When one holds down the X key down on a keyboard the result is multiple instances of the character X. I was expecting that holding down the left mouse button over the down button on the spinner would result in multiple activations of the downclick event. Experimentation shows that this is not the case and that there can be many changes to the value with the downclick event firing only once. The InteractiveChange event will fire repeatedly while the down button is held down with the mouse. Raising the InteractiveChange event with the desired change amount might be a way to achieve what I want. When I attempted this I needed to add a parameter to the InteractiveChange event. Experimentation showed that raising the event did change the value but the SpinnerLowValue is ignored. I guess the conclusion is that the spinner value change logic is not exposed and the programmer must add the logic externally.
It should have been possible to have raising the DownClick event start execution at the beginning of the value change logic instead of after it. I suppose this approach would break someone's code but I haven't figured out how. My understanding has improved.
