OvalScale.AnimateThroughSmallerArc Property

Gets or sets a value indicating whether animations are performed through the smaller of the two arcs even though the animated element may cross outside of the scale. This is a dependency property.

Namespace: MindFusion.Gauges.Wpf
Assembly: MindFusion.Gauges.Wpf

 Syntax

C#

public bool AnimateThroughSmallerArc { get; set; }

Visual Basic

Public Property AnimateThroughSmallerArc As Boolean

 Property Value

A boolean value.

 Remarks

This property is useful when implementing continuous scales with animated pointers, for example clocks. When the pointer is moving across the end of the scale, it will animate properly through the smaller arc. The following image illustrates the behavior of the pointer when animating across the end of the scale.

The value of the minute pointer changes so that the pointer moves across the end of the scale. The blue arrow indicate the animation direction when the AnimateThroughSmallerArc property is set to true, the red arrow indicates the animation direction when the property is set to false.

Note
Setting this property to false immediately discards all current pointer animations and sets the position of the pointers corresponding to their current value.
