- Resets the width of the integer portion of the control. The

-its current setting. On success, the function returns True.

- This function is a convenience function for setting the min and max

-if setting the minimum bound is successful, and returns True
-only if both operations succeed. Note: leaving out an argument
-will remove the corresponding bound.

- Returns True if no value is specified and the current value

-be called with a value to see if that value would fall within the current
-bounds of the given control.
-
-
- - SetLimited(bool)
-
- If called with a value of True, this function will cause the control
-to limit the value to fall within the bounds currently specified.
-If the control's value currently exceeds the bounds, it will then

-If called with a value of False, this function will disable value
-limiting, but coloring of out-of-bounds values will still take

-
- IsLimited()
-
- Returns True if the control is currently limiting the
-value to fall within the current bounds.
-
-
- - SetAllowNone(bool)
-
- If called with a value of True, this function will cause the control
-to allow the value to be empty, representing a value of None.
-If called with a value of False, this function will prevent the value
-from being None. If the value of the control is currently None,
-ie. the control is empty, then the value will be changed to that
-of the lower bound of the control, or 0 if no lower bound is set.
-
- GetAllowNone()
-
- IsNoneAllowed()
-
- Returns True if the control currently allows its
-value to be None.
-
-
- - SetAllowNegative(bool)
-
- If called with a value of True, this function will cause the
-control to allow the value to be negative (and reserve space for
-displaying the sign. If called with a value of False, and the
-value of the control is currently negative, the value of the
-control will be converted to the absolute value, and then
-limited appropriately based on the existing bounds of the control
-(if any).

- GetAllowNegative()
-
- IsNegativeAllowed()
-
- Returns True if the control currently permits values
-to be negative.
-
-
- - SetGroupDigits(bool)
-
- If called with a value of True, this will make the control
-automatically add and manage grouping characters to the presented
-value in integer portion of the control.
-
- GetGroupDigits()
-
- IsGroupingAllowed()
-
- Returns True if the control is currently set to group digits.
-
-
- - SetGroupChar()
-
- Sets the grouping character for the integer portion of the
-control. (The default grouping character this is ','.
-
- GetGroupChar()
-
- Returns the current grouping character for the control.
-
-
- - SetSelectOnEntry()
-
- If called with a value of True, this will make the control
-automatically select the contents of each field as it is entered
-within the control. (The default is True.)
-
- GetSelectOnEntry()
-
- Returns True if the control currently auto selects
-the field values on entry.
-
-
- - SetAutoSize(bool)
-
- Resets the autoSize attribute of the control.
-
- GetAutoSize()
-
- Returns the current state of the autoSize attribute for the control.
