Gauge Chart Properties

GaugeBackgroundStyle

When the GraphType property is set to 110 (gauge chart), this property selects the gauge's background style.

DATA TYPE:

integer

RANGE:

0...11

DEFAULT:

1

SYNTAX:

void setGaugeBackgroundStyle (int newValue);
int getGaugeBackgroundStyle()

EXAMPLE:

setGraphType(110);
setGaugeBackgroundStyle(5);
setDisplay(getFrame(), false);

setGaugeBackgroundStyle(2);
setDisplay(getFrame(), false);

GaugeDescending

When the GraphType property is set to 110 (gauge chart), this property defines how gauge bands are drawn.

DATA TYPE:

boolean

RANGE:

true / false; true = Draw in descending order, false = Draw in ascending order

DEFAULT:

false

SYNTAX:

void setGaugeDescending(boolean newValue);
boolean getGaugeDescending();

GaugeIgnoreBackgroundStyle

When the GraphType property is set to 110 (gauge chart), this property enables (true) / disables (false) the GaugeBackgroundStyle property.

DATA TYPE:

boolean

RANGE:

true = Do not use GaugeBackgroundStyle, false = Use GaugeBackgroundStyle

DEFAULT:

false

SYNTAX:

void setGaugeIgnoreBackgroundStyle(boolean newValue);
boolean getIgnoreBackgroundStyle();

GaugeMajorAutoStep

When the GraphType property is set to 110 (gauge chart), this property controls automatic calculation of the number of major grid steps. When automatic calculation is disabled (false), Y1MajorGridStep defines the number of major grid steps.

DATA TYPE:

boolean

RANGE:

true = automatically calculate, false = Use major grid steps set by Y1MajorGridStep

DEFAULT:

false

SYNTAX:

void setGaugeMajorAutoStep(boolean newValue);
boolean getGaugeMajorAutoStep();

EXAMPLE:

setGraphType(110);
setGaugeMajorAutoStep(false);
setDisplay(getFrame(), false);
setY1MajorGridStep(5.0);

GaugeMajorTickRelativeTickLength

When the GraphType property is set to 110 (gauge chart), this property defines the relative length of major tick marks.

DATA TYPE:

double

RANGE:

0.0...0.5

DEFAULT:

0.1

SYNTAX:

void setGaugeMajorTickRelativeTickLength (int newValue);
int getGaugeMajorTickRelativeTickLength()

EXAMPLE:

setGraphType(110);
setGaugeBackgroundStyle(3);
setDisplay(getFrame(), false);
setGaugeMajorTickRelativeTickLength(0.2);

setGaugeBackgroundStyle(3);
setDisplay(getFrame(), false);
setGaugeMajorTickRelativeTickLength(0.4);

GaugeMinorAutoStep

When the GraphType property is set to 110 (gauge chart), this property controls automatic calculation of the number of minor grid steps. When automatic calculation is disabled (false), Y1MinorGridStep defines the number of minor grid steps.

DATA TYPE:

boolean

RANGE:

true / false; true = automatically calculate the number of major grid steps, false = Use the number of minor grid steps set by the Y1MinorGridStep property

DEFAULT:

false

SYNTAX:

void setGaugeMinorAutoStep(boolean newValue);
boolean getGaugeMinorAutoStep();

GaugeMinorTickRelativeTickLength

When the GraphType property is set to 110 (gauge chart), this property defines the relative length of minor tick marks.

DATA TYPE:

double

RANGE:

0.0...0.5

DEFAULT:

0.1

SYNTAX:

setGaugeMinorTickRelativeTickLength(double newValue);
double getGaugeMinorTickRelativeTickLength()

EXAMPLE:

setGraphType(110);
setGaugeBackgroundStyle(6);
setDisplay(getFrame(), false);
setGaugeMinorTickRelativeTickLength(0.4);

GaugeNeedleStyle

When the GraphType property is set to 110 (gauge chart), this property selects the gauge's needle style.

DATA TYPE:

integer

RANGE:

0...5

DEFAULT:

2

SYNTAX:

setGaugeNeedleStyle (int newValue);
int getGaugeNeedleStyle()

EXAMPLE:

setGraphType(110);
setGaugeBackgroundStyle(7);
setDisplay(getFrame(), false);
setGaugeNeedleStyle(0);

setGaugeBackgroundStyle(7);
setDisplay(getFrame(), false);
setGaugeNeedleStyle(1);

GaugeRelativeInnerRadius

When the GraphType property is set to 110 (gauge chart), this property defines the inner radius of the gauge bands and lables relative to the gauge's outer background. Smaller numbers place the inner radius closer to the center of the gauge.

DATA TYPE:

double

RANGE:

0.0...0.9

DEFAULT:

0.6

SYNTAX:

void setGaugeRelativeInnerRadius(double newValue);
double getGaugeRelativeInnerRadius()

EXAMPLE:

setGraphType(110);
setGaugeBackgroundStyle(6);
setDisplay(getFrame(), false);
setGaugeRelativeInnerRadius(0.4);

setGaugeBackgroundStyle(6);
setDisplay(getFrame(), false);
setGaugeRelativeInnerRadius(0.9);

GaugeRelativeThickness

When the GraphType property is set to 110 (gauge chart), this property selects the relative thickness of the gauge bands.

DATA TYPE:

double

RANGE:

0.0...0.7

DEFAULT:

0.1

SYNTAX:

void setGaugeRelativeThickness(double newValue);
double getGaugeRelativeThickness()

EXAMPLE:

setGraphType(110);
setGaugeRelativeThickness(0.15);

GaugeStartAngle

When the GraphType property is set to 110 (gauge chart), this property selects the gauge's start angle.

DATA TYPE:

double

0...359

DEFAULT:

220

SYNTAX:

DATA TYPE:

integer

RANGE:

0...359

DEFAULT:

320

SYNTAX:

void setGaugeStopAngle (int newValue);
int getGaugeStopAngle()
