Editors for unsigned values - Editors for WPF Forum

Hello,

I'm currently working on some sort of special editor which allows direct manipulation of values (properties, fields). It is possible that I have data types like ushort or uint. Is there any control that allows editing these unsigned types?

The main problem is just, that I have a higher MaxValue than for signed data types, so I can't use them with the standard edit boxes. Possible would be using a higher value box, like Int64EditBox for UInt32, but that wouldn't work for U64Int either.

Any suggestions? Could this be added in a future version? Or did I miss something?

Thanks in advance!

Hi Manuel,

Sorry but we don't have unsigned versions of the editors. As you brought up, I would in general suggest using the next larger signed version of the desired editor with a minimum value of 0. But as noted, UInt64 is the one you can't truly do that with. If your data type is a UInt64 but you don't expect values to ever surpass Int64.MaxValue, you could use the Int64EditBox there too though.

We will note the suggestion to add specific editors for these types.
