GridColumn for any numeric fields (decimal/int) have increment/decrement arrows?

[Rob]

I have no idea when this started but I suspect when we upgraded to 11.x control suite.

<GridColumn Field=@nameof(BookingEquipmentCommodityModel.ItemCount) Title="Count" Width="1.5rem" />

As you can see, there is no numeric template and this is a simple GridColumn, but I'm getting increment arrows on any column that is numeric (Int, Decimale, Double, etc.)?

I don't want them and have no idea why I'm getting them since I don't define the column with a template for TelerikNumericTextBox??

In my attempt (which failed) to work-around this issue, I setup a template for the column using TelerikNumericaTextBox to see I could disable the arrows ... and that didn't work either?

                                <GridColumn Field=@nameof(BookingEquipmentCommodityModel.CommodityWeight) Editable="true" Title="Weight" Width="3rem">
                                    <Template Context="cwContext">
                                        @{
                                            var cw = (BookingEquipmentCommodityModel)cwContext;
                                        }
                                        <TelerikNumericTextBox @bind-Value="@cw.CommodityWeight" Arrows="false"></TelerikNumericTextBox>
                                    </Template>
                                </GridColumn>

still get the arrows?

Help?

Hi Rob,

The Grid renders numeric editors with arrows by default and I don't remember the opposite behavior. At least this is what I see from versions 3.x from early 2022.

If you want to remove the arrows in edit mode, use an <EditorTemplate>, not a display <Template>.

Thanks Dimo, I'll use the Editor Template.

I'd like to request that the default behavior for Numeric fields in a Grid or Numeric TextBox should NOT default to having arrows.  In the 40 years I've been coding, Up/Down arrows on numeric input has NEVER been the majority case desire for end user requirements.

Hmm, changing the default behavior requires substantial customer demand that doesn't exist at this point. Moreover:

• It will be strange for the NumericTextBox itself to have arrows by default, while the NumericTextBox editor to not have.
• The default <input type="number" /> also renders arrows by default.
