[PatternFly] Entering numeric data in forms

[Matt Carrano]

Hi Everyone,

I have been working over the past several weeks to improve the guidance we
provide to designers in creating PatternFly compliant forms.  In this
regard, I am interested in some input from the community about how you are
currently implementing numeric input fields on forms.  By this I mean
fields that are intended to take only a numeric value.

We have no specific guidance in PatternFly today, but there is a Bootstrap
Touchspin widget in the library for this purpose [1].  I am curious if
folks are using that widget and how it is being used.  In my own designs
I've tended to prefer something more like this input-spinner [2] with the
value right aligned to be adjacent to any units that follow the field.

I'd be interested to hear your thoughts and ideas about this and/or to
share examples for forms you've designed and how you've dealt with this
issue.  Thanks in advance for your help.

Matt
