Display pattern issue..

Mar 9, 2012 3:43 AM

I need to have a display pattern on a Numeric field so that when an user enters 12 as it's value,

the display should be as 12.00%

Tried various options but nothing turned up correctly.

Any advice is greatly appreciated.

Excellent radzmar!

Do you have any article/documentation which explains these patterns?

Many thanks,
Nith

Hi,

detailed information about the picture clauses can be found in the XFA spec.
As the percentage picture clause works different than expected, I use the workaround with the quotation marks in the pattern.
