TdxGaugeCustomScaleOptionsView.ShowBackground Property

Specifies the value indicating whether the background layer is displayed by the scale.

Declaration

property ShowBackground: Boolean read; write; default True;

Property Value

Type	Default
Boolean	True

Remarks

If this property is set to True, the scale’s background layer is visible; otherwise, it is hidden. Use the ShowBackground property to hide the background layer for a particular scale within the Gauge Control, which can be useful for creating nested scales that imitate clocks, stopwatches and other complex measuring instruments.

The ShowBackground Property Value	Example
True
False

Note

In order to create composite multi-functional dashboards from individual scales, you may need to hide additional displayed elements of the scale, such as labels, tick marks, and, optionally, both the needle and spindle cap (for the arc-shaped scales only). Refer to the Scale Visual Elements topic for additional information.

The default value of the ShowBackground property is True.
