Precision of numbers

You can restrict the number of decimals to be entered in the NumericTextBox by using the decimals and validateDecimalOnType properties. So, you can’t enter the number whose precision is greater than the mentioned decimals.

  • If validateDecimalOnType is false, number of decimals will not be restricted. Else, number of decimals will be restricted while typing in the NumericTextBox.
