Thanks this is great – however my maths isn’t that good, I have made a larger version of the wheel with 8 segments. I am pretty sure I changed all the relevant lines, however, my wheel spins backwards and too slow!! Any ideas what I messed up?? Been looking for hours!!

This is an awesome piece of work! But I do agree with your last comment about getSelectedValue()

I’m trying to change the location of the selected sign from the 12:00 position to the 3:00 position, but have had no luck.

Can you advise?

It’s Greatly Appreciated!

Ok, I managed to make it spin continuously, and even increase/decrease the spinning speed…

Do you have any idea, as to how can we increase/decrease the diameter or the wheel and change the number of wedges depending upon some configurable global variables like:

var totalWedges = 12;

and depending upon this value, the li gets populated.

Thanks.

Hi,

Firstly, you are an awesome guy. I have been tweaking around with iScroll and the DatePicker and they are just amazing.

This is one more feather to your hat, and it is damn excellent.

I was just wondering like is it possible to control the spinning? Like can we start the spinning on click of a button, and create some random duration for the spinning time.

Let me know if you think this is possible with a possible path towards that direction, and I’d love to move ahead.

Thanks in advance.

wow, something went wrong in my second paragraph.
of course I meant: (hasTouch ? e.touches[0].pageX : e.pageX) and (hasTouch ? e.touches[0].pageY : e.pageY)

Hi, making this work on chrome or safari (webkit browsers) isn’t all that hard. Compatibility with a desktop is realized by changing the ‘touchstart’, ‘touchend’, ‘touchmove’ events by their desktop counterparts (see iscroll).

Furthermore an extended replace (2 occurrences) for e.touches[0[.pageX by (hasTouch ? (hasTouch ? e.touches[0].pageX : e.pageX) : e.pageX) and same goes for e.touches[0].pageY by (hasTouch ? (hasTouch ? e.touches[0].pageY : e.pageY) does the trick.

I noticed that on occasion I get a returned 13th value ( as 12 which does not exist) on what should be 0 (zero). Could there be an error in the “selected” logic?
