Setting Caret Position

Question

Dears,
How do I set the Caret position to a required position in the SpinnerNumberModel? Do I need to use setDot() and NavigationFilter? The position should be set as soon as Spinner is constructed.
Please help.
Thanks,
Raj

Hi,
I didn't get it work too, but this workaround seems to work.
