Gauge Visual Effects

You can apply shadow or glow effects to the gauge pointers, text labels, icons and other elements. With a help of these visual effects, you can create realistic gauges.

Sample code:

CBCGPCircularGaugeImpl* pGauge;

CBCGPGaugeEffects effects;

// Apply shadow effect to the pointer and cap:
effects.m_effectPointer.m_effect = 
	CBCGPVisualEffect::BCGP_VISUAL_EFFECT_SHADOW;
effects.m_effectCap.m_effect = 
	CBCGPVisualEffect::BCGP_VISUAL_EFFECT_SHADOW;

// Apply glow effect to the text labels:
effects.m_effectLabel.m_effect = 
	CBCGPVisualEffect::BCGP_VISUAL_EFFECT_GLOW;
effects.m_effectLabel.m_color = CBCGPColor::Gold;
effects.m_effectLabel.m_deviation = 7.;

pGauge->SetVisualEffects(effects);
