how can i reset or clear the node to process a completely new set of data and get an Mean only from the new data set?

Thanks

Doesn't look like that's possible at the moment.

A Pull Request would probably be looked on favourably.

@mogmedia - I have added the ability to reset the node by sending in a msg with a reset property of any value. (i.e. if msg.reset exists on msg) it will reset to the initial state - clear counters etc.

Hi,
Been trying to set up a max-min thermometer using node red (ESP32/DHT22/MQTT/RPi3(please bear with me, I'm new at this)).
I need a reset button for the max and min gauges, so used a button to fire a function node setting msg.reset = 1 to reset the subsequent smooth node(s). the gauges (fed by the smooth nodes) reset to a value of 1 - fine for the max gauge which reset to current temp with next mqtt message, but min gauge will have to wait until temp falls below 1, presumably!
So, what did I miss, or is there a better way, please? Thank you for your forebearance, I hope that all made sense...
(I did attach the flow, but I'd already deleted the button/function nodes, so it really wasn't edifying....)

Please ask how to questions on slack or the forum rather than on closed issues

Oops, sorry. Told you I was new at this...
