# minValue attribute

The minValue attribute specifies the minimum value for the graphic object element.

The bar graph, gauge, numericInputCursorPoint and numericInputEnable graphic object elements contain this attribute.

For the barGraph, if the Value connection is at or below this value, the bar graph is empty. For the gauge, if the Value connection is at or below this value, the needle is at the left end of the dial.

For the numericInputCursorPoint and numericInputEnable graphic object elements, this attribute specifies the minimum value to send to the Value connection. If the decimalPoint attribute is fixedPosition, the minimum applies to the stripped value, not the displayed value. If you assign a control to the Optional Expression, the minimum also applies to the value sent to the expression.
