<a-assets>
<img id="bezel" src="./assets/bezel.png">
</a-assets>
<a-entity dial="size:0.30; src:#bezel; radius:0.95; thetaStart:135; thetaEnd:315;"></a-entity>
To make the dial increase counter-clockwise, set scale="-1 1 1". To put 0 at the bottom, set scale="1 -1 1". You may need to reverse the src image also.

The height and width, in meters. default 0.25
An image of the bezel, numerals, screws, scratches in the glass, etc., or icon if you're using this as a button.

Image should be square.
outer radius of pie wedge (or circular bar) and background disk, relative to overall size of dial. default 0.98
Leave at 0 for a pie wedge, set 0 < innerRadius < radius to generate a circular bar instead of a pie wedge. default 0
start angle of pie wedge (or circular bar), in degrees clockwise from top. May be negative. default 0
end angle of pie wedge (or circular bar), in degrees clockwise from top. May be negative. default 230
