Spinner Tool

A Spinner object provides a method for paging through a fixed set of values.

The range of values is defined by the MinimumEq and MaximumEq properties. These values must be constants. Clicking the Spinner’s arrow buttons increase and decrease the value. The increment or decrement amount is specified by the IncrAccelerator property. If the object’s WrapAround property is set to 1 - Yes, the value will increment to the top or bottom of the range (depending on the click direction) once the end of the range is met. Otherwise, no action will occur if the user continues to click in the same direction.

A Spinner object can be attached to an Edit Box to make the value visible. This requires that the Spinner’s EditBuddy property be set to 1 - Yes, the Tabstop properties of both objects to be set to 1 - Yes, and the Spinner follow the Edit Box in the tab order. Tab order is set using the Objects option on the Layout menu.

By default a Spinner object uses decimal values. It can be configured to use hexadecimal values by changing its DecimalBase property to 1 - No.

Script is required for an action to occur when using a Spinner object. Write the script for EventChange of the Spinner object’s Edit Buddy. See Scripting in CygNet Studio for examples.
