suggestion: video overlay Arc gauge: alternate negative number rendering

soulpear

RaceChrono has an "Arc" gauge for video overlays; a circular bar graph renders from a minimum to maximum value.

The suggestion would be to provide an option to change the way it renders negative numbers.

Given a hypothetical example gauge from min -50 to max +100, here are some ASCII representations. Please imagine a fixed-space font (or copy-paste it into a fixed-space font editor/terminal):

Existing implementation:
-50
-25 #
0 ##
+50 ####
+100 ######

Alternative implementation
-50 %%
-25 %
0
+50 ##
+100 ####

Ideally, the negative numbers would have a different "Indicator Color" from the positive numbers (as shown in the above % versus #).

As described, I believe the alternate implementation would look the same as the current implementation for non-negative numbers. However, I presume that it is strongly desirable to default to existing negative number behavior for users that want to keep the existing approach.

Thank you for the consideration.

Just to clarify, when I said "the alternate implementation would look the same as the current implementation for non-negative numbers", what I meant to say was "for non-negative MIN/MAX numbers".
