.NET Gauge Indicators

Avoid Clutter
Ensure the gauge is not overcrowded with too many elements, which can distract or confuse the user.

Clear Labels
Use clear, concise labels for the scale and important values.

Logical Range
Set the state indicator ranges to cover the values relevant to the application.

Intuitive Colors
Utilize colors that are intuitively understood (e.g., green for safety, red for danger).

Contrast
Ensure there is enough contrast between different color zones for clear distinction as well as sufficient contrast between the state indicator and its background.
