Tab stop and arrows in publisher

[Poziomka]

I found the problem in Publisher. I can't increase or decrease the value of the tab box with the up and down arrows in the Edit Text Style palette.

What OS? If Windows, it seems to work for me:

It works for me on macOS Sonoma.

I think this was a bug in one of the 2.x versions but was fixed a while ago. Are you using the 2.4 beta?

I cannot replicate this either on Mac or WIndows. Could you provide a screen recording and check with build you are using please.

I have not been clear. I click the up and down arrows on my keyboard, not the little arrows next to the field value! And other fields it works, why not in this one?

May be a Windows bug. It works for me on Mac OS 12.7.2 Using the keyboard arrows changes the value and keeps the focus in the "Apply" number box, so I can increase the value multiple times with several keyboard arrow presses.

But on macOS the arrow keys don't work in the popup's field. This is the field that the spinner controls didn't work on until a recent beta. It looks like a similar issue impacted the arrow keys.
