possibility to display a 360° Control

I'd like to display a circular control for the complete 360°. Is there a possibility ?
The numeric dial or gauge controls leave some degrees on the bottom .. so that the needle cannot show all degree positions.
 
Thanks

Its just a standard numeric gauge, with the start/end points set to the same position in the control editor.
 
You can change the colour of the needle at design time in the control editor - click on the paintbrush icon in the Quick Edit window then right-click with the brush over the needle. I don't think there is a direct way to show segments in different colours, but by making the control background transparant you could draw it over the top of a canvas/bitmap which had the colour scheme you want.
