Automotive

The majority of the graphic primitives in the Automotive toolbox (as well as the standard scale, rotation and opacity) have a single state property. The particularities of this toolbox are described here:

Property Result
5/6 Gears shift: Use the state property to select the gear.
Steering wheel: Use the StartAngle and EndAngle properties to define the range of clockwise and anti-clockwise movement. For example, here the StartAngle is set to -45°. As a result, the steering wheel can only move 45° anticlockwise.
You can use the mouse to rotate the steering wheel. When you release the mouse button the steering wheel always returns to (angle) 0°.
Auto Dashboard The majority of the settings for the Auto Dashboard function in the same way as the settings for the Basic Displays (start and end values for dials, steps etc.) In addition you can toggle the view of the various icons on or off in the usual way.
