Formats in Angular Numerictextbox component

28 Sep 20235 minutes to read

You can format the value of NumericTextBox using format property.
The value will be displayed in the specified format when the component is in focused out state. The format string supports both the standard numeric format string and custom numeric format string as specified in MSDN.

Standard formats

From the standard Numeric Formats of MSDN, you can use the numeric related format specifiers such as n,p and c in the NumericTextBox component. By using these format specifiers, you can achieve the percentage and currency textbox behavior also.

The below example demonstrates percentage and currency formats.

app.component.ts

import { Component } from '@angular/core';

@Component({
    selector: 'app-root',
    // specifies the template string for the NumericTextBox component
    // sets percentage with 2 numbers of decimal places format
    // sets currency with 2 numbers of decimal places format
    template: `
             <div class='wrap'>
               <ejs-numerictextbox format='p2' value='0.5' min='0' max='1' step='0.01' placeholder='Percentage format' floatLabelType= 'Auto'></ejs-numerictextbox>
             </div>
             <div class='wrap'>
               <ejs-numerictextbox format='c2' value='10' placeholder='Currency format' floatLabelType= 'Auto'></ejs-numerictextbox>
             </div>
            `
})
export class AppComponent {
    constructor() {
    }
}

app.module.ts

import { NgModule } from '@angular/core';
import { BrowserModule } from '@angular/platform-browser';
import { AppComponent } from './app.component';
import { NumericTextBoxModule } from '@syncfusion/ej2-angular-inputs';
import { FormsModule } from '@angular/forms';
 
/**
 * Module
 */
@NgModule({
    imports: [
        BrowserModule,
        NumericTextBoxModule,
        FormsModule
    ],
    declarations: [AppComponent],
    bootstrap: [AppComponent]
})
export class AppModule { }

main.ts

import { platformBrowserDynamic } from '@angular/platform-browser-dynamic';
import { enableProdMode } from '@angular/core';
import { AppModule } from './app.module';

import 'zone.js';
enableProdMode();
platformBrowserDynamic().bootstrapModule(AppModule);

Custom formats

From the custom numeric format string of MSDN, you can provide any custom format by combining one or more custom specifiers.

The below examples demonstrate format the value by using currency format string # and 0.

app.component.ts

import { Component, ViewChild } from '@angular/core';

@Component({
    selector: 'app-root',
    // specifies the template string for the NumericTextBox component
    // sets the format using custom format string `#`
    // sets the format using custom format string `0`
    template: `
            <div class='wrap'>
               <ejs-numerictextbox format='###.##' value='10' placeholder='Custom format string #' floatLabelType= 'Auto'></ejs-numerictextbox>
             </div>
            <div class='wrap'>
               <ejs-numerictextbox format='000.00' value='10' placeholder='Custom format string 0' floatLabelType= 'Auto'></ejs-numerictextbox>
             </div>
            `
})
export class AppComponent {
    constructor() {
    }
}

app.module.ts

import { NgModule } from '@angular/core';
import { BrowserModule } from '@angular/platform-browser';
import { AppComponent } from './app.component';
import { NumericTextBoxModule } from '@syncfusion/ej2-angular-inputs';
import { FormsModule } from '@angular/forms';
 
/**
 * Module
 */
@NgModule({
    imports: [
        BrowserModule,
        NumericTextBoxModule,
        FormsModule
    ],
    declarations: [AppComponent],
    bootstrap: [AppComponent]
})
export class AppModule { }

main.ts

import { platformBrowserDynamic } from '@angular/platform-browser-dynamic';
import { enableProdMode } from '@angular/core';
import { AppModule } from './app.module';

import 'zone.js';
enableProdMode();
platformBrowserDynamic().bootstrapModule(AppModule);
