General Features

Support for SQL Server 2005 and 2008 editions: Nevron Gauge for SQL Server Reporting Services introduces a new level of data visualization, designed to extend your reports within SSRS 2005 and 2008 editions.

Support for Multiple Gauge Areas: Nevron Gauge for Reporting Services has support for unlimited number of gauge areas. Each gauge area has its own gauge type. Gauge areas can be automatically or manually arranged. Gauge areas can be nested into one another to create sub gauges.

Support for Multiple Titles: Nevron Gauge for Reporting Services has support for unlimited number of titles. Titles can be manually positioned or docked to gauge, gauge areas and gauge plot areas.

Support for Gauge Templates: Nevron Gauge for Reporting Services has support for saving and loading templates. Save the gauge state from the designer to XML and then import it in in a different report item. The state generated by the VS2005 and VS2008 report items is compatible meaning you can easily convert reports generated with different versions of Visual Studio.

Support for Code Customization:  Nevron Gauge for Reporting Services supports customization through C# code, which allows you to use the full Nevron Chart for .NET API in SSRS.

Gauge Types: Nevron Gauge for SSRS provides support for various Radial (Circular) Gauges, Linear Gauges, Numeric Display panels and State Indicators.

Gauge Formulas: Gauges are designed to provide data analysis to sets of numeric values. Gauge formulas can be applied to the aggregated sets applicable to axis ranges {min and max}, ranges {begin and end} and pointer and numeric display values. Nevron Gauge for SSRS includes various types of data analysis formulas like: Min, Max, Average and more.

Gauge Axes: Nevron Gauge for Reporting Services radial and linear gauge types support an unlimited number of axes, packed with a complete set of features designed to solve even the most complex gauge requirements.

Gauge Axes Ranges: Nevron radial and linear gauge types support an unlimited number of ranges. Ranges help you visualize the coverage of a values range on a certain axis.

Gauge Pointers: Radial and linear gauge types support an unlimited number of pointers. Pointers help you visualize a value on a certain axis. Radial gauges support numerous needle styles. Both linear and radial gauges can display pointers as markers.

Gauge Types

Radial / Circular Gauges: Nevron Radial Gauge displays axes, ranges and pointers in a circular fashion.

Radial Gauge Subtypes: Radial, Quarter North East, Quarter North West, Quarter South West, Quarter South East, Half North, Half South, Half West, Half East and Custom. When using Custom subtype the user can specify custom begin angle, sweep angle, border style etc.

Linear Gauges: Nevron Linear Gauge displays axes, ranges and pointers in a linear fashion.

Linear Gauge Subtypes: Horizontal and Vertical.

Numeric Display: Nevron Numeric Display panel displays values in a fashion similar to a LED displays.

Numeric Display Styles: Seven Segment Normal, Seven Segment Rounded, Seven Segment Rectangular, Fourteen Segment Normal, Fourteen Segment Rectangular, Fourteen SegmentInset, Matrix Rectangle and Matrix Circle.

State Indicators: Nevron State Indicators are supplementary gauges, typically used to visually prompt the user that a value has entered a critical range.

Gauge Axes Features

Unlimited Number of Axes per Gauge: Radial and Linear gauge types support an unlimited number of axes, packed with a complete set of features designed to solve even the most complex gauge requirements.

Advanced Axis Positioning Options: Axes can be docked to the gauge sides (or rim) or arbitrary positioned in the gauge model space. In addition you have control over the begin / end axis position relative to the gauge area.

Ruler: Control over the ruler position and appearance.

Ticks: Support for major and minor ticks with control over their appearance and position.

Axis Stripes: Axis Stripes highlight repeating ranges of data on the gauge background, with a controllable show/hide pattern.

Axis Sections: Axis Sections conditionally modify the appearance of axis ticks, gridlines and labels, provided they are within a user-specified data range(s). This feature helps you to highlight important ranges of data along the axis.

Label Layout: Nevron Gauge for Reporting Services provides advanced axis-label layout options, which let you resolve complex axis-label overlapping cases.

Label Formatting: Label Formatting controls the formatting of values along numeric scales. Many advanced options for currency, percentage, scientific and date time label formatting are available.

Gauge Indicator Features

Unlimited number of Indicators: Linear and Radial Gauges support an unlimited number of pointer and range indicators.

Ranges: Ranges help you visualize the coverage of a values range on a certain axis. You have full control over the range offset from scale, appearance and paint order.

Pointers: Pointers help you visualize a value on a certain axis. Radial gauges support numerous needle styles. Both linear and radial gauges can display pointers as markers. Both marker and needle pointers allow you to have full control over the pointer offset from scale, appearance and paint order.

Gauge Formulas: Gauges are designed to provide data analysis to sets of numeric values. Gauge formulas can be applied to the aggregated sets applicable to axis ranges {min and max}, ranges {begin and end} and pointer and numeric display values. Supported are the following gauge formulas:

·         Min - finds the min value from a set.

·         Max - finds the max value from a set.

·         Average - finds the average value from a set.

·         Median - finds the value that splits the set in half (e.g. half of the values are smaller than median value and half are larger).

·         Percentile - finds the value that splits the set in a custom percent.

·         First - gets the first value from a set.

·         Last - gets the last value from a set.

Rendering:

·         Support for different image formats

·         Specify resolution

·         Image sizing options

·         Gray scale rendering

·         On/off image map rendering

·         Control over the currently used culture settings. You can select a custom culture or synchronize the currently used culture with the user regional settings.

Appearance Customizations

·         Fill Style editor - helps you define the filling of an element. Provides options for solid color, gradient, image and advanced gradient fill types.

·         Stroke Style editor - helps you define the outline/stroke of an element. Provides options for line caps and joins, line pattern and color.

·         Shadow Style editor - helps you define the shadow which is casted by an element. Provides options for solid, linear, radial blur and gaussian blur shadows.

·         Text Style editor - helps you define the default appearance of a text element. Provides options for font size and type, font filling, outline, shadow, backplane etc.

·         Frame Style editor - helps you define the frame of the component and its panels. Supports artistic/image borders.
