Hello,

I've been experimenting with creating a numeric indication with the Telerik suite and I have encountered a few problems. I am attempting to use the HexagonalNumberPosition and it seems to not handle a few situations particularly well. For example, if the control is made too large, there are a lot of rough edges around some of the edges of the segments. Also, the decimal scales very badly and is comparatively huge for a decimal place.

Is there any way I can better control the rendering of these elements?

Thanks

Hi Wes,

Could you please be more specific about the controls you use in your project? There are options to improve the rendering of some controls (or parts of them) of the suite but we need to know more information about your particular scenario. Any pictures or a running project, demonstrating how you scale up our controls will help us better understand your scenario.

Thank you for your cooperation.

Heh, re-reading my post, I guess I was a little vague.

I'm trying to use the RadVerticalGauge WPF control as a numeric indicator which looks like a LED display. As mentioned, though, I'm having a couple of problems with the rendering. I've attached some screenshots to demonstrate my concerns. I'd like to use this control over an LCD-esque font due to the fact that I later wish to add a horizontal range scale under the number.

Anyway, the first screenshot shows the overly-large decimal. If possible, I would prefer it if the decimal did not take a number position at all and was placed between positions instead. The second shows the rough edges that appear if the display is made too large.

Thanks for the help.

Hi Wes,

Thank you for elaborating on your scenario. I now understand what you refer to. I can confirm that visualizing the NumericIndicator should be constant no matter on what screen size it is visualized. This is why I logged on your behalf a bug report in our Feedback portal.

Regarding your second requirement I also logged a feature request in our feedback portal. Please follow the provided items and stay tuned for any changes. This is the best way to be notified whenever the item is changed or updated.

At the moment their status is Under Review which means that they are about to be carefully evaluated. If the corresponding developer decides to approve or decline any of them, we will update their status accordingly. Approving a bug or a feature request means that we will shulde its fix or implementation in our future releases.
