• Composite Gauges
  Composite gauges are comprised out of several gauge controls in order to graphically show one or more related values.
• Suite-wide Themes & Palettes
  Themes are used throughout the suite to define visual characteristics of the user interface, such as chrome shapes of DashboardPanels and Dashboard popups, as well as the matching visual properties of the individual gauge controls. Setting a theme on a DashboardPanel will automatically apply that theme to all controls that it contains. Theme settings can be overridden on each individual control. Color palettes are also commonly shared throughout the suite. Any palette can be applied against any theme. All gauge controls support the same set of palettes and themes – providing a highly consistent look and feel throughout the application. The suite ships with a set of professionally designed themes and palettes, all of which can be further customized to match any branding requirements.
• Comprehensive Visual Studio 2010 Design Time Support
  ComponentArt Gauges for .NET offers extensive design-time capabilities within Microsoft's Visual Studio 2010 IDE. All controls include custom design UI panels – enabling quick customization and design-time preview.
