Currency Box and Number Box/Spinner

Overview

This article demonstrates how to configure the Currency Box, Number Box, and Number Spinner controls in a Form. 

These controls allow Designers to display and/or prompt integer inputs from the end user while supporting different formatting and customization options. Often used in data entry and organization processes, familiarity with these controls are foundational to a Designer's knowledge of the platform. 

While these controls accept the Double data type as an input, both Currency and Number Boxes can be configured to output their data as either Double, Int, or Decimal data types. However, the Number Spinner control only outputs the Double data type. 

Configuration
