As the images of the hand held Omnimeter show there are two movable sections. The Telemeter Scale portion and the AoB part on the right. Both have an indicator (pointer) to line up against either the Height / Length scale for the Telemeter reference or the Range scale for the AoB part.

To answer your question razark yes it can be done. Although for the American side, the number of dials that can be referenced and manipulated are limited. For instance it would have been fairly easy to make just one dial for each part of the Omnimeter, however you need to use both parts together if your finding AoB. This means you have to reference the two dials separately so they move independently of each other. Well I'll tell you that's no easy matter when the game looks at the center of rotation as the center of the dial and any part movable gets moved in unison with another part using this center point. The Was-Is tool you show or even my AoB Calculator could be placed into the game but I'm going to say the effort to find more than two dials to work independently may not happen.

Many of the dials found within the American side of play are earmarked as being "changed by code". This means the dials characteristics are not controlled by the Dials.cfg file but rather by the game code which we don't have access to. We're SOL when using them for our own projects. Others are linked to the American Position Keeper, which depending whether it's turned on or off the dials use for other purposes are limited. Then there's the space to place the dials onto a page. I'm still not sure if I like the Omnimeter placed below the Attack Data Tool or above it. The point is it can be pushed out of the way, but the American side is limited to dragging objects around like the German side is able to.

So yes, I think multi dials can be placed into various parts of the game but some areas may not allow this to occur such as the 3D rendered game stations of the Radar or Sonar screens.
