dynamic creation gauges

Hello,

1. We don't currently have any samples that build a gauge in the code-behind, but converting from the XAML representation to the C#/VB.Net is fairly trivial. Some common gotchas are:
- XAML supports a default "content" property, which it uses when not XML element property is specified. But you can use reflector to discover the "content" property, or just ask us.
- XAML uses type converters to make setting things easier. For example, the gauge controls make extensive use of the Unit type (from our Shared Library), which allows sizes to be specified using absolute pixels or percentages. So in XAML you could type "10%", but in C# you would need to use "Unit.Percentage(10)" to set say the CircularPointerNeedle.PointerExtent property. Again, you could use Reflector or ask us if you run into any issues.

2. The gauge controls don't use control templates, as everything is custom rendered. So you can't change or modify it. Instead, you add or remove various elements (pointers, ranges, scales, etc.) to achieve the look you want.
