First Post – Gauge Component
Betterthanflex.com is an outlet for Adobe Flex applications and components that I create in my spare time. At the moment I have been interested in creating a set of data visualization components in Flex, and to start things off, I give you my Gauge.
It is a basic needle-style gauge that can display any numeric value you want as a needle position. I have created a panel of controls so that you can interactively check out the effect of changing certain styles/properties. Gauge is still under development, and if you can think of some features you would like to see, bugs to be fixed, or indeed any other data visualization components that you think would be cool, drop me a line at alex [ at ] betterthanflex [ dot ] com.

Hi, nice component.
Rather than just a visualization component it would be nice if it could respond to events. ie) click on a number and have it set the value.
