+## Description
+
+While editing RadTimeOnlyPicker, it will not automatically select the next time part as the user types. In the following article, we will demonstrate how to enable the auto-select next part feature in the RadTimeOnlyPicker control.
+
+## Solution
+
+To access and apply the `AutoSelectNextPart` property to the RadTimeOnlyPicker, use the `TimeOnlyPickerElement`'s `MaskedEditBox.Provider`. Set the property as shown below:
+
+````C#
+MaskTimeOnlyProvider maskTimeOnlyProvider = this.radTimeOnlyPicker1.TimeOnlyPickerElement.MaskedEditBox.Provider as MaskTimeOnlyProvider;
+maskTimeOnlyProvider.AutoSelectNextPart = true;
+
+````
+
+This snippet retrieves the provider for the `RadTimeOnlyPicker` and enables the `AutoSelectNextPart` property.
