Title: Does anyone have a graphics template for a rotary selector knob?
Post by: skiraly017 on November 09, 2006, 10:13:07 AM
I'm making a cap selector box for testing purposes. I'm using rotary selector switch and was wonderng if anyone has a circular 1 - 10 (or any number) pattern that they wouldn't mind sharing or know where I can find one? I'm trying to avoid plotting the numbers by hand. Thanks.

Wow, incredible find/link!
This has all kinds of applications.

Like making scaled control knob graphics.

It opened an .eps file right into Adobe Illustrator! Very cool.
Just plunked in a few numbers, (I added the "knob");

"Outside radius (in points):
Inside radius (also in points):"

Umm... what 'points'? Pixels? Or what?

Point as in font size. 1/64" = 1 point if I remember correctly
