How to have a TextItem with mask transfer constant mask value?

[Blama]

Hi Isomorphic,

please see this modified testcase (v12.0p_2019-01-25).

If you enter some value in SKU, e.g. "1234567890" and hit the "Save"-button, this very string is sent to the server, not "(123) 456-7890". Is there some way to have these fixed characters like "(", " ", ")" and "," transferred as well?

Reason behind this: We are querying the user for some zip code. Now different countries have different zip code formats, e.g. all zip codes in Luxembourg start with "L-" and all zip codes in Sweden look like "xxx xx".
I want the user to enter the zip code in the country's format (already ensured by a validator), but also want to help him, not just with hint.
For Luxembourg, I could pre-fill the item with "L-", but this does not work for Sweden or the sample here, where the constants are in the middle of the text
So my question is: Is there some way to have the TextItem send the masked value instead of just the entered characters?

isc.DynamicForm.create({ 
    ID: "dynamicForm",
    dataSource: "supplyItem",
    // pre-fill some values
    values: {
        unitCost: 1.34,
        itemName: "My item",
        category: "My item's category"
    },
    fields: [
        {name: "itemID"},
        {name: "itemName"},
        {name: "SKU", mask: "(###) ###-####", hint: "(###) ###-####", showHintInField: true},
        {name: "category"},
        {name: "units"},
        {name: "unitCost"},
        {name: "inStock"},
        {name: "nextShipment"}
    ]
});

isc.IButton.create({
    ID: "saveButton",
    title: "Save",
    click: "dynamicForm.saveData()"
});


isc.IButton.create({
    ID: "clearErrorsButton",
    title: "Clear Errors",
    click: "dynamicForm.clearErrors(true)"
});

isc.IButton.create({
    ID: "disableValidationButton",
    autoFit: true,
    title: "Disable Validation",
    click: function () {
        dynamicForm.disableValidation = !dynamicForm.disableValidation;
        this.setTitle((dynamicForm.disableValidation ? "Enable" : "Disable")+" Validation");
    }
});

isc.HStack.create({
    ID: "buttons",
    height: 24,
    membersMargin: 10,
    members: [saveButton, clearErrorsButton, disableValidationButton]    
});

isc.VLayout.create({
    membersMargin: 10,
    members: [dynamicForm, buttons]
});

Thank you & Best regards

Set maskSaveLiterals:true on the field.

Hi Isomorphic,

thanks, that was an easy one and I don't know how it missed it.
