Looking for a linear gradient visualization
Howdy! I have a series of z-scores values that can range from about -3 to 3 and I want to reproduce a visualization like this:
Note that the numbers in parentheses are z-scores. Does anyone know of a visualization that can do this? I need a color gradient that displays the range of possible values, and a way to display the single value (like the big downward facing traingle in the example above, 0.26)

Hi cathoms
The Linear Gauge by MAQ looks like it meets your requirements

Yes, I've seen it but it requires more values (actual, target, min, max, etc.) than I have for my measure. I haven't figured out how to reproduce that screen capture you shared...

Hi cathoms
Wouldn't you need to spcify a max, min and actual in order to use such a visual?
Have you watched the YouTube video on the page linked to above?

Yes and yes. I manually entered the min and max as -3 to 3 but the visual showed a range from -6 to 0. I watched the video and it does not show how they produced the screen-shot version you posted. I'll just need to play around with it some more. Was hoping for a more efficient option.
