Set up a Basic Color Gradient Using a Range Control

The Basic Gradient option allows you to specify two colors, corresponding to the minimum and maximum values of the range object. SysTrack Dashboard will create a continuous gradient between these two colors to assign to the values between the low and high values as seen in the example below.

NOTE: The Range Control is automatically hidden in the viewer when displaying a basic color gradient.

If you wish to set up a range slider with a basic color gradient with a maximum and minimum color for a grid, gauge, bubble diagram, or map:

1. Drag a Range Control block to your workspace for setting up color gradients.

NOTE: The Range Control for setting up color gradients has to be a different object than the Range Control used to set up parameter values.

2. Connect the Range Control block to the desired object (grid, gauge, bubble diagram, or map)
3. Select the Range Control block and in the Properties for the block, select the Basic gradient check box.
4. Specify the Minimum and Maximum values for the range using either the fields in the Input Bindings or the manual settings. Settings in the Input Bindings will take precedence over manual entry.

5. Click the drop-down arrow next to Colors.
6. Click in the Minimum value color field to display a color selector, and select the desired color. Repeat this for the Maximum value color field.
7. When you are done, click the Apply button.

NOTE: In the Basic Gradient mode, a full-dial style of gauge will not show a gradient.
