HI
I am plcaing two gauges in a form. but the gauges are overlaping. how to avoid that. Backgournd color is 'Transperant' for both bagues,
pls help
it works fine for me, using the following code...
note that this will not work in IE6, since that browser does not support PNG transparency.
<igGauge:UltraGauge ID="UltraGauge1" runat="server" style="position: absolute; left: 10px; top: 10px"> <Gauges> <igGaugeProp:RadialGauge> <Dial> <BrushElements> <igGaugeProp:SolidFillBrushElement Color="Red" /> </BrushElements> </Dial> </igGaugeProp:RadialGauge> </Gauges> </igGauge:UltraGauge> <igGauge:UltraGauge ID="UltraGauge2" runat="server" style="position: absolute; left: 20px; top: 20px"> <Gauges> <igGaugeProp:RadialGauge> <Dial> <BrushElements> <igGaugeProp:SolidFillBrushElement Color="Blue" /> </BrushElements> </Dial> </igGaugeProp:RadialGauge> </Gauges> </igGauge:UltraGauge>
hi David
Thanks for your reply. But here i am uing wingauges
unfortunately, windows forms controls have very limited support for transparency. try the same experiment with two Label controls, both of which have their BackColors set to Transparent. you will not be able to see one label behind the other.
the transparency in WinForms is sophisticated enough to respect a background color or background image on the parent form, but not enough for what you're describing.
fortunately, the UltraGauge control has a Gauges collection in which you can place multiple Gauges inside the same control, so you can get around this platform limitation by using one instance of the control to display multiple gauges.
