Optical Scaling overview

The gauge size, labels and titles are visual elements that can change it’s scaling. To enable this, first set OpticalScalingEnabled to true. Then you can set OpticalScalingSize which manages the size at which labels have 100% optical scaling. Labels will have larger fonts when gauge’s size is larger. For example, labels will have a 200% larger font size when this property is set to 500 and the gauge px size is doubled to eg. 1000.
