python sl4a createDialogInput not working correctly with numbers

Question

I made a little script to run in sl4a and I need to get a negative number. Using dialogCreateInput like follow, the keyboard in number mode is show, but the signals not work.

Nor the buttons OK and Cancel are not show!

How to make a negative number be entered via soft keyboard in number mode ?

This doesn't works:

app.dialogCreateInput('Valor', "Informe o valor da operação.", "-", "number" ).result
app.dialogShow()
v1=app.dialogGetResponse().result

This works

v1 = app.dialogGetInput('Valor', "Informe o valor da operação", "-" ).result
valor = v1

Answer 1

I saw a link in the doc dialogCreateInput that points to the possible values of inputType TextView_inputType. Did you try the value "numberSigned" ?
