Dials & Meters

This example demonstrates the versitility of the Meter widget. All of the example below were created using the same class. All of the examples below include a supplemental label using the labeltext parameter, and all but the first example use the textappend parameter to add the ‘gb’, ‘%’, and degrees symbol. Finally, all of the examples use the parameter interactive=True which turns the meter into a dial that can be manipulated directly with a mouse-click or drag. The theme used for the examples below is cosmo.

top-left: the metertype is semi which gives the meter a semi-circle arc. The meterstyle is primary.TLabel.
top-right: the stripethickness is 10 pixels to give it a segmented appearance. The meterstyle is info.TLabel.
bottom-left: the stripethickness is 2 pixels to give it a very thin segmented appearance. The meterstyle is success.TLabel.
bottom-right: this example has a custom arc, with the arcrange at 180, the arcoffset at -180 and the wedgethickness at 5 pixels in order to create a wedge style indicator that rests at the meter value. The meterstyle is danger.TLabel.
