JavaScript/jQuery CircularGauge Options

An object that defines configuration options for the CircularGauge widget.

animation

Specifies animation options.

Type:

Object

To make your gauge "live", enable animation for it by setting the enabled option 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 option and specify how long the animation should run using the duration option.

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 widget 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.

disabled

Specifies whether the widget responds to the user interaction.

Type:

Boolean

Default Value: false
Cannot be used in themes.

elementAttr

Specifies the attributes to be attached to the widget's root element.

Type:

Object

Default Value: {}

    })
)

export

Configures the exporting and printing features.

Type:

Object

These features allow a user to export your widget into a document or print it. When exporting is enabled, the "Exporting/Printing" button appears in the widget. A click on it invokes a drop-down menu that lists exporting and printing commands. The following formats are supported for exporting into: PNG, PDF, JPEG, SVG and GIF.

NOTE
Safari on Mac OS does not implement an API for saving files. Therefore, exporting in these browsers requires setting up a server-side proxy. For details, refer to the proxyUrl option description.

geometry

Specifies the options required to set the geometry of the CircularGauge widget.

Type:

Object

Specify the startAngle and endAngle options of the geometry configuration object to customize the shape of the circular gauge's arc. This arc is drawn from the startAngle to the endAngle as it is illustrated by the following image.

loadingIndicator

Configures the loading indicator.

Type:

Object

When the widget visualizes local data, loading is instant. But when the widget is bound to a remote data source, loading may takes a considerable amount of time. To keep the viewer's attention, the widget can display a loading indicator.

DevExtreme HTML5 Charts LoadingIndicator

To activate the loading indicator, assign true to the loadingIndicator.show option. Once data is loaded, the loading indicator will be hidden automatically.

These and other scale options are available in the scale configuration object.

size

Specifies the widget's size in pixels.

Type:

Object

Default Value: undefined

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

subvalueIndicator

Specifies the appearance options of subvalue indicators.

Type:

Object

The CircularGauge widget 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 option, and then specify the options that are specific to this type, if needed. To learn about the options that can be specified for a particular type, refer to one of the following sections.

View Demo

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 option 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.

View Demo

theme

Sets the name of the theme the widget uses.

Type:

String

Default Value: 'generic.light'
Accepted Values: 'generic.dark' | 'generic.light' | 'generic.contrast' | 'ios7.default' | 'generic.carmine' | 'generic.darkmoon' | 'generic.darkviolet' | 'generic.greenmist' | 'generic.softblue' | 'material.blue.light' | 'material.lime.light' | 'material.orange.light' | 'material.purple.light' | 'material.teal.light'

A theme is a widget configuration that gives the widget a distinctive appearance. Use can use one of the predefined themes or create a custom one. Changing the option values in the widget's configuration object overrides the theme's corresponding values.

NOTE
The following themes were deprecated or renamed: 'android5.light', 'win8.white', 'win8.black', 'win8.light', 'win8.dark', 'win10.white', 'win10.black', 'win10.light', 'win10.dark'. In new applications, use themes listed in the accepted values.

Use the VizTheme enum to specify this option when the widget is used as an ASP.NET MVC Control. This enum accepts the following values: GenericLight, GenericDark, GenericContrast, GenericCarmine, GenericDarkMoon, GenericSoftBlue, GenericDarkViolet, GenericGreenMist, IOS7Default, MaterialBlueLight, MaterialLimeLight, MaterialOrangeLight, MaterialPurpleLight, MaterialTealLight.

title

Configures the widget's title.

Type:

Object

|

String

The widget's title is a short text that usually indicates what is visualized. If you need to specify the title's text only, assign it directly to the title option. Otherwise, set this option to an object with the text and other fields specified.

The title can be accompanied by a subtitle elaborating on the visualized subject using the title.subtitle object.

tooltip

Configures tooltips.

Type:

Object

A tooltip is a miniature rectangle displaying the value of a gauge's indicator. A tooltip appears when the end-user hovers the cursor over an indicator. You can enable/disable tooltips, change their appearance and format their text using fields of the tooltip configuration object.

value

Specifies the main value on a gauge.

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 option description for more information.

See Also

valueIndicator

Specifies the appearance options of the value indicator.

Type:

Object

The value indicator is a pointer which designates the main value of the gauge. There are several types of value indicators. Set the required one by using the type option, and then specify the options that are specific to this type, if needed. To learn the options that can be specified for a particular type, refer to one of the following sections.
