Hi. I’ve been trying to figure out how to bring in a number from an xml file into a dynamic analog meter. The pointer is supposed to stop at the number, much like a car gauge.

I tried asking for help but didn’t get much. I’m offering $15 I have some of the code done. If you think it’ll cost more perhaps we can negotiate.  
please PM me.
