What problem does it solve?

Implement Syncfusion WPF Linear Gauge (SfLinearGauge) in Windows Presentation Foundation applications to visualize values with linear scales, pointers, and ranges, including thermometer-like visuals and progress indicators.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Configure a linear scale (Minimum, Maximum, Interval), add BarPointer and SymbolPointer, define colored Ranges, customize Labels and Ticks, switch between Horizontal and Vertical orientation, and apply themes.
  • Build dashboards and real-time displays with MVVM data binding, theming, and accessibility considerations.
  • Suitable for thermometer-style gauges, progress meters, KPI displays, and data-driven widgets.

Quick Start

Install the Syncfusion WPF Linear Gauge skill into your IDE using the provided installer command.

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I add a linear gauge to a WPF application for a thermometer-style display?

Add a linear gauge to a WPF application by configuring the SfLinearGauge control with a MainScale, setting Minimum and Maximum values, and adding BarPointer or SymbolPointer components for thermometer-style visual displays.

Can I bind WPF linear gauge pointers to data using MVVM?

Yes, WPF linear gauge pointers support MVVM data binding, allowing you to bind pointer values and scale properties directly to view models for real-time dashboard updates and data-driven widget displays.

How do I customize ranges and ticks on a Syncfusion WPF linear gauge?

Customize ranges and ticks on a Syncfusion WPF linear gauge by defining colored Ranges within the MainScale and configuring Tick and Label interval properties to highlight specific value segments on the scale.

Does the WPF linear gauge support both horizontal and vertical orientations?

Yes, the WPF linear gauge supports both horizontal and vertical orientations, enabling flexible layout of progress indicators and KPI displays across different dashboard configurations and spatial constraints.

What is the difference between BarPointer and SymbolPointer in a WPF linear gauge?

BarPointer renders a filled bar extending along the linear scale to indicate a value range, while SymbolPointer places a discrete marker symbol at a specific scale position for precise data point visualization.

How do I apply theming to a WPF linear gauge control?

Apply theming to a WPF linear gauge control by leveraging the built-in theme support to ensure consistent visual styling across dashboard applications, matching the broader Syncfusion WPF component theme.
