Gauge display

Mon Jan 02, 2017 9:57 pm

I have a Pi and a touchscreen that will be used as a control panel, so gauges, buttons, dials/sliders, that type of thing. I have always used wxPython for GUIs (not on a Pi), but the gauges included in wx don't seem to work on the Pi. Also, the wx look is fine if functionality is the only requirement and aesthetics don't matter much. Is there a 'preferred' package for a modern looking GUI including gauges with a Pi? I highly prefer Python if possible as that is the only language I have significant experience with, but am open to other language suggestions if there aren't any good Python candidates. TIA.
