Custom number properties

The number definition property template can be used to add a custom property of number type. When defining a number property, the following fields can be used:

Definition properties
Field Description
type

Used for all custom property type definitions. Can be either string, integer, number, array or boolean.

This field is mandatory and should always be "number" for a number property type definition.

component Used for defining how the property is visualized in the property panel. Used to override the default component that comes with the type setting.
label Used for defining the label that is displayed in the property panel.
ref Name or ID used to reference a property.
defaultValue Used for defining the default value of your custom property.
min Used for defining the minimum value of the property.
max Used for defining the maximum value of the property.

Examples

Defining a custom property of number type can look like below.

Example: Add custom number property to Appearance accordion

Information noteCustomization of properties always start with items:.
	return {
		type: "items",
		component: "accordion",
		items: {
			settings: {
				uses: "settings",
				items: {
					MyNumProp: {
						type: "number",
						label: "Maximum",
						ref: "myproperties.max",
						defaultValue: "10.5"
					}
				}
			}
This is what it looks like in the property panel

		type: "items",
		component: "accordion",
		items: {
			MyAccordion: {
				type: "number",
				label: "Maximum value",
				ref: "myproperties.max",
				defaultValue: "10",
