===== Usage =====

  - [[:xfce:xfce4-panel:add-new-items|Add the plugin to the panel]].
  - Right-click on the added plugin, select **Properties** to open the settings window.  

You can specify the color you want the text to appear, rename the sensor so that the tooltip displays the new name. 

You can also display your values graphically, meaning they are displayed by bars. For those bars, you can specify min and max values which result in red colored bars, when those min or max values are reached.

If you don't like the green bars, you can check to display colored bars, thus using the color values specified for each sensor.
