Press ctrl, hold the mouse button, release ctrl but not the button... That's
quite a hidden feature. I do respect your choice, but that confirms what I said:
it's designed for a specific purpose, it needs some more options to become a
generic widget that can accommodate the various tastes mentioned on this thread.
Also you can use your own images (with rcstyle
files) with your own size
for the knob's, two different sizes for the knobs are possible. You can
change the Image during runtime.
Changing the background image isn't sufficient to rival with the phat knob
visual animation, which provide a rotary level meter, as found in many modern
software. Check out the underlying pixmap(s):

Main author of libgxw is Andreas Degert, it's
in Alpha stage, and open
for suggestions.
But indeed we see the need for a GTK Audio Widget library because we
need it for our project, so we start to create on.
IMO you should get some inspiration from Phat..

Okay, when you have generic Desktop rc-style files in mind, maybe libgxw
isn't the solution, I have more something like this in mind:
I guess with a ordinary GTK RC Desktop style file it will look ugly.
