Confused with MaskInput

Andrew posted over 16 years ago

I set the MaskInput of a column (type double) to {double:12.4:c} and set the MaskDisplayMode to IncludeLiterals.

The value of the cell is set to 1000000.00 but is displayed as 100,000,000.0000

I can set the Format to 'n4' and set MaskInput to null but then I lose formatting when the user is editting.

Why is the value being padded with zeros? How do I achieve the functionality of displaying my number with thousands separators and 4 decimal places and keeping the input mask?

Thanks.

I tried this out and I do not get the same results. The display of the cell in my grid when the cell does not have focus is "1,000,000.0000", which is correct. I don't know why the value of your cell is changing. Must be something else in the code doing that.

Very strange. I get the expected behavior in a sample application that I created. Are there any other properties that would effect the format of the column? If I remove the Mask and use "n4" as the Format I get the expected display but I would like the mask input for edit mode as well.

The value of the cell is still 1000000 so the value is not changing as a side effect of anything. Any idea on another property that could be effecting the format?

No, I can't think of any property that would cause this. Could be something in the code like a DataFilter or an event handler on the grid.
