Highcharts - Angular Gauges
Section titled “Highcharts - Angular Gauges”Angular gauges (also known as speedometer charts or dial charts) are used to display a single value within a given range, often representing a Key Performance Indicator (KPI).
Common types and features of gauge charts include:
| Sr. No. | Gauge Type / Description |
|---|---|
| 1 | Standard Angular Gauge: A classic speedometer-style chart with a needle pointing to the current value on a circular scale. |
| 2 | Solid Gauge: A more modern take, often using a colored arc to represent the value instead of a needle. |
| 3 | Clock Example: Demonstrates using gauge features to create a functional analog clock. |
| 4 | Gauge with Dual Axes: Displaying multiple scales or related values within the same gauge plot area. |
| 5 | VU Meter Style: Mimics the appearance of audio Volume Unit (VU) meters. |
| 6 | Customizable Bands: Defining color bands (plotBands) on the gauge’s axis to indicate ranges (e.g., low, medium, high; or green, yellow, red). |
Gauges are particularly effective in dashboards for providing quick status updates.
