NumericTextBox with free decimals

[Giovanni]

Hi, is it possible to use a kendo UI NumericTextBox with free decimals?

I would like to allow the user to input 0, 1 or any number of decimals and I want to see all in the textbox.

Is it possible?

Hello, Giovanni,

Thank you for reaching out to us!

If I understand your question correctly, you want the users to be able to input as many numbers as they want after the decimal sign. Is that correct?

In order to achieve this, the format and decimals configurations can be implemented for the NumericTextBox. You can take a look at the Custom Number formats documentation to see how you can display one or more digits after the decimal point.

Dojo

For your convenience, below you can find a Dojo link to a working version of the desired formatting and a detailed explanation of the implementation.

Explanation

First Step: Choose an arbitrary number to represent the desired amount of digits after the decimal sign: 

 

Second Step: With the help of the "#" digit placeholder (reference the Custom Number Formats page), achieve the desired format for the displayed number: 

Third Step: Configure the format and decimals functions:

Let me know if this works for you and if you have any further questions.
