  • 1.  Rotate TouchWheel interface

    Posted 10-23-2021 21:35
    Hello all,
    I am building a digital RCP on Dashboard and was wondering if I'm overlooking a way to rotate a TouchWheel interface so that the center point is at the top rather than on the left side.
    I've tried adjusting the range and default values as a fix, but the hard stops when turning the dial are not even on each side when that's done.

    Any suggestions or input would be appreciated from this Dashboard novice!
    Thanks!

    Here is an example panel that shows the different config options for touch wheels:

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><abs contexttype="opengear" gridsize="20" id="_top" keepalive="false" style="">
    <meta>
    <params>
    <param access="1" constraint="0.0;100.0;0.0;100.0;1" constrainttype="INT_STEP_RANGE" name="integer1" oid="integer1" precision="0" type="INT32" value="29" widget="wheel"/>
    </params>
    </meta>
    <param expand="true" height="180" left="100" oid="integer1" top="140" width="220"/>
    <param expand="true" height="180" left="320" oid="integer1" top="140" width="220">
    <config key="w.loop">false</config>
    </param>
    <param expand="true" height="180" left="540" oid="integer1" top="140" width="220">
    <config key="w.loop">false</config>
    <config key="w.numloops">5</config>
    </param>
    <label height="20" left="100" name="no config options" style="txt-align:west" top="320" width="220"/>
    <label height="20" left="340" name="w.loop=false" style="txt-align:west;" top="320" width="220"/>
    <param expand="true" height="40" left="100" oid="integer1" showlabel="false" top="380" widget="spinner" width="160"/>
    <label height="20" left="560" name="w.loop=false, w.numloops=5" style="txt-align:west;" top="320" width="220"/>
    <param expand="true" height="180" left="760" oid="integer1" top="140" width="220">
    <config key="w.thumbcolor">#DD44FF</config>
    </param>
    <label height="20" left="780" name="w.thumbcolor=#AA44FF" style="txt-align:west;" top="320" width="220"/>
    <param expand="true" height="180" left="980" oid="integer1" top="140" width="220">
    <config key="w.zero">135</config>
    </param>
    <label height="20" left="1000" name="w.zero=135" style="txt-align:west;" top="320" width="220"/>
    <label height="60" left="60" name="Touch Wheel Config Options" style="txt-align:west;size:Bigger;" top="20" width="720"/>
    </abs>




    I think the one you want is the w.zero one.   

    If you double click on the touch wheel, you put it here:


    There's a little "?" next to that config options that list all the config options for different parameter widgets.

    w.zero is definitely the one you want.   The value for this option is in degrees so, if you want to shift it to the top, you would go with 270.

    Hey Ben,
    Thank you! This is exactly what I needed!

    Nice to know that the help button there shows and describes these parameters! 

    Thanks again!

    There is a little question mark button next to the config options.   It pops up a screen that has all the config options for the different parameter widgets.
