Hi Honza,

thanks for your answer. i am using your converter now Smile

though it would be cool if such an option could be integrated in the original editdouble. had some nasty errors in my application when i forgot to check for a null value.

greetings,
matthias

I know from my own experience that it can be sometimes tedious to debug all the additions and multiplying by null, but still I don't think it is worthed the trouble to add the option to regular EditDouble.

As I said above, I usually force the user to input something Smile

Actually in most cases I also supply the default value (e.g 0) to the field in the constructor, so it doesn't bother users at all.
