IDEA:

User Shortcut form style for Calculated fields.

I just stumbled across that this morning and think it is exactly what most folks would want. This is a much better visual AND is cross browser compatible.

Before i apply your suggestion, is there any change in the status on this, or any idea if IE9 will support this? I too am having trouble reading calculated fields (I must be getting old :shock: ).

I was able to get some help on this from the Aware team, thought I would add it here to share., #2 was my fix. we usually avoid putting these symbols as part of the number format (for the reasons that you described) and use various workarounds, for example: 1) If the value is displayed on the form, ...

Minor Cosmetic Issue: Query -> Chart -> Define Data fo

one of the colums reads:

one other quick observation: if a rule is used to copy in the data then the prefix/suffix are not required, but are displayed correctly. I would think that a user and rule should be able ot have the same behavoirs. I seem to recall a similar issue in another project using EXTJS, so might be a limita...

I'd have to think that through, I think it would really make things way too complex were talking about dozens of fields and editing could get pretty ugly. I did some testing and found that for ANY prefiix or suffix in a number field the charater must be typed exactly by the user. This seems like boa...

I was thinking I could write my on SQL, but I was planning to use this as the result fo a form based query (search) so the SQL is non-modifiable. The only work around I can think of is to create two forms, two fields, and some rules for each reference attribute but give them the same label. This wou...

I am currently using the format string ‘#.00%’ as a typical example of my number fields., and have tried to esc...
