Posted on by Iantaylor2050 531

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
