TimeField Spin Button Control

Post by melhuffman »

I inserted a TimeField, enabled the Spin Button and Repeat function; set the repeat time to 125ms.
But, every time I open the template the time will not update using the spin button for a "repetitive" action. I have edited the document several times by editing the TimeField controls; disable the spin button or repeat function, then re-enable it. While I keep the document open, the spin button works. When I save the template and re-open it the spin button's repeat function does not work.

What's the secret to keeping the spin button's repeat function active with repeated opening/closing of the template?

Specifically, the time field is third in the tabbing sequence, in the upper right corner of the form.

All other fields work "as advertised."

This is a public forum, you can't restrict the use of the document. If there is content you want to protect, just remove it. Make a sample file instead, leaving only the parts you're having an issue with. Some hints here: (see How to attach a document here). You can edit your previous post, delete the attachment and upload another one.

the attachment has been removed.

I am not going to post an edited portion of the original template.

Hopefully someone has experienced similar problems and has found a fix...
