RadNumericUpDown acepts comma AND dot

[Valentin]

Hello,

I want to know if is it possible to do that RadNumericUpDown accepts dot AND comma ?

I see this code on the web :

if (e.KeyChar.Equals('.') || e.KeyChar.Equals(','))
{
    e.KeyChar = ((System.Globalization.CultureInfo)System.Globalization.CultureInfo.CurrentCulture).NumberFormat.NumberDecimalSeparator.ToCharArray()[0];
}

With this code, i did it :

private void tbOpeSurValeur_KeyDown(object sender, KeyEventArgs e)
{
    if (e.Key == Key.Decimal || e.Key == Key.OemComma)
    {
        e.Key = (Key)((System.Globalization.CultureInfo)System.Globalization.CultureInfo.CurrentCulture).NumberFormat.NumberDecimalSeparator.ToCharArray()[0];
    }
}

But, 2 problems :
- This is not 'e.KeyChar' but 'e.Key'
- 'e.Key' is in ReadOnly, I can't change his value..

Can you help me ?
Thank you.

Valentin.

Hi Valentin,

RadNumericUpDown does not provide a way to set two decimal separators out of the box.

However, you could use the following approach to achieve the desired - subscribe to the PreviewKeyDown event of the NumericUpDown and in its handler insert the NumberDecimalSeparator of the NumericUpDown control whenever "," or "." are typed in the input field. In other words to insert for example "." in the both cases. Here is some sample code snippet:

​

private void numeric_PreviewKeyDown(object sender, KeyEventArgs e)
{
    var num = sender as RadNumericUpDown;

    if (e.Key == Key.Decimal || e.Key == Key.OemComma || e.Key == Key.OemPeriod)
    {
        var textBox = e.OriginalSource as System.Windows.Controls.TextBox;
        if (!textBox.Text.Contains(num.NumberDecimalSeparator))
        {
            textBox.Text += num.NumberDecimalSeparator;
            textBox.CaretIndex = textBox.Text.Length;
        }
        e.Handled = true;
    }
}

You will need to set directly set NumberDecimalSeparator property of the NumericUpDown: in this case.

numeric.NumberDecimalSeparator = ".";

​I hope this helps.
