would be cool to see some screenshots...
I don't think magnifying dials can be done in SH3 - at least not very well. After seeing a different thread on the matter I tried to think of a way with the 6 main dials but the best I managed was to replace the white-grey "new setting" needle with a full rotating dial which was much bigger than the normal dial, so that when you click on a small dial it becomes a big dial which rotates... but there would be problems with that solution: only the centre of the big dial would actually be workable (drag the mouse outside the original small dial which is behind the big dial and the big dial would disappear) and also the big dial would stick around for too long after being set at a new value. So instead I've come up with an alternative solution... screenies to come probably mid week (haven't been able to work on it this weekend )
