I just want to know if it is possible to make a curve with this?

I dont understand what you mean and what you want to do.

It's a two-float display and he wants it to be in the form of an arc instead of a bar. (At least that was my take.)

The hard part is there appear to be three gradients in the fill - two linear and one sunburst. [edit]There are but they're not all used at the same time... this should make it easier.[/edit]

Getting similar look on an arc might be difficult.

But even the bar indicator would need some trig to work out the geometry of the rotation (or maybe the rotate primitive itself could be used).

Definitely possible but finicky work.

I might be wrong too, as to what u want to do-- but u can use the smooth from the step LFO to create a curve via interpolation. It will be something of a sine, but late

hmmm, i don´t really get what you mean, too. but perhaps one of theese two things is what you are looking for:

the top module is a rotary dial/curved slider,it´s like the fader in your example but instead of a straight line this one can make sliders that are a curve or a circle . Second module is a small float converter that translates linear 0-1 values from a knob to the Curve Values (or any other array of values that you load). the white bar at the curve image shows you the actual step

as Oddson says, that's exactly what I want and besides that, gradients must follow the bar. I believe that this is the hardest part to do.

here is a small example HOW to move the gradient using a filled rectangle.

Is that possible to put a gradient in the first rotary dial of philter5?
