Limit characters in Input Field

[David08]

Hello,

Is it possible to limit the number of characters (String) in an Input Field? Specifically at the time of screen input.

Thanks

This is only possible with a custom widget currently.

The Template-for-cartesian-handling-systems-v2-6-3 includes a customer widget cx-input using a customer keypad where you can limit the input length of strings. See documentation of template for basic information of usage. Max. value of item is used as max. input length.

• package-cxTools (helpful utilies like virtual keypad with limmited input length cxt.keypad() JS code contains description and examples)
• cxVisuals (widget cx-input which uses cxt.keypad() )

Therefor you either can use cx-input or create a customer widget, which open the virtual keypad by calling cxt.keypad().
