BulletGraph bullet = new BulletGraph();

bullet.Dock = DockStyle.Fill;

bullet.FeaturedMeasure = 5;

bullet.ComparativeMeasure = 7;

bullet.LabelOffset = 5;

bullet.LabelFontSize = 10;

bullet.LabelFormat = "#0 K";

bullet.LabelStroke =Color.Red;

bullet.MinorTicksPerInterval = 3;

bullet.QualitativeRanges.Add(new QualitativeRange() { RangeEnd = 4, RangeCaption = "Bad", RangeStroke = Color.Red });

bullet.QualitativeRanges.Add(new QualitativeRange() { RangeEnd = 7, RangeCaption = "Satisfactory", RangeStroke = Color.Yellow });

bullet.QualitativeRanges.Add(new QualitativeRange() { RangeEnd = 10, RangeCaption = "Good", RangeStroke = Color.Green });

this.Controls.Add(bullet);
