How do I create a gauge in Android?

Question

I'm looking for a view that I can put on an activity that displays as a gauge, with tickmarks, and allows me to set a value to change where the needle is pointing. Just like a speedometer!

Thanks!

Answer 1

As far as I know, there isn't such a control in the SDK. You'd have to create your own.

Edit: Here's some information on creating custom controls.

Answer 2

Brad, I'm also looking for Dials, Meters, LED's, etc for my activity. I looked at the book you suggested on Amazon, but I'm still not sure I will get the answer I want from it. Can you assure me? Also, have you found any vendors that make and sell custom controls?

Thanks!
