I am developing an app & just built its logical part. Now I want to design this app like in famous timer apps. See Links for examples:

http://goo.gl/Bskgt
http://goo.gl/N3qS1

The thing I want is the Circle that fills with every trigger of some event or with increment of number. I actually don't know that is it animation part (like to b built in flash or what) or just possible by coding in android itself using its inbuilt properties and features. So anybody if tell explain me what tools are used or any reference tutorial tthat can explain things from bottom. I really don't know any thing of designing.

EDIT: I want to know how this circle works. Fills color at each specified interval. Combination of Coding + Design

It's most likely CSS3, jQuery, and perhaps Raphael. Probably a canvas object. Better asked at stackoverflow.com – Scott Jan 25 at 19:36
It might be just me, but I can't figure out what is it that you are asking. Is this question about designing the circle clock, or about coding the functionality? – Joonas Jan 25 at 19:37

Since you are talking about mobile development with Android, this would be a better question in StackOverflow. Although technically this could be done in Flash I wouldn't recommend it. It will be slow and a lot of things coded in AS3 would not be compatible with the Android OS. If you decide not to code it in CSS3/jQuery then I would mockup and sketch the design first to see how you could create it with assets used from the design. Then at that point we could help you if you have questions. – Mindsparks Jan 25 at 19:46
I'd definitely check out raphael. I haven't used raphael much, but I remembered that they have similar demo in their website raphaeljs.com/polar-clock.html – Joonas Jan 25 at 19:49
