I am evaluating you WPF Gauge and it looks promising but is missing some functionality that is needed. I realize that this is a new product, but I thought I would present my issues to see if a solution is already in the works or could be.
1. Linear Gauge requires a pointer bar to be tied to the minumum or maximum tick value.
I have a gauge that has zero in the center with negative and positive values on either side. The pointer bar origin should be tied to zero not the minimum or maximum. So if the value was negative the bar would start at zero and end at the negative value and vice versa for positive values.
2. Additional controls
I also have the need for switches, knobs, and led lights. I was wondering if you plan on expanding your library to include any of these. I was able to create a knob using a circular gauge and this may be the solution aside from creating the additional controls myself.
Overall, this looks like a great library and the functionality that is included looks finished and works well.
