Hello!
I have just started to use the WinGauge control and I am a bit uncertain about some things.
I have focused on radial gauges so far, and I have used a preset that is available in the standard windows forms 13.2 edition of the controls. The
preset that I have used is the one that shows two different needles, one showing hot/cold and one showing full/empty.
Questions:
1. Is there a way to get some sort of values printed out automatically that shows the value of the needle. ? I have seen that there are tick marks (major/minor) but I don't know if they can do more than just showing a line in different places. There are also some event "Render Label" but I don't understand how to se that.
2. Is there som way to invert the needle value scale? What I mean that depending on the left and right gauge, the needle value 15 in both these gauges gives a mirrored appearance. One needle is in the bottom, one in the top. But that is of course the radial way ;-)
Next to the needle value, there is a precision setting. How does that work.? (In the gauge designer).
Sorry for the bad writing, difficult to explain this. For me anyway ;-)

Here comes an image of the gauge i am using...
Hello,
You can set labels on the gauge to show a level of measurement and aid the needle. Most of the core functionality is exposed from the gauges > scales properties. The "RenderLabel" event will fire whenever a label is rendered on the Gauge.
For more information about lables please visit: http://help.infragistics.com/doc/WinForms/2013.2/CLR4.0/?page=WinGauge_Labels.html
The precision property snaps the needle to a certain tickmark closest to the to value; used to rounding values. For more details please visit the properties documentation.

There isn't built in functionality to invert the needle nor the labels because the Axis cannot have an EndValue higher than the StartValue. You can submit a new product idea on our ideas page at ideas.infragistics.com
Let me know if you have any questions regarding this matter.
