Spinners are one of the very first things explained in the Max tutorial

manual, as in page 1 through 5.  Standard Windows spinners are numeric

values with adjacent up-down arrows.  Clicking an arrow increments or

decrements the value.  This functionality was extended slightly by 

the makers of Max to allow you to click-drag-up to increase the value,

or click-drag-down to decrease the value more quickly and easily than

single clicks on the arrows.
