Matthew Giampapa Posted May 1, 2002 Share Posted May 1, 2002 This is working correctly in 9.5.1. Create a Record Format, Add a field of type number. Set the number format to decimal and specify the number of decimal places. Click ok and then enter a default value. Any number will be reported with the specified number of decimal places when it is attached to an object. If you put in 0 as the default and three decimal places, the default value will be 0.000. If you enter 46.3465 as the default, then it will put in 46.347 as the default. Matthew GiampapaNNA Technical Support Quote Link to comment
TiTaNiuM sAMuRai Posted May 2, 2002 Author Share Posted May 2, 2002 I can't get the first field -- a number type -- of a new record to hold no default value. It always sets itself to 0... despite the fact that it should read 0.000 if anything, since I told it to use 3 dec. places. BBD? Behavior by design? Quote Link to comment
TiTaNiuM sAMuRai Posted May 2, 2002 Author Share Posted May 2, 2002 A modified record copied / converted from v8 didn't work, but a fresh record correctly did decimals as you said. Nonetheless, what if I want NO default value for a number type? Quote Link to comment
TiTaNiuM sAMuRai Posted May 2, 2002 Author Share Posted May 2, 2002 VW 951 OSX.1.4 I know that someone else had the problem of the Object info focus not moving to the next field for a record when 'Enter' is pressed. I've just done something to one of my symbols that makes the 'move to next field' behavior work for the record. There's another, similar, symbol, that uses the SAME record, but does not proceed.
