Hi,
I'm developing an application using WebNumericEditors. I know how to prevent the thousands seperator from showing; applying a custom NumberFormatInfo to the editor overwriting the default one. But I really don't want to do this for each control, with the BIG possibility of overlooking one. Is there a way of applying a global numberformat to all WebNumericEditors or maybe specifying a resource or theme to fix this? I tried the theme solution, but since this isn't a real property of the editor that won't work unfortunately (as far as I know). I also found a solution on this form applying a custom numberformat object to the current running thread (using the Application_Start app.config function), but that doesn't work for some reason.
I'm using 8.2 build 2022 of the ASP.NET suite.
I am not sure why currentthread does not work for you. You may put codes in any page event before prerender. The best is within OnLoad.
System.Globalization.CultureInfo ci = System.Globalization.CultureInfo.CreateSpecificCulture("en-US");// set your properties for ciSystem.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture = ci;
You may look at sample applications related to culture. For example, CultureFormats.aspx.cs and CustomFormats.aspx.cs.
Hi Viktor,
I think (but I haven't verified this yet) that setting the culture in web.config overrides the culture you specify in, for instance, the application_load event in global.asax. When you override the culture in each seperate page again it'll probably work, but that's not what I want.
So I'll check which event in global.asax is suitable for overriding for this purpose. In the meanwhile, you guys could also provide users with a nicer way to do this, a web.config configuration key or something like that.
