It would be useful to have a dial-widget without bounds.
I wanted to use it for an angle-input and it is realy bad, if the user wants to change from 355 to 5 degrees, and has to go round the whole circle.
It would be realy nice to have an option for this.

This is easy to do with the existing functionality.

Make your callback something like this:

void angle_cb(Widget *v, void *ob)
{
        Dial *sd;


        sd = (Dial*)v;

        float val;
        float angle;

        val = (float) sd->value();

        // Limit values, this makes the dial to rotate without limits
        if(val>0.75) sd->value(val-0.5);
        if(val<0.25) sd->value(val+0.5);

        // Get the range back
        angle = 720 * val;
        if (angle >= 360.0) angle-=360.0;

// Do something with angle

}

When you create the dial you do it like this:

test_dir = new LineDial(505,130,200,200,"Test dial angles");
test_dir->angles(-180,540);
test_dir->value(0.5);
test_dir->callback(angle_cb,this);
