‘IgNumericEditor’ is designed to display a single number formatted in a special way (using decimal and group separators).

However, ‘igDataEditor’ is designed to display several different numbers grouped together. In this case we have 3 different numbers – hour, minutes and seconds. Spinner could be used to increment any of that numbers. This is how the spinner works in different scenarios:

-          If the editor doesn’t have focus and there is a day number present – spinner increments the day;

-          If the editor doesn’t have focus and there is NO day number present – spinner increments the smallest number, in this case the seconds;

-          If the editor has focus – this spinner increments the number where cursor is located. This is the case you described in your reply.

I’ve prepared a Fiddle where you could test those behaviors (see ‘Around’ editor):

Take a look at the provided sample and let me know whether it works for you. If you need further assistance, please provide more details: Ignite UI version, browser used, code sample, so we can investigate your case and provide you a better support.

The date editor does not satisfy my need. I initially used that with the spinner, however, it takes 3 clicks to increment the seconds (one click on the control, which selects all, another click on the seconds, and a third click on the spinner up arrow). That is not user-friendly. The numeric editor would require only one click to increment the seconds value.
