| Device Settings | Explanation |
|---|---|
| BackColor | To change the background color for the control, click the drop‑down arrow in the right column and select a color from the Palette tab that displays. |
| CurrentValue | To change the current (default) value for the control, change the value in the right column. The default is 20. |
| DrawTextLabels | The default is True. |
| EnableThreshold1 | To enable/disable the appearance of the top middle threshold
level line, change the value in the right column. True enables
the appearance; False disables it. The default is True. |
| EnableThreshold2 | To enable/disable the appearance of the bottom middle threshold
level line, change the value in the right column. True enables
the appearance; False disables it. The default is True. |
| Font | To change the font for the numbers on the control, click the Ellipses button in the right column and select a font from the Font window that displays. The default value is Arial. |
| FormatString | To change the value format of the scale numbers, change the value in the right column. The default value is %.0f, which shows numbers, for example, as 0, 10, 20, and so on. For the value %.1f, the control would show number as 0.0, 10.0, 20.0, and so on. |
| GradientFactor | To change the gradient factor for the control, change the value in the right column. The higher the number the more pronounced the gradient for the appearance of the knob, which displays as light to dark. The default value is 0.7. |
| HorizontalLayout | To change the layout of the level indicator to be horizontal, change the value in the right column to True. The default is False. |
| LiquidColor | To change the color of the level indicator, click the drop‑down arrow in the right column and select a color from the Palette tab that displays. |
| MaximumValue | To change the maximum value for the control, change the value in the right column. The default value is 100. |
| MinimumValue | To change the minimum value for the control, change the value in the right column. The default value is 0. |
| NumberOfDivisions | To change the number of major division lines (tick markers)
for the control, change the value in the right column. The default
value is 5. For example, with the maximum value set at 100, minimum value at 0, and division at 5, your control would show major tick markers at 0, 20, 40, 60, 80, and 100. |
| NumberOfSubdivisions | To change the number of minor division lines (tick markers) between two major ones, change the value in the right column. The default value is 1, which means no minor tick marker displays between two major tick markers. For example, to make three subdivision areas appear between two major markers, enter a value of 3. |
| RelativeDepth | To change the appearance of the relative depth of the control,
change the value in the right column. The default is 0.2. For example, a value of 0 gives the control a flat tall rectangular appearance. While a value of 0.2 gives it a 3-dimensional cylindrical appearance. The appearance of the level indicator control is also affected by SquareShape, RelativeHeight and RelativeWidth. The appearance of the orientation of the level indicator is affected by HorizontalLayout. |
| RelativeHeight | To change the relative height of the control, change the value in the right column. The default is 0.9. |
| RelativeWidth | To change the relative width of the control, change the value in the right column. The default is 0.9. |
| ShadedAreaRelativeSize | The default is 0. |
| SquareShape | To change the appearance of the Level Indicator control to look like a 3-dimensional square, change the value in the right column to True. The default is False. |
| Threshold1Color | To change the color of the top middle threshold level line, click the drop‑down arrow in the right column and select a color from the Palette tab that displays. |
| Threshold1Thickness | To change the thickness of the top middle threshold level line, change the value in the right column. The default is 1. |
| Threshold1Value | To change the position of the bottom middle threshold level line, change the value in the right column. The default is 75. |
| Threshold2Color | To change the color of the bottom middle threshold level line, click the drop‑down arrow in the right column and select a color from the Palette tab that displays. |
| Threshold2Thickness | To change the thickness of the bottom middle threshold level line, change the value in the right column. The default is 1. |
| Threshold2Value | To change the position of the bottom threshold level line, change the value in the right column. The default is 35. |
| UseColorGradients | The default is True. |
