New-UDTextBox -Mask for MAC Address?

Product: PowerShell Universal
Version: 1.5.13
Dashboard: 3.3.2

We’re trying to make a single text box input using New-UDTextbox -Mask parameter.
cmdlet:

New-UDTextbox -Id ‘MACAddress’ -Placeholder “00:00:00:00:00:00” -Mask @(‘/[0-9a-fA-F]/’, ‘/[0-9a-fA-F]/’, “:”, ‘/[0-9a-fA-F]/’, ‘/[0-9a-fA-F]/’, “:”, ‘/[0-9a-fA-F]/’, ‘/[0-9a-fA-F]/’, “:”, ‘/[0-9a-fA-F]/’, ‘/[0-9a-fA-F]/’, “:”, ‘/[0-9a-fA-F]/’, ‘/[0-9a-fA-F]/’, “:”, ‘/[0-9a-fA-F]/’, ‘/[0-9a-fA-F]/’)

Pasting a MAC address into the textbox works perfect, removes invalid characters like hyphens and puts everything in the right spot.
Typing the characters in on the other hand doesn’t work so well. You type a single character and then it loses focus, you have to click in the box again and type another character, one character at a time.

I copied the example found at https://docs.ironmansoftware.com/dashboard/components/inputs/textbox#mask and get the same issue with that.

I recently experienced the same issue and discussed it here. We were never able to come to a resolution, perhaps a feature request needs to be put in.

Mask for textbox

Thanks for the response. I tried the below: New-UDTextbox -Label "Drive 3 Size" -Id "Drive3Size" -Mask @('^([0-9]{1,4})$') but this just set the element value to ‘^([0-9]{1,4})$’. In reading the docs, it says you have to use JavaScript syntax and start/end each regex with ‘/\d/’, so I tried: ... -Mask @('//^([0-9]{1,4})$//') but this did not work either. Thus far, the closest I have come is this: ...-Mask @('/\d/', '/\d/', '/\d/', '/\d/') but this creates the column effect. Perhaps @adam w…

I opened an issue for this on our end.

EDIT: Oh, man…that’s not annoying at all…

Much appreciated Adam.
