Round Meters with Readout


  

This example demonstrates round meters configured with a large pointer cap to display the meter value.

The pointer cap is the circular object at the center of the meter. In this example, using AngularMeter.setCap2, the pointer cap is set to an exceptionally large size so that it can act as a place to display text. The text is added using BaseChart.addText, centered at the meter center.

In one of the meters, the pointer is configured to be floating, which means the base of the pointer is not fixed at the meter center. The pointer looks like a triangle somewhere between the center and the perimeter, pointing to the meter value. This pointer is added using AngularMeter.addPointer2 with TriangularPointer2 just like a standard pointer, but with additional arguments to specify the radial position of the pointer base and tip, as well as the pointer width.
