A gauge chart describes a single metric. Unlike an individual value plot, it is generally used with a threshold to measure the metric status. It is suitable for rating scenarios, such as system health monitoring.

Chart Style
Show Threshold Scale: Display the configured threshold scale on the chart.
Metric Aggregation: This is an advanced feature. Select an aggregation method for metrics, aggregate the results of identical metrics, and then plot the chart (for example, if a metric returns a range value that contains metric results from multiple time points, first aggregate the sum of all time points and then plot the chart). By default, no aggregation is performed.
Maximum Display Quantity for Gauge: Set the maximum number of metrics to display. Any exceeding metrics will be hidden.
Color Scheme: Configure the display colors of the chart.
