We've been working some long hours to get WPF Studio v4.0 completed and into your hands. Both the Docking & MDI and Gauge products are now just about code complete for their first release. We already have a lot of samples that demonstrate major areas of functionality. We are now working on documentation and designer support.
As mentioned before, WPF Studio v4.0 includes a complete set of circular, linear, and digital gauges, all of which are native WPF controls.
I wanted to highlight some of the capabilities of our gauges so we came up with an automotive gauges gallery that shows a collage of gauge controls related to a car dashboard.

A car dashboard with gauges that can be fully data bound

All of the controls above are vector drawn (meaning they scale cleanly to any size) and can be data bound to live data.
Dampening, or the process of smoothing out transitions to new values, is fully supported too. When enabled, as values change, the gauge needles smoothly animate to the new values like a real gauge would.
The full source for these control samples are in our v4.0 Sample Browser. Stay tuned for some more sample screenshots soon.
