Question

I use this plugin Knob Jquery. I want to change dial’s value on hover. Is it possible? I looked into the plugin’s documentation, but didn’t find anything useful to solve my problem.

<input disabled class="knob" data-width="120" data-displayPrevious=true data-thickness=".3" value="65">

Change line 341 of the plugin code to also capture “mousemove”, as per the second line here:

                c.bind(
                                "mousedown touchstart mousemove"
                                ,function (e) {
                                    e.preventDefault();
                                    k.startDrag(e);
                                }
                      )

However I feel that this makes the plugin very user un-friendly.

BTW this would be a lot easier if the plugin was actually a jQuery UI widget, because they support methods for altering state on the fly. Or it could provide its own method of altering state, but it doesn’t seem to.
