How do I change the background behind the indicators in the new gauge controls?  Here's my control so far:

<telerik:RadHorizontalLinearGauge Width="300" Height="100">
    <telerik:LinearScale Min="0" Max="14" LabelTemplate="{StaticResource LabelEmpty}"/>
    <telerik:LinearScale Min="0" Max="14" LabelLocation="Inside" MajorTickLocation="Inside" MiddleTickLocation="Inside" MinorTickLocation="Inside">
        <telerik:LinearScale.Indicators>
            <telerik:BarIndicator x:Name="lbVoltage" Value="0" StrokeThickness="0" StartWidth="0.1" Background="{StaticResource AccentBrush}"/>
        </telerik:LinearScale.Indicators>
    </telerik:LinearScale>
</telerik:RadHorizontalLinearGauge>

It looks pretty good, but the background for the indicators is set to stark white.  I'd rather make it transparent, but I don't know where to change it.

Hello Joel,

This is what we call "scale bar". You can change its background using the "Fill" property of the scale object. For example:

<telerik:RadHorizontalLinearGauge Width="300" Height="100">
    <telerik:LinearScale Min="0" Max="14"
             Fill="Transparent"
             LabelTemplate="{StaticResource LabelEmpty}"/>
    <telerik:LinearScale Min="0" Max="14"
             Fill="Transparent"
             LabelLocation="Inside"
             MajorTickLocation="Inside"
             MiddleTickLocation="Inside"
             MinorTickLocation="Inside">
        <telerik:LinearScale.Indicators>
            <telerik:BarIndicator x:Name="lbVoltage"
                      Value="3"
                      StrokeThickness="0"
                      StartWidth="0.1"
                      Background="{StaticResource AccentBrush}"/>
        </telerik:LinearScale.Indicators>
    </telerik:LinearScale>
</telerik:RadHorizontalLinearGauge>
