Where is documentation on "format"?

[Christopher]

For NumericTextBox configuration of "format",
 the total documentaton is:
"Specifies the format of the number. Any valid number format is allowed."
This is useless.

Came here with this very question.  Where is the documentation?

Hello guys,

The number formatting documentation could be found in "Getting Started" section >> Framework >> Globalization. Here is the direct link:

• http://docs.kendoui.com/getting-started/framework/globalization/numberformatting 

All of the formats described there could be used with Kendo widgets that support format configuration.

All the best,

That's just what I was looking for.  Thank you very much!

Thanks for this, was wondering the same thing.

hey, Kendo folks: have you considered just linking the phrase 'valid number format' in the documentation at http://docs.telerik.com/kendo-ui/api/web/numerictextbox#configuration-format to the location indicated in the post above? That way, we don't have to google for it and eventually find the relevant info in a forum post. Seems like a lot of your documentation could be vastly improved by simply linking to relevant definitions elsewhere in you own documentation. just a thought.

Hi Travis,

Thank you for the feedback. I added a link to the number formatting getting started topic in NumericTextBox API reference just like you suggested.
The changes should be published live in a short period of time. Do not hesitate to contact us or hit us with a pull request in case you notice more gaps in the docs.

Regards,
