I would like to have a Gibson GA40 style Dial, with the arc and writes on it, between my Visio Shapes

Someone has tips on how I can draw it ?



Many Thanks

Franco

Play with WordArt in a Word document. Then paste into your Visio drawing.
A schematic, layout, and hi-rez pics are very useful for troubleshooting your amp. Don't wait to be asked. JUST DO IT!

I don't know that program, I'll give it a look and I'll try

Thanks Steve

Many years ago I was able to do that on Autocad, but now I remember nothing about ......

EDIT: WOW - There is a nice interaction between what you do in Word and Visio, I've just discovered that to build the arc in Word is very easy and to have it on Visio is very simple, only Copy and Paste and in Visio you can resize the shape as it was created on Visio, very very good, now I must spent a bit of time to have the rounded writes, seems that with a bit of patience I'll obtain what I was looking for

Thanks Again Steve
