The ezfloat datatype (Float) #

Class eZFloatType in kernel/classes/datatypes/ezfloat/ezfloattype.php; identifier ezfloat, listed in settings/content.ini [DataTypeSettings] AvailableDataTypes[].

What it stores #

The columns of the attribute tables its class reads or writes: data_float, data_float1, data_float2, data_float3, data_float4 (data_text, data_int, data_float and sort_key_* are the object attribute's; data_text1 ... data_int4 the class attribute's settings). Found by reading the class: a heuristic.

In templates #

my_attribute stands for the identifier of an attribute of this type in your class:

{def $attribute = $node.data_map.my_attribute}
{if $attribute.has_content}
    {attribute_view_gui attribute=$attribute}
{/if}
{* the value as the datatype returns it (objectAttributeContent()) *}
{$attribute.content|attribute( show, 1 )}

The shipped template that shows it (attribute_view_gui), design/standard/templates/content/datatype/view/ezfloat.tpl:

{* DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE! Use an override template instead. *}
{$attribute.data_float|l10n( number )}

The shipped template that edits it (attribute_edit_gui), design/standard/templates/content/datatype/edit/ezfloat.tpl:

{* DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE! Use an override template instead. *}
{default attribute_base=ContentObjectAttribute}
<input id="ezcoa-{if ne( $attribute_base, 'ContentObjectAttribute' )}{$attribute_base}-{/if}{$attribute.contentclassattribute_id}_{$attribute.contentclass_attribute_identifier}" class="box ezcc-{$attribute.object.content_class.identifier} ezcca-{$attribute.object.content_class.identifier}_{$attribute.contentclass_attribute_identifier}" type="text" name="{$attribute_base}_data_float_{$attribute.id}" size="12" value="{if $attribute.has_http_value}{$attribute.value|wash}{else}{$attribute.content|l10n(number)}{/if}" />
{/default}

Override them for one class attribute in an override.ini.append.php with Source=content/datatype/view/ezfloat.tpl and a match on attribute_identifier (see A template override).
