Greetings.
We are using a RadNumericUpDown in a Silverlight application. Usually users enter positive decimal values. A French user reported being unable to enter negative values. We have tested this and found the following
- Normally (for example US or UK keyboard) the minus key toggles the sign of the value in the control
- When set to French, users press the shift key to obtain number characters - the control behaves correctly
- When set to French, the minus key is in the same position as the 6 key in US/UK keyboards and it does not toggle the sign of the value
- The minus key in the numeric keypad work correctly but most of our users use laptops and this is not an option
- This issue was replicated by setting the keyboard to French and with the OnScreen keyboard
- The minus character can be pasted into the control.
- The RadNumericUpDown does not appear to have any culture properties.
We have not found any mention of this issue in the Telerik forums (most keyboard issues related to decimal or thousands separators and are culture related)
Can anyone else replicate this issue? Does anyone have a work around besides copy-pasting the minus key?
Thanks in advance
Tom
