They can. I am just going to roll my own and then maybe release it. Concentric ring support as well as some other stuff to make it super flexible. Already wrote the custom events and the base class.

real knobs spin forever?
just work it like a slider but update % and position via max/min distance
and maintain the math. 3 rotations is max slider x3. Keeping track of
rotation works but you'll have to calculate for negative rotation.

I get the slider idea - makes sense, except for when you want a knob to
revolve as many times as a real one might.
So you don't necessarily always want a min and a max. Operate it like a
true
spinning dial and perhaps decrement or increment some kind of value per º
rotated.

I think in general, knobs always behave like sliders. Take for example Ableton Live, a music software which use a lot of knobs, they all behave like sliders. I think the knobs on the link you were referring to may
seem
more realistic but are actually harder to use.

Thats nice, but it works like a slider (manipulated). Looking more for a
traditional behaving knob.

Subject: [Flashcoders] AS3 Nice Knob(s)

I am looking for an AS3 knob that is close to this:

http://keith-hair.net/blog/examples/niceknobs/


yet is something I can use in the Flash CS4 IDE - a SWC would even be
nice to link up to. The URL above is just an example.

Being able to optionally check + or - movements on 360º revolu tions
(detents) would be a huge plus.

If the code is accessible, that would be super awesome for tweaking.

Tried googling, haven't found anything close yet. Any help?
