Description

Linear_numbers draws spaced numbers that can be used as labels for dashboard scales:

• x1: The horizontal position of the scale's start point relative to the upper left corner of the background (0, 0). The default is zero.
  
  
• y1: The vertical position of the scale's start point relative to the upper left corner of the background (0, 0). The default is zero.
  
  
• x2: The horizontal position of the scale's end point relative to the upper left corner of the background (0, 0). The default is 100.
  
  
• y2: The vertical position of the scale's end point relative to the upper left corner of the background (0, 0). The default is 100.
  
  
• number_start: The number displayed by the first label. The default is 0. The number_start can be either smaller or larger than number_end.
  
  
• number_end: The number displayed by the last label. The default is 100. The number_end can be either larger or smaller than number_end.
  
  
• count: The total number of labels to draw. The default is 10.
  
  
• orientation The orientation of the labels. Valid values are:
  
  
  • center: Display the labels perpendicular and centered on the scale line. This is the default value.
    
    
  • left: Display the labels perpendicular and left justified on the scale line.
    
    
  • right: Display the labels perpendicular and right justified on the scale line.
    
    
  • parallel: Display the labels parallel to the scale line.
    
    
  • horizontal: Display the labels horizontal regardless of the scale angle.
    
    
  
  
• font: The font used to draw the labels (see Font). The default is Arial.
  
  
• bold: A boolean value that indicates whether the font is bold or not. Valid values are true or false. The default is true.
  
  
• size: The font's size. The default 12.
  
  
• color: The font's color. This is a string holding triple hexadecimal values representing the red, green, and blue components of a color. The default is "000000" (black).
  
  
• alpha: This affects the text's transparency, only when an embedded font is used (see font). Valid values range from 0 (fully transparent) to 1 (fully opaque). The default is 1.
  
  
• color: The labels' color. This is a string holding triple hexadecimal values representing the red, green, and blue components of a color. The default is "000000" (black).
  
  
• alpha: The labels' transparency value. Valid values range from 0 (fully transparent) to 1 (fully opaque). The default is 1.
  
  
• prefix: The characters to add before the numbers (example: $10). The default is nothing.
  
  
• suffix: The characters to add after the numbers (example: 10%). The default is nothing.
  
  
• decimals: The number of decimal places to the right of the decimal point (example: 10.45). The default is zero (no decimals).
  
  
• decimal_char: The character to use at the left of a decimal fraction (example: 1.5). The default is '.' (dot or full stop).
  
  
• separator: The character to place between every group of thousands (example: 1,00,000). The default is nothing.
