Gauges are GUI Objects that allow you to show the level of something, such as a volume level or a light level. An example is shown below.

To implement a gauge in guiDesigner, select the gauge icon on the tool bar. Then draw a box roughly the size of the gauge you wish to use. This size can be edited later on.
You will then need to add a theme to the gauge. To do this, select a gauge theme from the Theme Library and drag it onto the gauge you just added.

You can also drag a gauge theme directly from the Theme Manager or Theme Library onto an empty spot on an open page, and the gauge will be automatically created at the drop point and assigned the theme you dragged.

To access the Gauge Properties, right click on the gauge and select Gauge Properties

This option allows for manual entry of the position and size of the gauge.

• X Position (left of gauge)
• Y Position (top of gauge)
• Width of the gauge
• Height of the gauge

Select the gauge theme you would like to use. This choice is derived from the gauge themes you have defined in your project within the Theme Manager.

Check this box to fill the gauge in reverse. E.g. fill the gauge from the right instead of from the left.

Use this slider to change the gauge fill value in the preview window.

This windows shows how the gauge will look in your GUI.
