Annotations in ASP.NET Core Linear Gauge control
Annotations are used to mark the specific area of interest in the Linear Gauge with text, HTML elements, or images. Any number of annotations can be added to the Linear Gauge component.
Adding annotation
To render the custom HTML elements in the Linear Gauge component, use the Content property in the e-lineargauge-annotation. The annotation can be rendered either by specifying the id of the element or specifying the code to create a new element that needs to be displayed in the gauge area.
@using Syncfusion.EJ2
<ejs-lineargauge id="linear" Orientation="Horizontal">
<e-lineargauge-annotations>
<e-lineargauge-annotation Content="#walking" X="100" Y="100" ZIndex="1"></e-lineargauge-annotation>
</e-lineargauge-annotations>
</ejs-lineargauge>
<div>
<script id="walking" type="text/x-template">
<div id="annotation" style="width:100px;">
<img style="height:20px;width:20px" src="@Url.Content("~/Content/CircularGauge/walking.svg")">
</div>

Customization
The following properties are used to customize the annotation.
ZIndex- Bring the annotation to the front or back, when annotation overlaps with another element.AxisValue- To place the annotation in the specified axis value with respect to the provided axis index.AxisIndex- To place the annotation in the specified axis with respect to the provided axis value.HorizontalAlignment- To place the annotation horizontally.VerticalAlignment- To place the annotation vertically.X,Y- To place the annotation in the specified location.
Changing the z-index
To change the stack order of an annotation element, the ZIndex property of the e-lineargauge-annotation can be used.
@using Syncfusion.EJ2
<ejs-lineargauge id="linear" Orientation="Horizontal">
<e-lineargauge-annotations>
<e-lineargauge-annotation Content="<div><h1>Gauge</h1></div>" ZIndex="1"></e-lineargauge-annotation>
</e-lineargauge-annotations>
</ejs-lineargauge>
Positioning an annotation
The annotation can be placed anywhere in the Linear Gauge by setting the pixel value to the X and Y properties in the e-lineargauge-annotation.
@using Syncfusion.EJ2
<ejs-lineargauge id="linear" Orientation="Horizontal">
<e-lineargauge-annotations>
<e-lineargauge-annotation Content="<div id='first'><h1>Gauge</h1></div>" X="250" Y="100" ZIndex="1"></e-lineargauge-annotation>
</e-lineargauge-annotations>
</ejs-lineargauge>
Alignment of annotation
The annotation can be aligned horizontally and vertically by using the HorizontalAlignment and VerticalAlignment properties respectively. The possible values can be Center, Far, Near, and None. The HorizontalAlignment and VerticalAlignment properties are not applicable when the X and Y properties are set in the e-lineargauge-annotation.
@using Syncfusion.EJ2
<ejs-lineargauge id="linear">
<e-lineargauge-annotations>
<e-lineargauge-annotation Content="<div id='first'><h1>Gauge</h1></div>" VerticalAlignment="Center" HorizontalAlignment="Center" ZIndex="1"></e-lineargauge-annotation>
</e-lineargauge-annotations>
</ejs-lineargauge>
Multiple annotations
Multiple annotations can be added to the Linear Gauge component by adding the multiple e-lineargauge-annotation in the e-lineargauge-annotations and customization for the annotation can be done with the e-lineargauge-annotation.
@using Syncfusion.EJ2
<ejs-lineargauge id="linear">
<e-lineargauge-annotations>
<e-lineargauge-annotation Content="<div><h1 style='color: red;'>Speed</h1></div>" VerticalAlignment="Near" HorizontalAlignment="Center" X="100" Y="150" ZIndex="1"></e-lineargauge-annotation>
<e-lineargauge-annotation Content="<div><h1 style='color: blue;'>Meter</h1></div>" VerticalAlignment="Center" HorizontalAlignment="Center" X="-100" Y="-100" ZIndex="1"></e-lineargauge-annotation>
</e-lineargauge-annotations>
</ejs-lineargauge>
