Repost: PercentTextBox does not show negative sign

[Suriyanto]

Just to make sure that we didn''t overlook, I am sorry to double post this. But, I still have no luck in displaying the negative symbol in PercentTextBox using my own code or the sample code from Stephen. When I set the negative color to red, I can see the text color toggles between black and red when I press the - button, but no negative sign shows up. How am I going to do this or should I forget about PercentTextBox completely and use regular textbox? Thanks, Suriyanto >Stephen, > >Thanks for the reply.

Hi Suriyanto, Sorry for the delay in responding. In the previous post you had mentioned that you were using version 1.6.1.0 . This version is almost a year old and there have been several changes made to the PercentTextbox in the time inbetween and it would be very difficult to track the changes made over an year ago. The sample that I had posted here was created with version 2.1.0.9 and the negative sign gets displayed in the latest version. I would really encourage you to upgrade to the latest version. Sorry for the inconvenience. Thanks. Best regards, Stephen. >Just to make sure that we didn''t overlook, I am sorry to double post this.

Stephen,

Thanks for replying. I am aware that we are using an old version of Syncfusion Tools. However, we are about to release our product in less than a month and it is too big a risk to switch to any newer version at this time. Could you confirm if this is really a problem in version 1.6? If it is, then we will need to workaround it.

Thanks,
Suriyanto

Hi Suriyanto,

Sure, I will confirm if its a problem in version 1.6. I will install it in our test lab and update you at the earliest. Thank you for your co-operation.

Best regards,

Stephen.
