Detent stop on knob control

I need to prevent the knob control from turning the
"wrong" way, i.e., if it is a 0..10 knob, and it's
set at 0, I don't want the user to twist it from 0
directly to 10 (ccw) without going in the 1,2,3,..,9
direction (cw). Twisting it the "wrong" way could
have a dramatic effect if was controlling a hydraulic
ram or other heavy equipment.

I know I can fix this in an event case, but I'm looking
for an easy answer before I spend time fixing it.

Why not just use a Slide Control instead of a knob?
It would seem more intuitive (I think) to have a
hydraulic ram position to be controlled by a slider.
