// ID, MINIMUM, MAXIMUM, INDICATED VALUE
var odo = new RGraph.Odometer('myOdo', 0, 100, 18);
odo.Set('chart.green.max', 75);
odo.Set('chart.red.min', 90);
odo.Set('chart.label.area', 50);
odo.Set('chart.needle.thickness', 2);
odo.Draw();
}

This controls the gray border of the Odometer.
Default: false
chart.tickmarks.highlighted
This controls whether the tickmarks are highlighted in red/yellow/green.

chart.zerostart
If you want the top value on your chart to be zero instead of the maximum value, set this to true.

Default: 75% of the maximum value
chart.red.min
This is the point at which the red area starts. The yellow area is between the green and red areas.

chart.green.color
This option has two roles. If chart.green.solid is true, this is the actual color, whereas if
chart.green.solid is false (the default), it's used as one of the gradient colors.
Default: green
chart.yellow.color
This option has two roles. If chart.yellow.solid is true, this is the actual color, whereas if
chart.yellow.solid is false (the default), it's used as one of the gradient colors.
Default: yellow
chart.red.color
This option has two roles. If chart.red.solid is true, this is the actual color, whereas if
chart.red.solid is false (the default), it's used as one of the gradient colors.
Default: red
chart.green.solid
If true then the associated chart.green.color option is used as the actual color, not part of a gradient
Default: false
chart.yellow.solid
If true then the associated chart.yellow.color option is used as the actual color, not part of a gradient
Default: false
chart.red.solid
If true then the associated chart.red.color option is used as the actual color, not part of a gradient
Default: false
Labels and text
chart.labels
Instead of using computed numbers, which uses the maximum value, you can specify the Odometer to use textual labels instead, with this option.
Default: null
chart.label.area
The width of the area that labels are put in.
Default: 35
chart.text.size
The size of the text (in points).
Default: 10
chart.text.font

rgba(0,0,0,0).
Default: #aaa
chart.needle.extra
With this you can specify a number of extra pointers that will be drawn on the Odometer. An example would be a meter that's used to show upload and download data. An example use:odo.Set('chart.needle.extra', [[16, 'red'], [24, 'blue']]);
Default: [] (An empty array)
Title
chart.title

Default: no title set
chart.title.font

Default: null
chart.title.vpos
This allows you to completely override the vertical positioning of the title. It should be a number between 0 and 1, and is multiplied with the gutter and then used as the vertical position. It can be useful if you need to have a large gutter.

chart.annotate.color
If you do not allow the use of the palette, then this will be the only colour allowed for annotations.
Default: black
chart.resizable
Defaulting to false, this determines whether your chart will be resizable. Because of the numerous event handlers this has to install code on, This feature is unlikely to work with other dynamic features (the context menu is fine however).
Default: false

With this you can specify the background color for the resize handle. If you're adjusting the position of the
handle then you may need this to make the handle stand out more.

Default: right
chart.zoom.vdir
