numericFormat

The numericFormat property indicates how to format the value of the field as numeric output. Specify numericFormat only if the ConsoleField accepts a number. For more information on the symbols used for this format, see Numeric formatting symbols.

The property is a STRING type. You cannot update the property at run time.

There is no default value for this property. If you do not specify a format, EGL will format the number according to the type of the associated variable and the current locale. For an explanation of that formatting process, see formatNumber().
