Previous to release 3.0.10, the MaxValue and MinValue properties for the fpCurrency and fpDoubleSingle controls required you to type in decimal values using a period (".") as the decimal symbol, no matter the setting of the DecimalPoint property.

Starting with release 3.0.10, the MaxValue and MinValue properties require you to type in the decimal values using the decimal symbol specified by the DecimalPoint property. Therefore, if your project has settings for the MaxValue and MinValue properties and your project uses a value other than the period (".") for the DecimalPoint property, you must update the settings of the MaxValue and MinValue properties to use the decimal symbol specified by the DecimalPoint property. (GRB7443)

The control is now properly handling text selection when the OnFocusSelect property is set to True and the user moves the focus to the control by using the mouse. (CHB5682)

fpDoubleSingle control

Previous to release 3.0.10, the MaxValue and MinValue properties for the fpCurrency and fpDoubleSingle controls required you to type in decimal values using a period (".") as the decimal symbol, no matter the setting of the DecimalPoint property.

Starting with release 3.0.10, the MaxValue and MinValue properties require you to type in the decimal values using the decimal symbol specified by the DecimalPoint property. Therefore, if your project has settings for the MaxValue and MinValue properties and your project uses a value other than the period (".") for the DecimalPoint property, you must update the settings of the MaxValue and MinValue properties to use the decimal symbol specified by the DecimalPoint property. (GRB7443)

Typing the decimal symbol now correctly enters the decimal symbol in the fpCurrency and fpDoubleSingle controls, and the control correctly handles values entered in a control displaying a decimal symbol. (JUW115, GRB7442)

The control is now properly handling text selection when the OnFocusSelect property is set to True and the user moves the focus to the control by using the mouse. (CHB5682)

fpLongInteger control

The control is now properly handling text selection when the OnFocusSelect property is set to True and the user moves the focus to the control by using the mouse. (CHB5682)
