Hi Bob, 
You certainly may! 
I can easily add an indoor temperature chart. I will also add some prompts to the installer which allows you to switch off certain sensors like VPD. Give me a few days as I am on the move at the moment.
Regards

Hi Ian (if I may!),
Love the new console emulator.  It does exactly what I was trying to do with a display using the Steel Series gauges, but it looks much nicer as a console.  The only issue I have is in the charts.  I would prefer a chart of the indoor temperature, and I don’t really need the VPD.  I’ve been looking at how to do that. It doesn’t seem like there would be anyway except by modifying the python code, and I am a bit  hesitant on tackling that, as I got a little lost in the code.  It doesn’t seem like there is anything that can be done in the skin.conf, or am I missing something?

Thanks,
Bob Clare

weewx-ecowitt_console_emulator — a realtime Ecowitt console emulator skin for WeeWX 5

A full-screen, landscape dashboard for a wall or desk tablet, laid out like the Ecowitt WH2560 / HP2560 console, in a choice of navy-blue, black or white palettes: outdoor temperature ring, wind dial, selectable temperature/humidity channel, soil moisture / leaf wetness and lightning line, leak indicators, PM2.5 and CO₂, sun arc and moon phase, rain (traditional or piezo), and barometer with 3-hour trend and a pressure-tendency forecast (a moon replaces the sun between sunset and sunrise). The sky panel has a sun arc and, inside it, a moon track with moonrise/moonset times; the moon is worked out in the browser for the station's position, so WeeWX doesn't need the ephem package. The readings row includes VPD, always in kPa. Like the console, signal bars sit next to each reading and a battery icon only appears when a battery is low. 30 different language translations. and 6 units group settings.

Although primarily formatted for a tablet device, layout is responsive to any screen size from a mobile phone to a large format screen.

It works with any WeeWX 5 station fed by an Ecowitt gateway or console, whatever driver brings the data in. It needs no other extension: the skin has its own database, its own live-data service and its own chart data.

If the weewx-EcowittGateway driver/service happens to be installed, the skin also makes use of what it provides: its ecwLoop.json live file, its rain_source setting, and the extra fields it adds (10-minute wind direction, max daily gust, feels-like, the second rain gauge in p_rain, sensor batteries and signal). Without it the skin uses its own live file and works the extras out itself (see Fields). Only the sensors you actually have are shown.
