Hello, I have a numeric entry filed that sometimes is overwritten with data from a control loop when it is in automatic control, when I pass it to manual I can write but it remains with the previous value, I click on it and many decimals appear.
I already change the format. If I do not click on it it looks good, it is when I want to write that they appear
That's a quirky user interface and I don't think you'll find an elegant solution to an inelegant design.
I suggest you change the display to a label and open a popup when someone wants to write a value to the tag / label. e.g., Add a button with a pencil icon, open a popup or make the numeric entry field and submit (checkbox icon?) visible and update the tag / label when the submit button is pressed. Then hide the popups.
