StringGadget : #PB_String_Float

Flype · Post by **Flype** » Fri Aug 26, 2005 1:17 pm

is it possible to add a new flag for the stringgagdet

-> #PB_String_Float which will allow only 'numeric' characters and only one '.' or ','

but at this moment which is the best way to enter a float value in stringgadget ?

Good suggestion. For the moment, i would check the EventType() 'Change' and remove the unallowed character (but it could be a bit jerky as the text will be displayed then removed). Another way is to do a post validation check.

I do something similar for a mask but then the carat position is lost. Any way to handle that?

Yeah, and I also want it to support negative values.
The ones with '-' before the number...

See this post. I am hoping for two additional parameters for the StringGadgetl Filters and Masks
