Hi

Data type / validation not available on the Variable Input object

Possible workaround:

- Create a second variable for further use - do validation in this variable, for example

=if( isnum( vFirstInput ), vFirstInput, 0 )

- You can also create a warning message next to the input box, for example

=if( not isnum( vFirstInput ), 'Not a valid number' )

- As an alternative consider choosing the Slider option rather than showing it as a input box

Hope this helps
