Scale.StartValue Property

Gets or sets the start value of the scale.

Namespace: DevExpress.Xpf.Gauges

Assembly: DevExpress.Xpf.Gauges.v20.2.dll

NuGet Packages: DevExpress.WindowsDesktop.Wpf.Gauges, DevExpress.Wpf.Gauges

Declaration

public double StartValue { get; set; }

Property Value

Type Description
Double

A Double value which is a scale start.

Remarks

Use the StartValue and Scale.EndValue properties to specify the scale range.

Note that the StartValue can be either less than EndValue or greater than EndValue - both situations are correct. The table below illustrates this behavior.

StartValue = -50, EndValue = 50 StartValue = 50, EndValue = -50
Scale_EndValue greater StartValue Scale_StartValue greater EndValue

Example

This example illustrates how to create a CircularGaugeControl instance with a single ArcScale object.
