Tolerances and Gauges

Typically, when you look at a gauge, there is a small red band and the rest is the "acceptable" region.  Examples of this are your speedometer and tachometer in your car.
 
However, there are others that have both a high and low red band.  Examples of this are your voltage meter and oil level/temp gauges. 
 
In LawView, I only see gauges/meters with one red band.
 
I need a gauge that goes like this:
 
Range:  0.750 to 1.250
Redline A: 0.750 to 0.959
Redline B:   1.041 to 1.250
 
I just want the operator to look at the gauge and quickly be able to determine if the pieces are passing or failing.  The test requries a ratio of 1.000 +- 4% of a reference piece.  (that's where I get the numbers from)
 
Is this possible?

Do you want this?
Right click on the gauge, select "Add Needle".
But I don't think you can limit the range of each needle.
Anyway, this is not a lookout question. You'd better post this question in LabVIEW Forums.
