    In This Topic

    The quick start guides you through the steps of adding a BulletGraph control to your MVC web application and set its value. For information on how to add a control, See Adding controls.

    Follow the steps given below to get started:

    Create an MVC Application

    Create a new MVC application using the ComponentOne or VisualStudio templates. For more information about creating an MVC application, see Configuring your MVC Application topic.

    Add a new Controller and View

    Add a new Controller:

    1. In the Solution Explorer, right click the folder Controllers.
    2. From the context menu, select Add | Controller. The Add Scaffold dialog appears.
    3. Complete the following steps in the Add Scaffold dialog:
      1. Select Empty MVC Controller template.
      2. Set name of the controller (for example: Default1Controller).
      3. Click Add.
    4. A new controller is added to the application.

    Add a View for the controller:

    1. From the Solution Explorer, expand the folder Controllers and double click the controller (for example: Default1Controller) to open it.
    2. Place the cursor inside the method Index().
    3. Right click and select Add View. The Add View dialog appears.
    4. In the Add View dialog, verify that the View name is Index and View engine is Razor (CSHTML).
    5. Click Add. A view is added for the controller.

    Add a Model

    Models are required to fetch data for the controls.

    1. In the Solution Explorer, right click the folder Models and select Add | Class. The Add New Item dialog appears.
    2. In the Add New Item dialog, set the name of the class (for example: Class1.cs).
    3. Click Add. A new class is added to the application.

    Add the Control

    1. From the Solution Explorer, expand the folder Views.
    2. Double click Index.cshtml to open it.
    3. Replace the default code of the Index.cshtml file with the code given below to initialize a BulletGraph control and set the following properties:
      • Set the gauge Value to 35. The Value property denotes the gauge's current value.
      • Set the Min and Max properties to 0 and 100 respectively. The Min and Max properties specify the range of the gauge. You can add multiple ranges to a single gauge.
      • Set the Target, Good and Bad properties to 70, 60 and 40 respectively.
      • Set the Gauge's isReadOnly property to False. The isReadOnly specifies whether a user can edit the gauge's Value using a keyboard or a mouse.
      HTML
      Copy Code 
      <c1-bullet-graph min=0 max=100 good=60 bad=40 value=50 target=70 width="500px"
                 is-read-only="false" step="1" is-animated="true">
</c1-bullet-graph>

    Build and Run the Project

    1. Click Build | Build Solution to build the project.
    2. Press F5 to run the project.
      Append the folder name and view name to the generated URL (for example: http://localhost:1234/Default1/index) in the address bar of the browser to see the view. Or link the view to the home page.
