If you format a field to show it as a currency you must now enter the number as $5.00 and not just 5. It won’t keep the value. Version 8 and 9 work fine.
Yes I have this problem too!
I have a EURO-sign in my field, like M-^@ 25,00
now you have to type indeed (in a new record) the EURO sign too, or else the value will turn red.
Can this be fixed?
and this counts for 0.00% for example too. The % sign has to be entered…
are you sure this did work as you want in before RC10?
yep 100%
fixed in the next release (RC11 if possible else the one after that)
We changed it now to give developers complete control
you can now say what the display and the edit format should be..
You can type for the format property:
displayformat|editformat
for example:
$#.00-|#.##
then the value will be displayed with a $ symbol and then the number with min and max 2 digits.
When editing you see only the number and you only have to type the number..
also the minus sign can now be in front or at the back of the number.
will be in RC11
That is really nice Johan, thanks!
