Hi Balaji,

If you would like to generate the exact round meter, you may consider to draw an empty round meter using Photoshop or other graphics editor, and use it as the background image of the ChartDirector meter. ChartDirector in this case can be used to draw the scale, labels and the pointer.

Hope this can help.

The AngularMeter.setBgImage expect a string(that ie "image name with path"). My image is
present inside a resource file. How to give the image which is inside the resource file as a
string.

Ex: My image name is "myimage" inside resource file name "Form1.resx"

Thanks & Regards

Balaji.

Hi Balaji,

You would need to save the resource to an image file first (eg. use CBitmap to load the resource, and CImage to save it as a file), and then pass the filename of the image file to ChartDirector.

Hope this can help.
