Depending on Mode one of them is fixed and the other is rotating\&. If not \fBisReadOnly()\fP the dial can be rotated by dragging the mouse or using keyboard inputs (see \fBQwtAbstractSlider::keyPressEvent()\fP)\&. A dial might be wrapping, what means a rotation below/above one limit continues on the other limit (f\&.e compass)\&. The scale might cover any arc of the dial, its values are related to the \fBorigin()\fP of the dial\&. .PP Often dials have to be updated very often according to values from external devices\&. For these high refresh rates \fBQwtDial\fP caches as much as possible\&. For derived classes it might be necessary to clear these caches manually according to attribute changes using \fBinvalidateCache()\fP\&. .PP \fBSee also\fP .RS 4 \fBQwtCompass\fP, \fBQwtAnalogClock\fP, \fBQwtDialNeedle\fP .RE .PP \fBNote\fP .RS 4 The controls and dials examples shows different types of dials\&. .PP QDial is more similar to \fBQwtKnob\fP than to \fBQwtDial\fP .RE .PP .PP Definition at line 50 of file qwt_dial\&.h\&. .SH "Member Enumeration Documentation" .PP .SS "enum \fBQwtDial::Mode\fP" .PP Mode controlling whether the needle or the scale is rotating\&. .PP \fBEnumerator\fP .in +1c .TP \fB\fIRotateNeedle \fP\fP The needle is rotating\&. .TP \fB\fIRotateScale \fP\fP The needle is fixed, the scales are rotating\&. .PP Definition at line 86 of file qwt_dial\&.h\&. .SS "enum \fBQwtDial::Shadow\fP" .PP Frame shadow\&.
