Edit Patterns for Decimal Fields

The fractional part of a number moved to an edit field can display a different behavior depending on the client type.

With a GUI or ASP.NET client, when a decimal number is moved to a field with an edit pattern that does not include decimals or has fewer decimals, the decimal digits that are not displayed are truncated.

For example, when 156.123 is moved to a field with an edit pattern of 999.99 the value displayed on the screen is 156.12. If that number is moved back to a field with an edit pattern of 999.999, the value displayed is 156.120; the rightmost digit is truncated. A Web Generation client would display the value as 156.123. The behavior of the GUI and ASP.NET clients will be corrected in a future release.
