Gauge axes in EJ2 TypeScript Circular gauge control

29 Aug 202324 minutes to read

By default, gauge will be displayed with an axis. Each axis contains its own ranges, pointers and annotation.

Axis Customization

You can customize the width and color of an axis line by using lineStyle property.
Background for an axis can be customized by using background
property.

import { CircularGauge } from '@syncfusion/ej2-circulargauge';
let gauge: CircularGauge = new CircularGauge({
    axes: [{
        lineStyle: {
            width: 2,
            color: 'red'
        },
        background: 'rgba(0, 128, 128, 0.3)'
    }]
}, '#element');

Angles and Direction

Circular gauge axis can sweep from 0 to 360 degrees. By default start angle of an axis is 200 degree and end angle is 160 degree and you can customize this option by using startAngle and endAngle
property.

import { CircularGauge } from '@syncfusion/ej2-circulargauge';
let gauge: CircularGauge = new CircularGauge({
    axes: [{
        startAngle: 270,
        endAngle: 90
    }]
}, '#element');

The direction property enables you to render the gauge axis either in ClockWise or in AntiClockWise direction.

import { CircularGauge } from '@syncfusion/ej2-circulargauge';
let gauge: CircularGauge = new CircularGauge({
    axes: [{
        direction: 'AntiClockWise'
    }]
}, '#element');

Axis Radius

By default, radius of an axis is calculated based on the available size.
You can customize this, by using radius property.
It takes value either in percentage or in pixel.

In Pixel

You can set the radius of the gauge in pixel as demonstrated below,

import { CircularGauge } from '@syncfusion/ej2-circulargauge';
let gauge: CircularGauge = new CircularGauge({
    axes: [{
        radius: '150'
    }]
}, '#element');

In Percentage

By setting value in percentage, gauge gets its dimension with respect to its available size.
For example, when the radius is ‘50%’, gauge renders to half of the available size.

import { CircularGauge } from '@syncfusion/ej2-circulargauge';
let gauge: CircularGauge = new CircularGauge({
    axes: [{
        radius: '50%'
    }]
}, '#element');

Ticks

You can customize the height,
color and width of major ticks and minor ticks by using majorTicks and minorTicks property.
By default, interval for
majorTicks will be calculated automatically and also you can customize the interval for major and minor ticks using interval property.

import { CircularGauge } from '@syncfusion/ej2-circulargauge';
let gauge: CircularGauge = new CircularGauge({
    axes: [{
        majorTicks: {
            interval: 10,
            color:'red',
            height: 10,
            width: 3
        },
        minorTicks: {
            interval: 5,
            color:'green',
            height: 5,
            width: 2
        }
    }]
}, '#element');

Tick Position

Both minor and major ticks can be moved by using offset and position property. The offset defines the distance between the axis and ticks.
By default, offset value is 0. The position will place the ticks either inside or outside of the axis.
By default, ticks will be placed inside the axis.

import { CircularGauge } from '@syncfusion/ej2-circulargauge';
let gauge: CircularGauge = new CircularGauge({
    axes: [{
        majorTicks: {
            interval: 10,
            color:'red',
            height: 10,
            width: 3,
            position: 'Inside',
            offset: 5
        },
        minorTicks: {
            interval: 5,
            color:'green',
            height: 5,
            width: 2,
            position: 'Inside',
            offset: 5
        }
    }]
}, '#element');

Labels

Labels of an axis can be customized by using font property in labelStyle options.

import { CircularGauge } from '@syncfusion/ej2-circulargauge';
let gauge: CircularGauge = new CircularGauge({
    axes: [{
        labelStyle: {
            font: {
                color: 'red',
                size: '20px',
                fontWeight: 'Bold'
            }

Label Position

Labels can be moved by using offset or position property.
The offset defines the distance between the labels and ticks.
By default, offset value is 0.
The position will place the labels either inside or outside of the axis.
By default, labels will be placed inside the axis.

import { CircularGauge } from '@syncfusion/ej2-circulargauge';
let gauge: CircularGauge = new CircularGauge({
    axes: [{
        labelStyle: {
            position: 'Outside',
            offset: 5
        }
    }]
}, '#element');

Display the last label, even if it isn’t in the visible range

If the last label is not in the visible range, it will be hidden by default. If you want to show the last label, set the showLastLabel property to true in the axes API of circular gauge.

import { CircularGauge } from '@syncfusion/ej2-circulargauge';
let gauge: CircularGauge = new CircularGauge({
    axes: [{
        showLastLabel: true,
        minimum: 0,
        maximum: 170,
        startAngle: 210, endAngle: 150
    }]
}, '#element');

Auto Angle

Labels can be swept along the axis angle by enabling autoAngle property.

import { CircularGauge } from '@syncfusion/ej2-circulargauge';
let gauge: CircularGauge = new CircularGauge({
    axes: [{
        labelStyle: {
            autoAngle: true
        }
    }]

Smart Labels

When an axis makes a complete circle, then the first and last label of the axis will get overlap with each other.
In this scenario, you can either hide 1st or last label using hiddenLabel property.
When hiddenLabel value is First,then the 1st label will be hidden and when the
hiddenLabel value is ‘Last’, then the last label will be hidden.

import { CircularGauge } from '@syncfusion/ej2-circulargauge';
let gauge: CircularGauge = new CircularGauge({
    axes: [{
        minimum: 0,
        maximum: 12,
        startAngle: 0,
        endAngle: 360,
        majorTicks: {
            interval: 1,
            position: 'Inside',
            height: 10
        },
        minorTicks: {
            interval: 0.2,
            position: 'Inside',
            height: 5
        },
        labelStyle: {
            position: 'Inside',
            hiddenLabel: 'First'
        }
    }]
}, '#element');

Label Format

Axis labels can be formatted by using format property in labelStyle and its supports all globalize format.

import { CircularGauge } from '@syncfusion/ej2-circulargauge';
let gauge: CircularGauge = new CircularGauge({
    axes: [{
        labelStyle: {
            format: 'p1'
        }
    }]
}, '#element');

1000 c2 $1,000.00 The Currency symbol is appended to number and number is rounded to 2 decimal place

Custom Label Format

Axis labels support custom label format using placeholder like {value}°C, in which the value represent the axis label e.g 20°C.

import { CircularGauge } from '@syncfusion/ej2-circulargauge';
let gauge: CircularGauge = new CircularGauge({
    axes: [{
        labelStyle: {
            format: '{value}°C'
        }
    }]
}, '#element');

Hide intersecting axis labels

When the axis labels overlap with each other, you can hide the intersected labels by setting the hideIntersectingLabel property to true in the axis.

import { CircularGauge } from '@syncfusion/ej2-circulargauge';
let gauge: CircularGauge = new CircularGauge({
    axes: [{
        hideIntersectingLabel: true,
        minimum: 0,
        maximum: 200,
        startAngle: 270,
        endAngle: 90,
        majorTicks: {
           interval:4
        },
        minorTicks: {
           interval:2
        }

        maximum: 250
    }]

Multiple Axes

In addition to the default axis, you can add n number of axis to a gauge.
Each axis will have its own ranges, pointers, annotations and customization options.

import { CircularGauge } from '@syncfusion/ej2-circulargauge';
let gauge: CircularGauge = new CircularGauge({
    axes: [{
        majorTicks: {
            interval: 10,
            position: 'Inside',
            height: 10,
        },
        pointers: [],
        minorTicks: {
            interval: 5,
            position: 'Inside',
            height: 5,
        }
    }, {
        pointers: [],
        majorTicks: {
            interval: 10,
            position: 'Inside',
            height: 10,
            color: '#27d5ff'
        },
        minorTicks: {
            interval: 5,
            position: 'Inside',
            height: 5,
            color: '#27d5ff'
        }
    }]
}, '#element');
