RS Services Graphical Extensions? (Dashboard Gauges)

hello all,
I am trying to use RS in order to develop a dashboard like application that
would start at KPI (Key Performance indicators) level and drill through to
more detailed levels of table/matrix reports. all the drill through and
drill down with parameter passing is all done. I can not seem to find any
third party application or custom code that would extend the built-in
graphical library ( pie, horizontal bar, scattered, etc charts) to have
Guages and instrumentation like graphs. Is there anything like that
available on the market?
Thank You
Tony A.
aaltobelli007{at}yahoo.comHi....
Dundas (http://www.dundas.com/) has some graph tools that have gauges.

2005 RS. Several 3rd parties have signed up to do extensions.

and then use a web service retrieve the data from your RS reports into your
Xcelsius dashboards. That is the solution I am using and I'm very happy
with the results. I leverage the cached, hourly reports in RS as a source to
my interactive dashboards in Xcelsius. I don't need to add any .NET coding
to get this done and I get to use existing RS reports as my data source.
It's a very nice solution to a low-maintenance, data-intense dashboard.
