No, I don't know this example. Could you give me a link?

And yes, I thought about edje maps + signals. But this way I need to
place each character at a fixed place on the rotary and same for the
selector. As there are several different rotators (chars, special
chars, language variants, numbers,...) there are need for many, many
hand placed edje objects. In an special widget I would calculate the
selection char position from a math calculation around the circle. Not
depending on how many chars/numbers placed around given by the widget
API.

Or am I wrong? Is this maybe possible to solve with some LUA script
inside edje?
