NumericTextBox should display decimal portion even when zero.
The Kendo UI NumericTextBox hides the decimal portion of its value when focus is in the control and when the decimal part is zero. For example a value of 1,345.00 will appear as 1345 when the focus is put in the control. If the decimal part is non-zero then the value is shown. From a usability viewpoint the disappearing zeros is inconsistent and can be misleading/confusing to a user who may not realize that they can enter a decimal part.

So I think it would be valuable for the control to always show the decimal part of the value.

It is very unusual to show amounts as 1,345. Costs and Amounts are almost always shown as 1,345.00. I am curious how other people are not running into this issue. Is anyone else using NumericTextBox for accepting any amounts? If so, are your users ok with seeing 1,345 when the field gets focus?

Hi Michael, thanks for you comment. I don't quite understand how you are using kendo.toString(). I am just using the the NumericTexBox out-of-the-box like this: http://jsfiddle.net/jjp1921/5aomLhe4/13/

If you have it set to a numeric type are you using kendo.toString(value, "format")? This is what we do and do not have any issues.
