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.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Comprehensive Visual Studio 2010 Design Time Support&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br/&gt;ComponentArt Gauges for .NET offers extensive design-time capabilities within Microsoft's Visual Studio 2010 IDE.
