Gauge Visual Effects

You can apply shadows or glows to the gauge pointers, text labels, icons, and other elements. With the 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);
