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 

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.

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...
