This example illustrates how to add two buttons as Custom Elements to the linear scale and use them to increase or decrease the current scale value.
For this, create two ScaleCustomElement objects and add a button control to each custom element.
Finally, to provide the capability for end-users to change the scale's value, handle the button1_Click and button2_Click events and write code that will increment and decrement the scale value.
