 it's 2D and 3D

Maybe we can also expand with a new logo like

The "legacy" 2D panel is no longer really used in v10 and this is actually a 3D panel (it used 3D drawing technology). But good ides - perhaps we should have an equivalent 2D version.
