# Setting up the Scale

Learn how to set up the Scale in C1Gauge control. See more demos, documentation, and samples here.

## Content



Each gauge inside [C1Gauge](/componentone/docs/win/online-gauges/) has its own scale and set of marks and labels. Our empty gauge has none of these yet so let’s first declare our maximum and minimum values.

1.  Click the **ellipsis** button next to the [Gauges](/componentone/docs/win/online-gauges/) property in the Properties window. The **C1Gauge.Gauges Collection Editor** dialog box opens.
2.  Set the [Minimum](/componentone/docs/win/online-gauges/) property to **0** and the [Maximum](/componentone/docs/win/online-gauges/) property to **120**. The gauge scale will run from 0 to 120.

You won’t see anything until you add some tick marks or labels. To add these, open the Decorators collection editor.
