Description

TCustomUpDown - base class for TUpDown - a pair of arrow-like buttons which are used to increment or decrement some controlled variable; often attached to a scroll-bar but can also control a digital numeric display.

The control definition itself does not specify the variable upon which the buttons operate. The application programmer is responsible for supplying an event handler for OnClick to determine which button has been selected (designated btNext or btPrev) and incrementing or decrementing the variable in the control with which the UpDown is associated.

The amount by which the variable is changed is set by the integer property Increment with the optional multiplier Thousands (a boolean property).

For example the UpDown control may be used to move a slider up and down a scale by a specified amount for each click; alternatively a number may be displayed in a text box and clicking the buttons of the UpDown control may increment or decrement the number displayed by a specified amount.
