}
var gauge = new esri.dijit.Gauge(gaugeParams, "gaugeDiv");
Method Details
Destroy the gauge. Call this method when the gauge is no longer needed by the application.
Get the value of the property from the Gauge. Public properties are:
| <String> caption | The gauge caption |

< |
Required | Property to get value. |
Set the value of a property from the Gauge. Recommended when the Gauge is not explicitly connected to a layer. Public properties are:
| <String> caption | The gauge caption |
| <String> dataLabel | Data label |
| <Graphic> feature | Specify either an object from a graphic or feature layer mouse event or a graphic Setting feature causes dataLabel and value to update as well. |
