About edit control (number and up/down button)

[AlbatorV]

Two questions about edit controls with number type and up/down properties:

• Max length: With number type and up/down properties, the max length is not respected. Normal?
• Padding: Is there a way to keep zero padding when using the up/down buttons?

Correct, the max length is set automatically based on the specified maximum value.

Not currently, but we can add it.

Ok, so maybe this property should be disabled when Up/down is enabled.

Thanks. I noticed this in the rename dialog when using numbering and I need this for me script.

Continuing the discussion from Directory Opus 13.23.1 (Beta):

@Jon

Numeric edit controls in script dialogs have two new properties:

• Preserve padding: makes them preserve any zero-padding in front of their value.
• Auto-size: controls will be auto-sized to fit their maximum value (note: the up/down control must also be enabled).

Thanks
