Round Gage Control Library for EBasic

[LarryMc]

Round Gage Control Library (GageRLM.lib) V1.0 for EBasic  is being released

This library contains the following round gage controls:
1)  12 hour clock that is set to local PC time by default;
      may be set to +/- 12 hours from local time.
2)  270 degree gage(like a speedometer) w/ single pointer
3) 360 degree single pointer w/ revolution counter
4) 360 degree 2 pointer w/ revolution counter

All controls may have a title on the upper portion of the dial face
All controls may be sized to suit the programmer.
2,3,4 have scale multiplier and units of measurement in lower portion of dial face.

Current library only works within a window and NOT a dialog.

The library may be downloaded at:

Note:  This was my first stab at creating a control and any feedback would be appreciated.

thanks for sharing Larry

That's really wild!  I know you've put a lot of time into creating your own custom controls.  Thanks a bunch.

[LarryMc]

I've got some more I want to create AND I need to see if I can figure out how to make them work in dialogs.

Thanks for the nice comments.

Hi larry!

I'm using your nice Round gage library.  I have a short question for you.
Is there any way to change min/max values once the control is created?  Or, alternatively, how can I avoid displaying min/max values?  Is that possible?

Thanks for the help.

Yours  Carlo

Sorry, it's hard coded in.  I'd have to add another variable to make that possible and add code to support that option.

If I do it it won't be anytime soon .  I currently working on a graph/chart control.

Thanks Larry, that's not a problem.  I am writing a program for logging data from a low-cost 24-bit ADC, and changing Ymin/Ymax during acquisition is an essential requirement.  A multiple round gage control would have been a nice addition but it is not essential.

Thanks anyway     Carlo

I've put it on my todo list but have no idea when I'll get around to it.

Great work mr.Larry - looks fine

Just one thing .
Example GageRLM2 ex dialog work on first try.
Example GageRLM2 example dont work on first run.
I recive error message on line 681:
that GetSysColor is undeclered function ?( maby i do something wrong?)

I chenge this line.

Code Select Expand

setwindowcolor(main, GetSysColor(0))

with this and finaly work super.

Code Select Expand

setwindowcolor(main, rgb(200,200,220))

zlatko

Code Select Expand

GetSysColor()
is defined in the .inc file that I use.

You did the correct thing to make it work.
