Hello,

Is there a way for the control to format as a user is typing in a value? My requirement is that the thousands separator appears as the user types in the value. Currently, if a user types in 1234, they will not see 1,234 until they leave the control.  I would like them to see the the comma when they are typing. So as they type in 1234 they would see 1, then 12, then 123, and when they type in the 4, they would see 1,234.  Is this possible in this control?

 

Thanks,

Scott

Hi Scott,

Thank you for the detailed description.

Unfortunately, the desired functionality isn't supported. Indeed, the required format can be applied only when the NumericTextBox represents its value but not while entering it. I consulted with the assigned developer for this component and I can confirm, that this is the default behavior of the NumericTextBox, which is by design of our UX team.

I understand that this may be disappointing, but there also isn't a fairly simple workaround that we can suggest in order to achieve the requirement.

Please let us know in case we can provide any further information on this or any other Kendo UI for Angular related topic. Thank you.
