Finally! Marks on the fuel guage. Thank you. It works well in NYGM 2.3 also.

Just minor note, I think you're up one mark to high.

The top of the float, is what you look at (not the body of the float or the bottom of it). Without realizing that, it makes the guage misleading. Match that to the top of the line ive drawn. Ive never liked that gauge honestly. Its abit more tolerable to me with other lines.

To get the marks what i did, was run the tell i had 3/4's fuel left, and at 1/2 fuel left using the other CE gauge ive included that is far far more accurate then the slideout. Taking a screenshot at both times of the slideout guage. Then i loaded the slide gauge and the screenshots i took t into the gimp, ran a comparison, and marked the lines. Im confident that they are fairly accurate. But again, its the top of the float that is the real measuring point.
Just checked and your 50% mark is correct on the slide-out gauge. The little marks in the white section are off. With 19 marks, one would think that the middle one would be 50% but it isn't. LOL

Thank you again for adding these marks, it's going to be so much easier reporting my fuel levels now.
