Hello OpenForis-Team,

i created a survey with Collect and now i test it on a Samsung Tab A with Collect Mobile. However, no decimal separator is displayed on the keyboard.

Any suggestions?

Thanks. Rene

Hi Andras,

thanks for your answer. The number attributes i meant are set to real. But it seems that the Samsung Tab keyboard do not work correctly in my case. So i tried the Google keyboard and now it works.

Hi Rene,

Good to know, I might run into the same problem in the near future.

We experienced that this is a general problem with Samsung devices, same problem occurs on e.g. Samsung Galaxy S8. Its not nice but it might work if you install another keyboard on your device.

Hi Rene,

This usually happens with number attributes set to integer and not real. I guess the Android version is fairly recent, no?

I have a similar question. How is it possible to enter negative numbers in Collect Mobile? In the Samsung Tab A keyboard, the minus sign is missing. Do I also need to install a new keyboard?

Hi

the one reason of this problem could be tablet language, try to change language to "English (United Kingdom)".

settings -> General management -> Language and input -> Language -> English (United Kingdom)

best regards
