jQWidgets is a JavaScript framework for making web-based applications for PC and mobile devices. It is a very powerful, optimized, platform-independent and widely supported framework. jqxGauge represents a jQuery gauge widget, it is an indicator within a range of values. We can use gauges to show a value in a range of values in the data region, there are 2 types of gauges: RadialGauge and LinearGauge. In LinearGauge, value is represented linearly in a vertical manner from some values.

The background property is used to set or return the background property i.e. it is used to set the background style of the linear gauge. It accepts object type value and its default value is  as follows

{ 
   borderRadius: 15, 
   style:  { stroke: '#cccccc', fill: 'default-gradient'}, 
   visible: true, 
   backgroundType: 'roundedRectangle', 
   showGradient: true
 }

Syntax:

  • Set the background property.
$('Selector').jqxLinearGauge({ background : object });  
  • Return the background property.
var background = $('Selector').jqxLinearGauge('background');
