Annotations in JavaScript Linear Gauge control

Annotations are used to mark the specific area of interest in the gauge area with texts, shapes or images. You can add any number of annotations to the gauge.

Annotation

By using the content property of annotation object, you can either specify the id of the element or specify the code to create a new element, that needs to be displayed in the gauge area.

<script id='fruits' type="text/x-template">
   <div id='apple'>
       <img src='src/lineargauge/images/apple.png'>
   </div>
</script>
import { LinearGauge, Annotations } from '@syncfusion/ej2-lineargauge';
LinearGauge.Inject(Annotations);
let gauge: LinearGauge = new LinearGauge({
    annotations: [{
        content: 'fruits',
        x: 100,
        y: 100
    }]
}, '#element');

Annotation Customization

You can customize the annotation using following properties.

  • zIndex - When annotation overlaps with another element, you can use this property to bring annotation to the front or back.
  • horizontalAlignment - To move annotation horizontally. Possible values are “Center”, “Far”, “Near”, “None”
  • verticalAlignment - To move annotation vertically. Possible values are “Center”, “Far”, “Near”, “None”
  • x and y - To move annotation to the specified location.

Changing the z-order

You can change the z-order of the annotation element by using the zIndex property.
