>>>So far, I have tracked the problem to the fact that in the InteractiveChange the value of the field bound to this control does not change.

Imagine three controls on a form: a Spinner to show Quantity, a Textbox to show Unit Price and a Textbox to show Extended Price. User enters Unit Price and then clicks in the Spinner control clicking mouse on Up or Down wheel. As he/she changes the quantity I want to show the Extended price, obviously as a product of unit price and quantity. So I put the following simple code in the InteractiveChange:

I see. Using field value doesn't work because field doesn't yet comitted the new value. You can force it with:

this.value = this.value
