Index UV - Color Changer

[PtitChat107]

After the discovery of this topic on the change of color that can be applied to a bar, I decided to apply it to my own skin but only concerning the UV index.
So I declare the list of colors to use in the lua file but I always get this green color and I do not understand where my error may come from.

I simplify this to the maximum so that it is more comprehensible but despite that I still do not understand.

A question: What should this script do?

[PtitChat107]

It should simply retrieve the "UV index" data and change the color of the bar (between 0 and 10) according to the data stored in the lua file.

[balala]

First of all, you should try to fix the name of the colorBar option of the [meterBarIndexUV] meter. Correctly this option is BarColor, not colorBar.

Same result, always this green color

To be honest I couldn't get the lua script to work properly. So, please pack the whole config and upload it, maybe this way I'll be able to test it.

[PtitChat107]

I had to change the coordinates gps to be able to test with different UV indexes but it seems that the green color becomes lightened when the index increases; Except that there is no green color in the lua file (finally not totally) !

Just remove the # characters from the BarColor option of the [meterBarIndexUV] meter: BarColor=[measureW1Lua] (instead of the existing BarColor=[color=#FF0000]#[/color][measureW1Lua][color=#FF0000]#[/color]). They are not needed, because the [measureW1Lua] Script measure returns the proper color code.
