Dials & Gauges Blockset

Learning More About Properties

Dials & Gauges Blockset blocks have many properties. Changing the appearance of a block might require changing several properties and can be quite complex. Modifying ActiveX Control Properties discusses how to make some common changes, such as changing the range of values displayed on a block.

For information about specific properties, consult the ActiveX control's help by double-clicking on the question-mark block that appears in each library of the Dials & Gauges Blockset. Some libraries provide more than one question-mark block when the blocks contained in the library are significantly different from each other. Once in the Help window, use the Properties link to display information about block properties.
