1. Select the C1Gauge control on your form and click the smart tag to open the C1Gauge Tasks menu.
2. Click Save to XML File. The Save C1Gauge To XML File dialog box appears.
3. Enter a file name for the .xml and click Save. You can later load the gauge from the template. See Loading a C1Gauge from a Template for more information.
