How to remove an initial value (0) from a "Numeric Entry" field
Hello,
Can anyone know, how to remove an initial value i.e. 0 from a "Numeric Entry" field?
Thanks in advance....
Snorre's javascript solution, whilst appreciated, just replaces the 0 with NaN in the numeric field upon testing.
Hi Chris
Yes, it does so now. It worked till the switch to SL3.
I have a new, more lowtech, workaround:
Place a rectangle, formatted to look like the text entry field, in front of the text entry field. Set it to change state to hidden, when clicked. Voila!
Hi Snorre,
I tried your solution. When I click on the rectangle, it disappears, but the 0 is still displayed..... It's a bit frustrating because I can't find a working solution to the problem with the initial zeros...
I have 50 numeric entry field in my WBT... I need a simple and easy solution..Why can not Articulate fix this old issue?
Hi Stefan,
Have you renamed the numeric entry variable? Our team is looking into an issue where that causes the 0 to display after it's been renamed. It should be blank to start.
If that matches what you're seeing, I'll include this discussion in the report our team is investigating so that I can keep you posted here.
