Description

UIdials provide a dial-style UIvaluator. A dial is useful in situations where the range of the valuator is unbounded, but the user interface developer wants a control that does not require typing a numeric value.

valuePerRev

Double. Sets the value obtained by sweeping the dial a single revolution, effectively controlling the resolution of the dial. It should be set to a value greater than (max - min).

This subject is read only.

showValue

Boolean. If set on, the current dial value appears in a text widget above the dial widget. 0= off (don't show value ); 1= on (show value ). The default is on.

numTicks

Integer. Sets the number of tickmarks displayed on the dial.

style =1

Integer. Set the style of the dial face graphic. If=0, style is a plain round knob. If set to 1, style is an AVS type arrow pointer. The default is =1.
