NumericUpDown Box question(s)

The javascript code you attached calls select() when a valid digit is typed:

 if ('+-1234567890'.indexOf(key) == -1)
    e.stop();  <--- this is when an invalid digit is pressed.
else
    this.select();   <--- select() is not a valid function. "this" is a widget not an element.

should be:

 if ('+-1234567890'.indexOf(key) == -1){
    e.stop();
    this.selectAllText();
 }

Hey

First of all: Thx for your solution. I extended it for my needs, but having trouble with a specific behaivour.

I changed the code from your sample with two little things to show you the problem. Not sure, if it is a bug or not.

I attached in JavaScript, that when a “wrong” value is inserted, then the whole text should be selected.

And in code behind: when the control gets entered, then also the whole text should be selected.

Now, when I enter the textbox, everything gets selected as expected. When the first input is a “wrong” (e.g. “a”) and then a correct value is used, then it get’s attached at the end and not overwritten:

The starting value = 0,00

When I enter a wrong and then 1 it becomes => 0,001 and it does not overwrite the 0,00 to => 1 as expected.

Could you please check, if this is a bug or a problem by my code!?

THX a lot – Have a nice start of the week

Just checked in Winforms and I can’t see any way to format a NumericUpDown. In Winforms you can also type a decimal value when the Decimals property is set to zero, the result will be a number without decimals, which is correct. Wisej does exactly the same. NumericUpDown cannot be formatted using custom strings in Winforms and in Wisej – the text has to be parsed into a valid number on the client.

You can format a data bound TextBox control (like in Winforms) and use “p” for percentages or “+#0.00;-#0.00” to show +/-.

With Wisej you can also attach a javascript event to stop “.” or “,” from being typed and force only numeric characters.  And you can show a custom +/- button inside the field. You need to create a custom control.

I attached some sample code you can use and adapt to your requirements.
