In order to create a knob indicator you must first create an instance of the NNeedleValueIndicator class and then add it to the Indicators collection of the radial gauge:

NNeedleValueIndicator needle = new NNeedleValueIndicator();
radialGauge.Indicators.Add(needle);

The needle Value property defines the scale value pointed by the needle. The following code will change the value of a newly created needle indicator:

NNeedleValueIndicator needle = new NNeedleValueIndicator();
needle.Value = 10;
radialGauge.Indicators.Add(needle);

The needle shape is controlled through the needle Shape property accepting values from the ENNeedleShape enum. The following code snippet shows how to change the needle shape:

needle.Shape = ENNeedleShape.Needle4;

Needle appearance is controlled through the smart shape Fill and Stroke properties. The following code snippet will change the needle filling and stroke to dark green:

needle.Fill = new NColorFill(NColor.DarkGreen);
needle.Stroke = new NStroke(NColor.DarkGreen);

The width of the needle is controlled through the Width property of the NNeedleValueIndicator class:

needle.Width = 20;

The offset from center property of the NNeedleValueIndicator controls the offset of the needle begin point from the radial gauge center point. Positive values move the needle begin point closer to the scale whereas negative values mean the opposite. The following code snippet show how to configure the needge indicator so that it starts before the gauge center, crosses and then reaches the scale point:

m_ValueIndicator.OffsetFromCenter = -20;
