Numeric Text Field Number Type

Ignition
1

Noticed today that the user manual as well as the property binding system lists the scripting name for the number type of a Numeric Text Field as ‘Mode’. I have tried to use it in scripting and get an error. I am referencing this in scripting using the standard property insertion methods:

event.source.parent.getComponent('numericDisplay').Mode

I changed the line to:

event.source.parent.getComponent('numericDisplay').mode

and the script runs perfectly. I realize I am running 7.1.7 and am not sure if it has been fixed in the recent releases, but just figured you guys would want to know…
