I modified the widget code, to edit the font size, the tick sizes, and to include the heading degrees text. I started to play around with a way to actually rotate the text as the gauge spins, the way a real heading indicator would, but was more work than I felt like putting in after a while. :) Could either implement as it's own gauge or with option flags on the compass gauge.
recommendation is to add ability to modify the compass text size. In my rough implementation I hard coded a font load in with sizes needed for 4k and 1080
