I need to represent values in a form (and report) from 4.0 to 9.0 on a
semi-circular meter (like a watch face with only one hand) with the value 4.0
at 270 degrees (9:00), the value 6.5 at 0 degrees (12:00) and the value 9.0
at 90 degrees (3:00). Increments are in tenths (3.6 degrees per increment).
There are 5 meters on the form and while the range of data is different for
each – once I get one working, I should be able to figure out the rest.
The value is static once the form is opened, but is computed each time the
form is opened.
The left side (1/2 of the semi circle – a quadrant) of the meter’s
background is green and the right side is red. The value indicator is a
radius line or an arrow from the center of the semi-circle to the appropriate
value.
I can do this with a progress type bar but my client wants a semi-circular
meter (“Speedometer†he calls it).
I can also do this with different images of each meter for each value, but I
hope there is a more elegant way to do this.
Appreciate any suggestions.
Thanks,
Jeff
