Hi

I've done quite a lot of WinForm stuff but I'm juist getting into WPF.

I have been experimenting with the simple thermometer demonstration on your website at:
http://www.telerik.com/help/wpf/linear-gauge-create-thermometer.html

And I'm getting the following error:

"The type reference cannot find a public type named 'MajorTickProperties'."

on:

<Style x:Key="ScaleMajorTick" TargetType="{x:Type telerik:MajorTickProperties}">
                                          ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I'm guessing it's a reference/namespace issue but I'm referencing Telerik.Windows.Controls and Telerik.Windows.Controls.Gauge.

And I'm including xmlns:telerik="http://schemas.telerik.com/2008/xaml/presentation" in the Window declaration.

<Window x:Class="Thermometer.MainWindow"
    xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
    xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
    xmlns:telerik="http://schemas.telerik.com/2008/xaml/presentation"
    Title="MainWindow" Height="400" Width="400">

The rest of the code is here:

<Window x:Class="Thermometer.MainWindow"
    xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
    xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"

Hope someone can suggest something?

Hi All

I think I might have worked it out.

If you look at the Gauge in the object browser you can see that there is no Major/MinorTickProperties just a TickProperties.
Changing the code from

<Style x:Key="ScaleMajorTick" TargetType="{x:Type telerik:MajorTickProperties}">
<Setter Property="Length" Value="0.03" />
<Setter Property="TickWidth" Value="0.2" />
</
Style>
<
Style x:Key="ScaleMinorTick" TargetType="{x:Type telerik:MinorTickProperties}">
<Setter Property="Length" Value="0.02" />
<Setter Property="TickWidth" Value="0.15" />

to

<Style x:Key="ScaleMajorTick" TargetType="{x:Type telerik:TickProperties}">
<Setter Property="Length" Value="0.03" />
<Setter Property="TickWidth" Value="0.2" />
</
Style>
<
Style x:Key="ScaleMinorTick" TargetType="{x:Type telerik:TickProperties}">
<Setter Property="Length" Value="0.02" />
<Setter Property="TickWidth" Value="0.15" />

seemed to fix things nicely.

Love the controls!!!!!

If this is correct it might pay to update the code on the example page 8-)

Off to bind the control to something now 8-)

Hi Robert,

You are using version 2009.1 526 of our control. The MajorTickProperties, MiddleTickProperties and MinorTickProperties classes appear starting from the 2009.Q2 release (2009.2.xxx).  The “Create Thermometer” example is OK and need not to be changed. This example has been updated to be compatible with latest 2009.Q2 release of the RadGauge control.

Version 2009.1.526 uses single TickProperties class for all 3 (Major, Middle and Minor) tick mark types.
