Overview

A read-only property that represents the current value of the StepperWidget. This value is any number from the stepper’s minimum value to the stepper’s maximum value.

Gotchas

To read the stepper’s value from outside of its listener function, use the object:getValue() function.

Example

-- Handle stepper events
local function onPress( event )

    print( "Stepper's current value is:", event.value )
end

-- Create a default stepper
local stepper = widget.newStepper
{
    left = 140,
    top = 235,
    initialValue = 0,
    minimumValue = 0,
    maximumValue = 50,
    onPress = onPress
}
