Assembly: DevExpress.XtraGauges.v24.2.Core.dll

NuGet Package: DevExpress.Gauges.Core

#Declaration

[DefaultValue(11)]
public int MajorTickCount { get; set; }

#Property Value

Type Default Description
Int32 11

An integer value that defines the total number of major tickmarks.

#Remarks

Use the MajorTickCount and ArcScale.MinorTickCount properties to specify the number of tickmarks shown on a circular scale. The appearance of major and minor tickmarks is specified by the ArcScale.MajorTickmark and ArcScale.MinorTickmark properties, correspondingly.

In the image below, MajorTickCount = 11, which generated 11 major tickmarks: for the 0, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90 and 100 values.

CircularScaleValues_Default

This means, for example, if the ArcScale.MinValue is set to 0 and ArcScale.MaxValue is set to 12 and you want to show a major tickmark (and a label) for each integer value, you should set the MajorTickCount property to 13.

CircularScaleValues_MajorTickmarks1

Also note that if you don’t need to show the first or the last major tickmarks, or both - you can hide them by setting the ShowFirst and ShowLast properties of the ArcScale.MajorTickmark object to false.
