I am using textinput in powerapp form. I noticed it allows negative number despite choosing as number format in the type.

May i know how to avoid negative numbers?

It also allows % symbol if i key in with some number. For eg: if i enter10% it allows which should not be the case. May i know how to avoid?

Hi,

In OnChange Property place code:

If(

!IsNumeric(Self.Value) || Value(Self.Value) < 0 || Find("%", Self.Value) > 0,

Notify("Please enter a valid positive number without symbols.", NotificationType.Error)

)

That Should sort it out, Now if You use new Modern control TextInput You can also add this to your ValidationState propery

If(

!IsNumeric(Self.Value) || Value(Self.Value) < 0 || Find(

"%",

Self.Value

) > 0,

"Error",

"None"

)

Also change TriggerOutput property to

'TextInputCanvas.TriggerOutput'.Delayed
