[djtoon]

i know how to do it in as3 ( im a flash programer) but here its alittle bit tricky
any ideas how to start on a knob ui component

Do you mean adding a rotating knob component to the DDGUI, or just making one self-standing component ?

You provide is with very little information

Can you tell a little more about the app and the use of your component ?

It may be as simple as ROTOSPRITE for the rotation

[djtoon]

well its a knob that chages volume
and when you click it and turn it sould rotate

[ketil]

Check out the MOUSESTATE and ROTOSPRITE commands in the documentation.
I quess that might be all you need.

In DDgui would be a bit tricky as the interface to add your own widgets hasn't been exposed yet.

However, what you would need is to design a dial and then rotate a dot or something depending on the direction of mouse movements.

The alternative (and easier way) would be to use a slider.

Hi djtoon,

here is a little code snippet. If you want to understand it, change some values or so.
Have fun

cheers
