Formatted Number

The Formatted Number Field allows users to input numerical values with a custom-defined delimiter for thousands, making large numbers easier to read and interpret.

Key Features

• Custom Delimiter: Users can configure the delimiter that separates thousands. This could be a comma (,), unserscore (_) or dot (.) depending on your needs.

• Automatic Formatting: As soon as a number is entered, it is automatically formatted according to the configured delimiter.
