Hi,  
I have done speedometer in flash works fine by entering the value. But my client wants to change the color as pointer moves:

0-20: Dark Green (Very Cheap)  
20-40: Light Green (Cheap)  
40-60: Yellow (Spare Valuation)  
60-80: Orange (Expensive)  
80-100: Dark Red (Very Expensive)

I know value has to be converted into radians/ degrees.

Below is the link which i have created and as2 is below and you can see source file attached! Please help me!!
