Angular CircularGauge Properties

An object that defines configuration properties for the CircularGauge UI component.

See Also

animation

Specifies animation properties.

Type:

Object

To make your gauge "live", enable animation for it by setting the enabled property of the animation object to true. In this instance, the gauge indicators will appear in motion. In addition, within the animation object, you can set an appropriate easing mode using the easing property and specify how long the animation should run using the duration property.

$(function() {
    $("#circularGaugeContainer").dxCircularGauge({
        // ...
        animation: {
            easing: "linear",

containerBackgroundColor

Specifies the color of the parent page element.

Type:

String

Default Value: 'none'

Set this property to the color of the parent page element. Certain elements of the UI component will use this color so that they coordinate with the page. Currently, different auxiliary separators use the container background color, so there is no need to set a custom color for them.

This property supports the following colors:

disabled

Specifies whether the UI component responds to user interaction.

Type:

Boolean

Default Value: false
Cannot be used in themes.

elementAttr

Specifies the global attributes to be attached to the UI component's container element.

Type:

Object

Default Value: {}

Information on the (sub)value indicator being pressed or hovered over with the mouse pointer. Contains the type ("value-indicator" or "subvalue-indicator") and index (undefined for value indicators) fields.

Default Value: null
Cannot be used in themes.

pathModified

Notifies the UI component that it is embedded into an HTML page that uses a tag modifying the path.

Type:

Boolean

Default Value: false
Cannot be used in themes.

If you place the UI component on a page that uses a tag modifying the path (<base>, <iframe>, etc.), some of the UI component elements may get mixed up or disappear. To solve this problem, set the pathModified property to true.

See Also

rangeContainer

Specifies gauge range container properties.

Type:

Object

For the purpose of more intelligible data visualization, you can combine values into ranges and color each range differently. For instance, you can indicate the range of warm and cold temperatures. To set the ranges, assign an array of objects defining the ranges to the ranges property of the rangeContainer configuration object. In addition, you can specify the orientation of the ranges relative to an invisible scale line, and an offset from this line using the rangeContainer properties.

redrawOnResize

Specifies whether to redraw the UI component when the size of the parent browser window changes or a mobile device rotates.

Type:

Boolean

Default Value: true
Cannot be used in themes.

When this property is set to true, the UI component will be redrawn automatically in case the size of its parent window changes.

NOTE
To redraw the UI component after the size of its container has changed, call the render() method of the UI component's instance.

rtlEnabled

Switches the UI component to a right-to-left representation.

Type:

Boolean

Default Value: false
Cannot be used in themes.

When this property is set to true, the UI component text flows from right to left, and the layout of elements is reversed. To switch the entire application/site to the right-to-left representation, assign true to the rtlEnabled field of the object passed to the DevExpress.config(config) method.

JavaScript
DevExpress.config({
    rtlEnabled: true
});
NOTE
In a right-to-left representation, SVG elements have the direction attribute with the rtl value. This might cause problems when rendering left-to-right texts. Use this property if you have only right-to-left texts.

scale

Specifies a gauge's scale properties.

Type:

Object

To divide a scale, set its startValue and endValue properties. The scale's major and minor ticks will be calculated automatically. Major ticks will be shown by default. To show minor ticks, set their visible property to true. You can set custom major and minor tick intervals, show custom major and minor ticks, and format tick labels. These and other scale properties are available in the scale configuration object.

size

Specifies the UI component's size in pixels.

Type:

Object

Default Value: undefined

The UI component occupies its container's entire area by default. Use the size object to specify the UI component's size if it should be different from that of its container. Assign 0 to size object's height and width properties to hide the UI component.

subvalueIndicator

Specifies the appearance properties of subvalue indicators.

Type:

Object

The CircularGauge UI component can display one main value and several subvalues. The gauge's main value and subvalues are indicated by special pointers. You can customize the appearance of these pointers using the valueIndicator and subvalueIndicator configuration objects correspondingly.

The subvalue indicator is a pointer which designates an extra value on a scale. There are several types of subvalue indicators. Set the required one by using the type property, and then specify the properties that are specific to this type, if needed. To learn about the properties that can be specified for a particular type, refer to one of the following sections.

subvalues

Specifies a set of subvalues to be designated by the subvalue indicators.

Type:

Array<Number>

Default Value: undefined
Raised Events: onOptionChanged
Cannot be used in themes.

In addition to one main value, you can indicate several extra values on a gauge. These are called subvalues. To specify the subvalues, assign an array with them to the subvalues field.

You can obtain and change the subvalues at runtime. In order to do this, use the subvalues() and subvalues(subvalues) methods. Note that in that case, you need to initialize the subvalues property at least with an empty array.

JavaScript
var gaugeOptions = {
    // ...
    subvalues: []    
}

Subvalues are designated by subvalue indicators. You can customize the appearance of these indicators using the subvalueIndicator configuration object.

Type:

Number

Default Value: undefined
Raised Events: onOptionChanged
Cannot be used in themes.

The main value is designated by the value indicator. To customize the appearance of the value indicator, use the valueIndicator configuration object.

You can obtain and change the gauge value at runtime. In order to do this, use the value() and value(value) methods.

Only one main value can be indicated on a gauge. Besides the main gauge value, you can indicate several extra values. Refer to the subvalues property description for more information.
