Show only numeric keyboard for EditField

Question

I have EditField. I want to show virtual keyboard only with number, without letters. Is it possible?

Answer 1

editText.setInputType(InputType.TYPE_CLASS_NUMBER);

Answer 2

You can also use

object.setFilter(TextFilter.get(TextFilter.NUMERIC));

Answer 3

amount->setInputMode(bb::cascades::TextFieldInputMode::NumbersAndPunctuation);

You can find all the types here: https://developer.blackberry.com/cascades/reference/bb__cascades__textfieldinputmode.html

Answer 4

You can either construct the EditField and pass EditField.FILTER_NUMERIC as the style: http://www.blackberry.com/developers/docs/7.0.0api/net/rim/device/api/ui/component/BasicEditField.html#FILTER_NUMERIC

OR

You can call EditField.setFilter() http://www.blackberry.com/developers/docs/7.0.0api/net/rim/device/api/ui/component/BasicEditField.html#setFilter(net.rim.device.api.ui.text.TextFilter) and pass in aTextFilter. Use the static TextFilter.get() function and pass in one of the filter constants from the TextFilter class, eg http://www.blackberry.com/developers/docs/7.0.0api/net/rim/device/api/ui/text/TextFilter.html#NUMERIC

Numeric filters accept non-negative integers only (0 - 999999999 and beyond), Integer filter accepts all integers negative, zero and positive, and REAL_NUMERIC accepts any decimal number (negative, zero, positive, with an optional decimal point).
