Abstract

See full text

A computer-based system and method for simulating a gauge on a computer display screen and for displaying information in the gauge. According to the present invention, gauge elements are stored in multiple forms. The gauge is generated by overlaying the forms. The gauge is modified by modifying one or more of the gauge elements in the forms. Thus, the present invention minimizes computation time because the gauge may be modified without modifying all of the gauge elements. The gauge includes a background color, a scale, a shadow, a meter, and a needle. The background color and scale are stored in a scaleForm. The shadow is stored in a shadowForm. The meter is stored in a digitsForm.
