Question on TS_EULER

Hello,
Is there a way by which the timestep of the explicit forward Euler
method can be modified during the iterations? Looking at the source
code of the method, the timestep dt is set when entering the function
TSStep_Euler(). The iteration proceeds with this fixed timestep even
calling TSSetTimeStep() in a monitoring function. I personally find
it's a bit confusing. The actual solution is obtained with fixed
timestep. However, the time returned from calling TSGetTime() takes
into account any modifications made by the user. Thanks.
Regards,
Ningyu
