[Solved] NumericType Change by JavaScript

[Baatezu]

Is it possible to change the numeric type through javascript?

[Baatezu]

I did a(n obvious) work around - created a second radNumeric and wrapped them both in panels and just have the panel display (inline:none) swapped.

Still interested if it is possible though.

Hi Baatezu,

It is possible but with an ugly "hack" kind of way. Here is a sample code:

 <script type="text/javascript">
        function ChangeType()
        {
            var numeric1 = $find("<%=RadNumericTextBox1.ClientID %>");
            numeric1.get_numberFormat().NegativePattern = "-n %";
            numeric1.get_numberFormat().PositivePattern = "n %";
        }
    </script>
        <asp:ScriptManager ID="ScriptManager1" runat="server">
        </asp:ScriptManager>
        <telerik:RadNumericTextBox ID="RadNumericTextBox1" Type="Currency" runat="server"
           Width="125px" Culture="English (United States)">
            <NumberFormat AllowRounding="True" />
        </telerik:RadNumericTextBox>
        <asp:Button ID="Button1" runat="server" Text="Button" OnClientClick="ChangeType(); return false;" />

More info on Negative/Positive Pattern can be found in this example.
