Customizing the Linear Gauge container

The area used to render the ranges and pointers at the center position of the gauge is called container. The following types of container to be applicable for Linear Gauge.

  • Normal
  • Rounded Rectangle

  • Thermometer

    The type of the container can be modified by using the type property in container. The container can be customized by using the following properties in container.

  • offset - To place the container with the specified distance from the axis of the Linear Gauge.
  • width - To set the thickness of the container.
  • height - To set the length of the container.
  • backgroundColor - To set the background color of the container.
  • border - To set the color and width for the border of the container.

Normal

The Normal type will render the container as a rectangle and this is the default container type.

import * as React from "react";
import * as ReactDOM from "react-dom";
import { LinearGaugeComponent, AxesDirective, AxisDirective , PointersDirective, PointerDirective } from '@syncfusion/ej2-react-lineargauge';
export function App() {
   return(
    <LinearGaugeComponent container={ { width:30 } }>
        <AxesDirective>
            <AxisDirective>
                <PointersDirective>
                    <PointerDirective value={50} width={15} type='Bar'>
                    </PointerDirective>
                </PointersDirective>
            </AxisDirective>
        </AxesDirective>
    </LinearGaugeComponent>);
}
const root = ReactDOM.createRoot(document.getElementById('container'));
root.render(<App />);
import * as React from "react";
import * as ReactDOM from "react-dom";
import { LinearGaugeComponent, AxesDirective, AxisDirective , PointersDirective, PointerDirective } from '@syncfusion/ej2-react-lineargauge';
export function App() {

            <AxisDirective>
                <PointersDirective>
                    <PointerDirective value={50} width={15} type='Bar'>
                    </PointerDirective>
                </PointersDirective>
            </AxisDirective>
        </AxesDirective>
    </LinearGaugeComponent>);
}
const root = ReactDOM.createRoot(document.getElementById('container'));
root.render(<App />);

Rounded Rectangle

The RoundedRectangle type will render the container as a rectangle with rounded corner radius. The rounded corner radius of the container can be customized using the roundedCornerRadius property in container.

import * as React from "react";
import * as ReactDOM from "react-dom";
import { LinearGaugeComponent, AxesDirective, AxisDirective , PointersDirective, PointerDirective } from '@syncfusion/ej2-react-lineargauge';
export function App() {
   return(
    <LinearGaugeComponent container={ { width:30, type:'RoundedRectangle' } }>
        <AxesDirective>
            <AxisDirective>
                <PointersDirective>
                    <PointerDirective value={50} width={15} type='Bar'>
                    </PointerDirective>
                </PointersDirective>
            </AxisDirective>
        </AxesDirective>
    </LinearGaugeComponent>);
}
const root = ReactDOM.createRoot(document.getElementById('container'));
root.render(<App />);
import * as React from "react";
import * as ReactDOM from "react-dom";
import { LinearGaugeComponent, AxesDirective, AxisDirective , PointersDirective, PointerDirective } from '@syncfusion/ej2-react-lineargauge';
export function App() {
   return(
    <LinearGaugeComponent container={ { width:30, type:'RoundedRectangle' } }>
        <AxesDirective>
            <AxisDirective>
                <PointersDirective>
                    <PointerDirective value={50} width={15} type='Bar'>
                    </PointerDirective>
                </PointersDirective>
            </AxisDirective>
        </AxesDirective>
    </LinearGaugeComponent>);
}
const root = ReactDOM.createRoot(document.getElementById('container'));
root.render(<App />);

Thermometer

The Thermometer type will render the container similar to the appearance of thermometer.

import * as React from "react";
import * as ReactDOM from "react-dom";
import { LinearGaugeComponent, AxesDirective, AxisDirective , PointersDirective, PointerDirective } from '@syncfusion/ej2-react-lineargauge';
export function App() {
   return(
    <LinearGaugeComponent container={ { width:30, type:'Thermometer' } }>
        <AxesDirective>
            <AxisDirective>
                <PointersDirective>
                    <PointerDirective value={50} width={15} type='Bar'>
                    </PointerDirective>
                </PointersDirective>
            </AxisDirective>
        </AxesDirective>
    </LinearGaugeComponent>);
}
const root = ReactDOM.createRoot(document.getElementById('container'));
root.render(<App />);
import * as React from "react";
import * as ReactDOM from "react-dom";
import { LinearGaugeComponent, AxesDirective, AxisDirective , PointersDirective, PointerDirective } from '@syncfusion/ej2-react-lineargauge';
export function App() {
   return(
    <LinearGaugeComponent container={ { width:30, type:'Thermometer' } }>
        <AxesDirective>
            <AxisDirective>
                <PointersDirective>
                    <PointerDirective value={50} width={15} type='Bar'>
                    </PointerDirective>
                </PointersDirective>
            </AxisDirective>
        </AxesDirective>
    </LinearGaugeComponent>);
}
const root = ReactDOM.createRoot(document.getElementById('container'));
root.render(<App />);

Fitting the Linear Gauge to the control

The Linear Gauge component is rendered with margin by default. To remove the margin around the Linear Gauge, the allowMargin property in LinearGaugeComponent is set as false.

import * as React from "react";
import * as ReactDOM from "react-dom";
import { LinearGaugeComponent } from '@syncfusion/ej2-react-lineargauge';
export function App() {
   return(
    <LinearGaugeComponent allowMargin={false} height="100%" width="100%" orientation='Horizontal' margin= {{ left: 0, right: 0, top: 0, bottom: 0 }} border= {{ width: 2, color: "red" }}>
    </LinearGaugeComponent>);
}
const root = ReactDOM.createRoot(document.getElementById('container'));
root.render(<App />);
import * as React from "react";
import * as ReactDOM from "react-dom";
import { LinearGaugeComponent } from '@syncfusion/ej2-react-lineargauge';
export function App() {
   return(
    <LinearGaugeComponent allowMargin={false} height="100%" width="100%" orientation='Horizontal' margin= {{ left: 0, right: 0, top: 0, bottom: 0 }} border= {{ width: 2, color: "red" }}>
    </LinearGaugeComponent>);
}
const root = ReactDOM.createRoot(document.getElementById('container'));
root.render(<App />);

To use this feature, set the allowMargin property to false, the width property to 100% and the properties of margin to 0.
