Quick Start Example

Here's a minimal example to get started with Blazor Linear Gauge:

@using Syncfusion.Blazor.LinearGauge

<SfLinearGauge Title="Temperature Monitor">
    <LinearGaugeAxes>
        <LinearGaugeAxis Minimum="0" Maximum="120">
            <LinearGaugeAxisLabelStyle Format="{value}°C"></LinearGaugeAxisLabelStyle>
            <LinearGaugePointers>
                <LinearGaugePointer PointerValue="65" Color="#007bff">
                </LinearGaugePointer>
            </LinearGaugePointers>
            <LinearGaugeRanges>
                <LinearGaugeRange Start="0" End="40" Color="#4CAF50"></LinearGaugeRange>
                <LinearGaugeRange Start="40" End="80" Color="#FFC107"></LinearGaugeRange>
                <LinearGaugeRange Start="80" End="120" Color="#F44336"></LinearGaugeRange>
            </LinearGaugeRanges>
        </LinearGaugeAxis>

    └── ... more event handlers

Practical API Usage Notes

1. Async Methods: All component methods (SetPointerValueAsync, SetAnnotationValueAsync, RefreshAsync, PrintAsync, ExportAsync) are asynchronous and must be awaited.

2. Export Prerequisites: Ensure AllowPdfExport="true", AllowImageExport="true", or AllowPrint="true" on the gauge before calling corresponding export or print methods.

3. Animation: Set AnimationDuration="0" for instant updates, or higher values for smooth animated transitions.

4. Event Arguments: Event handler arguments are provided by the framework and contain context-specific information (e.g., ValueChangeEventArgs contains the new value).

5. Index-Based Access: When using SetPointerValueAsync or SetAnnotationValueAsync, use zero-based indices for axes, pointers, and annotations.

6. Performance: For frequent updates (e.g., every 100ms), consider batching updates or using AnimationDuration="0" to avoid animation overhead.

7. Accessibility: Use Description, Title, and proper ARIA labels when the gauge needs to be accessible to screen readers.

Common Use Cases

1. Dashboard KPI Display

Display key performance indicators with color-coded ranges for quick status assessment. Use multiple gauges for different metrics.

2. Temperature Monitoring

Visualize temperature readings with appropriate ranges for different zones (freezing, normal, warning, critical).

3. Progress Tracking

Show task completion, project progress, or goal achievement using bar pointers on horizontal gauges.

4. Speedometer/Tachometer

Create vehicle dashboard components with styled pointers and ranges for speed or RPM display.

5. Sensor Data Visualization

Display real-time sensor readings (pressure, humidity, voltage) with dynamic pointer updates and threshold indicators.

6. Survey/Rating Display

Visualize survey results or ratings on a scale with markers showing average values and ranges for distribution.

7. Budget vs. Actual

Show financial metrics comparing budgeted vs. actual values using multiple pointers on the same axis.

8. Stock/Inventory Levels

Display inventory levels with color-coded ranges (critical, low, adequate, full) for quick status checks.

Tips for Implementation

When Starting

1. Begin with getting-started.md for setup 2. Add basic axis and pointer to verify functionality 3. Gradually add ranges, styling, and interactivity

For Customization

1. Use axes-configuration.md for scale customization 2. Use pointers.md for pointer styling 3. Use appearance-and-styling.md for overall look

For Interactivity

1. Enable pointer dragging for user input 2. Add tooltips for value display 3. Use events for responding to user actions 4. See user-interaction.md and methods-and-events.md

For Production

1. Implement accessibility features from accessibility-and-internationalization.md 2. Test with keyboard navigation 3. Verify screen reader compatibility 4. Configure proper ARIA labels

Next Steps

1. New to Linear Gauge? Start with getting-started.md 2. Need specific feature? Navigate to the relevant reference file based on your requirement 3. Building dashboard? Combine multiple patterns and refer to appearance-and-styling.md 4. Need interactivity? Check user-interaction.md and methods-and-events.md

All reference files are comprehensive and self-contained - you won't need to jump between multiple files for a single topic.
