BTW, that's one of the many terms I try to avoid using. Normally it's
not necessary for a clear explanation. I think the Forms chapter is
one of the few that still includes the term, so if you wanted to
revise those bits, feel free! --Jean

A "spinner" or "spin button" is an input field that displays little up- and
down-arrows on the right side. It's most often used for integers and dates.
The user can click the arrow buttons to make incremental (and decremental,
if that's a word) adjustments to the value. Clicking and holding on an
arrow
button causes many rapid changes in the value for coarser adjustments. I
believe the analogy is to dials on a slot machine, but most implementations
don't actually show the values spinning.

Can anyone tell me please what a "spinner" is in relation to creating
forms
using Writer? I've never come across this term before, and how does it
work?
