Effect Layer

An Effect Layer adds a style effect (for instance, a glare effect) to the digital gauge.

When a new effect layer is added to the gauge, it is painted in the foreground above all other elements because its BaseLeafPrimitive.ZOrder property is set to -1000 (the default setting).

Set the ZOrder property to a higher value to move this layer behind other gauge elements.
