GridNumericColumn - cursor position in edit mode (F2)

[Piotr]

I'm using SfDataGrid control and a few GridNumericColumn controls. There is some inconsistency when user is using F2 key to edit values in these numeric columns. Let's say that we have 3 columns with these values:

1,00 2,20 3,33

When user will press F2 key, the cursor will be placed in different places depending on the value:

I think that the cursor should be placed in the same place regardless of the value.

Hi.

Sorry for late reply. I've been very busy.

This control has very strange behavior - please see attached video. The cursor isn't placed in the same position every time and in most cases this position is not optimal (cursor is placed after first decimal digit, before last digit). I will upload my simple project which was used to make this video. Please note that my OS is Windows 11 with Polish regional and language settings.

Regards,
Chris
