Hi,

This item is available in latest internal build - LIB 2021.1.216 (16/2/2021)) and it will be also available in the next official release. You can find the LIB as a prerelease nuget or download the assemblies from your account.

Hi Vardan,

I am afraid this issue is not in our immediate plans for the upcoming release as we have tasks with higher priority at this point. Still, we have it in mind and we'll update this item as soon as there is any progress on it.

Hi Travis,

I am sorry for the delayed reply. 

We looked into the issue and indeed, the decimal separator is not handled correctly inside RadNumericInput on UWP ( the erroneous behavior is not reproduced on Android and iOS). I am afraid I could not offer a workaround as this concerns the internal logic of the control.

I understand this issue makes it impossible to enter decimal values in the NumericInput, so I've raised this item's priority and hopefully we'll manage to resolve it soon.

I am sorry for any inconvenience caused.

Hello Travis,

Thank you for the demo, I can confirm the behavior where all the NumericInput's entered characters are cleared if the user enters a decimal point. The only time it doesn't get reset if there are only multiple decimal points entered.

I have escalated this to the development team and marked the issue Approved. I am unable to find any workaround at the moment. There might be something that can be done with  the NumericInputEntry itself (inside the ControlTemplate see here), but I will need to defer to the team to follow up with you on that.

Thank you for your patience and understanding.

Unrelated Fix

Regarding the output error, as I suspected that can be resolved with a converter. Since the Price property is of type decimal, the converter should be this:

public class DecimalToDoubleConverter : IValueConverter
{
    public object Convert(object value, Type targetType, object parameter, CultureInfo culture)
    {
        return System.Convert.ToDouble((decimal)value);
    }

    public object ConvertBack(object value, Type targetType, object parameter, CultureInfo culture)
    {
        return System.Convert.ToDecimal((double?)value);
    }
}

and the XAML would now be:

<ContentPage ...>
 <ContentPage.Resources>
 <views:DecimalToDoubleConverter x:Key="DecToDblConverter" />
 </ContentPage.Resources>

 <StackLayout>
 <telerikInput:RadNumericInput x:Name="numericInput"
                                      Value="{Binding Price, Mode=TwoWay, Converter={StaticResource DecToDblConverter}}"
                                      StringFormat="{}{0:C2}" />
 </StackLayout>
</ContentPage>

Hello Travis,

I did not see an attached (or download link for) a reproducible project to follow those steps. Can you please share the data model that contains the Price property? According to the error, it is trying to convert a double? (Value is a nullable double) to an int.

If Price is indeed an int (or any type other than double?), the problem can be averted by using a value converter to bridge the gap between the model's property type and the required type.

For example:

// See https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/xamarin/xamarin-forms/app-fundamentals/data-binding/converters for more information on writing a converter

public class MyIntToDoubleConverter : IValueConverter
{
    public object Convert(object value, Type targetType, object parameter, CultureInfo culture)
    {
        return Convert.ToDouble((int)value); 
    }

    public object ConvertBack(object value, Type targetType, object parameter, CultureInfo culture)
    {
        return Convert.ToInt((double?)value);
    }
}

It would be used like this

<ContentPage.Resources>
    <yourNamespace:MyIntToDoubleConverter x:Key="IntToDoubleConverter" />
</ContentPage.Resources>

<tkInput:RadNumericInput Grid.Row="4" Grid.Column="1" Value="{Binding Price, Mode=TwoWay, Converter={StaticResource IntToDoubleConverter}" StringFormat="{}{0:C2}" />

Further Investigation

If it is indeed a double, then please reply with the data model and I will build a test app around it. It would also be useful to know the following platform specifics:

• What is the Min SDK and Target SDK versions for UWP?
• What Windows 10 version is the app running on?
• What version of Xamarin.Forms is the project using?

Version Number

Regarding the version selection, it is the first three numbers that distinguish the release ([year].[releasenumber].[monthday]). You can use the following selection in the future:
