RadNumericTextBox culture compatibility Issues

[Hemant Yadav]

Hi,

RadNumericTextBox 

 

 is not working properly when culture changed to French - It increases extra zeros.


<EditItemTemplate> 

 

 

    <telerik:RadNumericTextBox ID="SearchAreaTopLeftXRadNumericTextBox" Runat="server" 
                Text='<%# Bind("SearchAreaTopLeftY") %>'

 

 

                Skin="Office2007" MaxLength="6" MaxValue="999.99" MinValue="0" Width="80px" LabelCssClass=""

 

 

        meta:resourcekey="SearchAreaTopLeftXRadNumericTextBoxResource1">

 

 

       <NumberFormat DecimalDigits="2" GroupSeparator="" />
      </telerik:RadNumericTextBox>
</EditItemTemplate>

For e.g. Lets say there is a decimal column "SearchAreaTopLeftY" and it has a value 1.00 (in en-US culture)
when we switch to French culture (fr-FR) its value becomes 1,00 and that is valid as in french culture period is represented by comma.

The problems comes when we edit the column we find a value 100,00 instead of 1,00 in RADNumericTextBox. I don't know from where it is added extra zeros.

Also while updating it gives an error:

Hello Hemant,

I would suggest you to try to bind the numeric textbox by its DbValue property instead of its Text property.
So your code should look something like this:

<telerik:RadNumericTextBox ID="SearchAreaTopLeftXRadNumericTextBox" Runat="server"
                DbValue='<%# Bind("SearchAreaTopLeftY") %>'
                Skin="Office2007" MaxLength="6" MaxValue="999.99" MinValue="0" Width="80px" LabelCssClass=""
        meta:resourcekey="SearchAreaTopLeftXRadNumericTextBoxResource1">
       <NumberFormat DecimalDigits="2" GroupSeparator="" />
      </telerik:RadNumericTextBox>

Using similar declaration with French (fr-FR) and US (en-US) cultures worked as expected on my side.

I hope this helps.

Thanks Martin - I discoverd the dbValue and it is working fine (although the intellisence doesn't show that property).

Martin now i am facing a different error while updating decimal values through this NumericTextBox while in French culture. My problem is same as given under link:

Hello Hemant,

The forum thread you quote provides some suggestions about resolving this issue. Please let me know if you tried to follow these recommendations. In case they are useless in your scenario I would suggest you to send us a simplified sample project demonstrating the erroneous behaviour.

I am using a simple RadNumericTextBox. But none of the properties are working. Below is the code snippet:My requirements:1) Group Separator 2) SelectionOnFocus = "SelectAll"I have tried everything for above two but none of the things worked.Observtions: 1) maxlength property is working if i use. 2) minvalue property is also working. 3) Decimal value is also working.Can anyone help me out on this. It is very much needed.

[Viktor Tachev]

Hi Shivam,

Would you elaborate in more detail what is not working? What is the behavior that you are observing and what is the expected result? Please describe the scenario you are trying to implement.

I would appreciate it if you could provide your markup with the related code-behind.

Hi, Below is the snippet of my code.
 
<telerik:RadNumericTextBox ID="Test" Runat="server" width = "125px" Type="Number" SelectionOnFocus="SelectAll">
<NumberFormat GroupSeparator="." />
</telerik:RadNumericTextBox>

I was just trying to use the default properties such as selectionOnfocus = "selectAll", GroupSeparator, etc. But none of them worked until i added Page_Init() event in code behind. Do you have any idea of impact of Page_Init() event on the above code ?

[Viktor Tachev]

Hi Shivam,

Would you open the browser console by pressing F12 and see if there are any errors listed there? If there are JavaScript errors on the page they will prevent the client-side scripts for RadNumericTextBox from working properly.

With this said, the behavior you describe seems rather strange. I tried to replicate it, however, I was unable to. For reference I am attaching a sample project I used for testing. It is working as expected on my end. Give it a try and let me know how it works for you.

I would appreciate it if you can describe what needs to be modified in the project so that the issue is reproduced.
