Limiting Text input to certain value

Posted on by ratas101

I made a form where I want to restrict the Text input with numbers below than 10. If the user puts any number greater than 10, he/she will get an error notification.

How can I achieve this function?

Hi @ramtas101 ,

Try OnChange

If( Value(Self.Text)> 10, Notify("Numbers 10 and below", Error); Reset(Self) )

I am looking for the option where the user wont be able to enter any number greater than 10. If user enter any number above 10, he/she will get a notification error and the Textinput will reset to blank

I know you probably thought of this but why not make it a dropdown list with items property set to
Sequence(10)
Just a thought... saves them having to type anything ...

Thanks for the idea.As I am making a questionnaire with alot of 'rate this out of 10' type of questions, making all those a choice column would make it cumbersome

I agree context is important. I'm actually a big fan of slider bars for rating things... I think the UI is rather cool and very clear to the end user. But of course, each to their own. If you trying to keep it within the standard Form though that would also require manipulation which it sounds like you don't want to do. Good luck.

@ramtas101 ,

That is exactly what the code I supplied will do if applied to the OnChange of the Text box - what is not working ?

I used this formula: If(Value(Datacard Value XX.Text)<0 || Value(DataCardValueXX.Text)>10,Notify("Number must be between 1-10",NotificationType.Error);Reset(DataCardValueXX)) on the OnChange property of the Textinput

I have used this formula and it solved my issue. Thank you so much for your help!

@ramtas101 ,

That is exactly what I posted (you can use Self instead of the Control name and you do did not specify a minus outcome being possible) . . . .
