How to add current value inside Gauge

Using the gauge widget works good, and the current value shows up below the gauge. But I've seen articles where the value is shown inside the gauge, not below it. It that possible to do? If so, how?

I do really like the ability of applying colors to ranges of the gauge's values. I'm plotting Air Quality AQI numbers and this works really well for that.

Thanks,

Rick

You can create your own custom gauges using Javascript plugins. Note that these are not shareable on public views of a channel, though, for security reasons.

When you are signed in to ThingSpeak, click Apps > Plugins > New and select "Google Gauge". Then modify the HTML, CSS and Javascript as necessary.
