How to: Customize Animation Settings

• Jun 07, 2019

This example demonstrates how to use animation effects in DXGauges.

To activate animation, set the GaugeControlBase.EnableAnimation property to True. After that, it becomes possible to customize the animation’s duration and easing function via its IndicatorAnimation.Duration and IndicatorAnimation.EasingFunction properties.
