[Tutorial] Creating custom gauges in ReportNet

[sir_jeroen]

Hi all,

I've created a new tutorial on Creating Custom gauges in ReportNet.

http://www.jeroendegraaff.nl/tutorials

Beware: There's voice :-\

My thanks go out to Ed Worsfold from Dundas who provided me with some gauge templates.

I'll be sharing these templates with you too.

(Note: Cognoise administrator: can you enable .zip?? )


In order to download the component please visit:

http://www.dundas.com/products/gauge/index.aspx?Section=Gauge&Campaign=Cognoise.com

Don't forget to look at the gauges gallery..

There are some great looking gauges!!!

Please let me know what you think of the tutorial and what you think of the product I used.


(This is so I know I'm not doing this only for myself)


Here's the code that you can use:

This code uses 2 parameters: GaugeType and Value.
Parameter:
Ã,  Ã,  Ã, GaugeType: use to select the template that you want to use for your gauge;
Ã,  Ã,  Ã, Value: The value to display;

Code Select Expand


string strGaugeNumber = "1";
double dblValue = 0;

if (Request.Params["GaugeType"] !="" && Request.Params["GaugeType"] != null)
{
Ã,  Ã,  strGaugeNumber = Request.Params["GaugeType"];
}
if (Request.Params["Value"] != "" && Request.Params["Value"]!= null)
{
Ã,  dblValue = Convert.ToDouble(Request.Params["Value"].Replace('.',','));
}
try
{
objGaugeContainer.Serializer.Load (@"http://localhost/GaugeCollection/GaugeTemplate"+strGaugeNumber+".xml");
}
catch
{
objGaugeContainer.Serializer.Load(@"http://localhost/GaugeCollection/GaugeTemplate1.xml");
}
objGaugeContainer.RenderType = RenderType.BinaryStreaming;
objGaugeContainer.CircularGauges[0].Pointers[0].Value = dblValue;
objGaugeContainer.Page = this;
HtmlTextWriter writer = new HtmlTextWriter(Page.Response.Output);
objGaugeContainer.RenderControl(writer);
}

Those tutorials are very nice, thanks.   I noticed during the tutorials that your ReportNet installation runs really fast, at least compared with what I'm using.  Would it be possible to find out some of the specs of the hardware and operating system that computer is running?

Thanks.
