Providing an option to set inputmode in components that use numeric input values

*** Feature Request created by Telerik by Progress staff ***

This feature request will allow developers to set inputmode to components like NumericTextBox, DatePicker, and etc. Making mobile users experience better as it will require the Virtual Numeric keyboard to be opened instead of the default that includes letters.

As at this current time the developers are required to select the element using querySelector and setAttribute as demonstrated in the following demo with DatePicker:

This functionality is requested in the following threads:

Hi,

I am happy to announce that this enhancement is now available for the applicable components in the Inputs and DateInputs packages. The desired inputmode can be applied through the inputAttributes property of the relevant Kendo UI for Angular component:
