Decimal field
The Decimal field is a form field to collect numerical data that includes decimal points, offering a more precise way to capture fractional values.
In the Properties of the field,
  1. You can provide placeholder text, offering a brief hint or example to guide respondents on the expected input.
  2. Thousand Separator:  Automatically include a symbol (such as a comma or period) to separate groups of thousands when users input large numbers.
  3. Rounded to: You can set the number of decimal places allowed to ensure consistency and precision in the collected data.
  4. Range: You can constrain responses to a defined numerical range by setting minimum and maximum values. Respondents can only input values that fall within the specified minimum and maximum limits. You can define up to 5 separate ranges for Values range format.
    For example, in the context of an Age field, you can set the minimum age to 18 and the maximum age to 65.
    Restrict input on reaching the range: When enabled, respondents cannot enter a value beyond the configured range. An error message is displayed as soon as the limit is reached.
  5. You can provide a Unit to a Decimal field to enhance clarity and context for respondents.
Validation
  1. Mandatory: Ensure that respondents cannot submit the form without entering the data in this field.
  2. No Duplicates: Prevent the submission of identical entries.
  3. Allow Negative Value: Allow respondents to input numeric values that fall below zero.
  4. Include decimal input confirmation: Selecting this option prompts the respondents to re-enter the decimal values for confirmation, ensuring that both inputs match, thus preventing typos.
