Until then, if someone can tell me how to convert it to the one that allows the alpha level based on the center item...
local my_strip = SimpleArtStrip( my_config["whlselect"], 5, 450,607,250,510,5);
my_strip.preserve_aspect_ratio=true;
I want the wheel to cover that area of the screen with 5 images, and the centered image highlighted and the ones further away progressively dimmer.
