Variable decimals format

[Clinton Smyth]

Hi

I have 2 questions:

1. How can I allow a variable number of decimals?  The user needs to be able to enter values such as: 1.23   or   1.236654   or  56.  I need to disable/prevent any reformatting - it must just accept the number the user enters (of course still preventing non-numeric characters).
2. Is there a way to dynamically update the number of decimals with javascript after the NumericTextBox has been defined?

Thanks


UPDATE: I figured out the first one by going to http://docs.kendoui.com/getting-started/framework/globalization/numberformatting.  The following did the trick:

var numericTextBox = $(el).width(100).kendoNumericTextBox({

                        format: "#.############",

                        decimals: 10,

                        spinners: false

                    }).data("kendoNumericTextBox");

As a refinement to question 1, I would like to enforce a minimum number of decimal places (say 3).  e.g. if the user enters: 3.4, it'll update it to 3.400, if the user enters 3.12345, then it should be left as is.  I expected the format "0.000#################" to do this.  It adds the zeros as required but it then goes on to round the number to 3 decimal places as well (as if I'd given the format "0.000").  This appears to be a bug?
