#### Showing Results in Gauge Views Gauge views are useful for showing performance against goals. The following table shows the gauges available from the Gauge drop-down list and describes their uses. The default gauge is a dial gauge.
Gauge Type | Description
--- | ---
Dial | A dial gauge shows data using a dial with one or more indicator needles that change position to indicate where the data falls within predefined limits.
Horizontal Bar Vertical Bar | A bar gauge shows data using a single bar that changes colour to indicate whether the data is within predefined limits.
Bulb | A bulb gauge shows data using a circle that changes colour to indicate whether the data is within predefined limits. An array of bulb gauges is particularly useful for scorecard-type output.
#### Gauge Subtypes Your selection for the gauge type determines which gauge subtypes are available. The dial gauge has no subtype. Gauge subtypes include the following: Bar gauges: Filled and LED-style. The default subtype is filled. Bulb gauges: 3-dimensional (3D) and 2-dimensional (2D). The default subtype is 3D. #### Gauge Sizes Gauge sizes include small, medium, large, and custom. The default size is medium. The following procedure describes how to edit a Gauge view.
