Radial Gauge Tick Markers

[User (Legacy)]

Hi,

I'm working with a radial gauge with a main scale from 0 to 1 (because the 

values i'm showing are decimal numbers between 0 and 1). The problem I'm 

having is that the markers that display the value at each tick along the 

scale are rounded to the nearest integer and ends up looking quite strange 

because the all the values are either 0 or 1 (not the true decimal numbers). 

You can reproduce this issue by adding a radial gauge control to a report 

and set the min of the main scale to 0 and the max of the main scale to 1 

and observing the markers along the scale.

Is there any way that I can show decimal numbers along the scale? Or better 

yet, can I format numbers to represent percentages?

Thanks,

Matt

Dear Matt:

The format of the labels is controlled by: gauge.MainScale.Tickmarks.Format. 

In your case, I would suggest to set the Format property to the following:

gauge.MainScale.Tickmarks.Format.Decimals = 2;

gauge.MainScale.Tickmarks.Format.FormatType = FormatType.Percentage;

Regards,
