Searched for this one but could only find posts from 6 -7 months ago (sorry if it is already a known issue in 2.5 beta)

Today I created an integer field and set the properties as follows
- required -> yes
- unique -> no
- default value -> 365
- prefills form -> yes

validator -> numeric (set by default when field created)

in the validation test box any integer such as 2011, 365, 35465... fails validation

also fails in downloaded component

After some trouble shooting - rule names miss matched perhaps?

an integer value lets say 2...

Fails
numeric
positive integer

passes
decimal
positive decimal
percentage

A decimal value lets say 2.0 or 2.00

passes
percentage rule only

fails
All other predefined number validation rules

Hope the above information helps to find the resolution

Hi,
I had the same experience, the numeric regex has an unexpected behaviour (in my opinion).
I thought it should allow any integer positive or negative, but I was wrong. it works only with a numeric range between -9 and 9.
I think this should be changed, also because this validation is used on the ordering field, so when the list becomes higher then 1 digit (for example: 10), the validation give a false error in the form.

I fixed it, using this regex pattern: ^-{0,1}\d+$
