Numerical input fields are essential for collecting quantitative data, such as quantities, measurements, ratings, or any other number-based information. Formora provides intuitive fields designed for accurate numerical entry. This guide covers the different numerical input fields available, their unique properties, and common applications. For general properties applicable to most fields (like Label, Placeholder, Help Text, Required, Conditional Logic), please refer to the main Field Properties page.

​
Available Numerical Input Fields

The standard field for capturing numerical values. It can be configured for integers or decimals, and with specific ranges.Use Cases:
  • Age
  • Quantity of items
  • Scores or ratings (e.g., 1-5)
  • Measurements (height, weight, length)
  • Currency amounts (though a dedicated currency field might exist in Advanced Inputs)
Specific Properties:
  • Minimum Value: The smallest number allowed.
  • Maximum Value: The largest number allowed.
  • Step Interval: The increment/decrement value when using up/down arrows (e.g., step by 1, 0.5, or 10).
  • Allow Decimals (Precision): Specify if decimal values are permitted and, if so, to how many decimal places.
  • Units/Prefix/Suffix: (If supported directly or via properties) Option to display units like “kg”, ”$”, or ”%”.

Provides an interactive slider for users to select a numerical value within a predefined continuous or stepped range. This is often more engaging for users than typing a number directly for certain types of input.Use Cases:
  • Satisfaction ratings (e.g., 0% to 100%)
  • Setting a price range for a filter
  • Likert-scale type questions (e.g., Strongly Disagree [1] to Strongly Agree [5])
  • Adjusting a percentage value
Specific Properties:
  • Minimum Value: The starting value of the slider range.
  • Maximum Value: The ending value of the slider range.
  • Step Value: The increment the slider moves in (e.g., a step of 1 for integer values, or 0.1 for finer control).
  • Show Value Label: Option to display the currently selected value alongside the slider.
  • Show Min/Max Labels: Option to display the minimum and maximum values at the ends of the slider.
  • Units: Display a unit next to the selected value (e.g., ”%”).

Common Properties for Numerical Inputs

These numerical fields also support standard properties like:
  • Label: The question or title for the numerical input.
  • Help Text/Description: Further clarification for the user.
  • Required: Makes providing a numerical value mandatory.
  • Default Value: Pre-fills the field with a specific number or sets the initial slider position.
  • Read-Only: Displays a pre-set number that cannot be changed.
  • Conditional Logic: Show or hide based on other form inputs.
Consult the Field Properties page for detailed explanations of these common settings. Numerical inputs are crucial for precise data collection. After mastering these, consider exploring Date & Time Inputs for capturing temporal information.
