# Graphical Panel Controls: Numeric Entry

A Numeric Entry control allows you to input numeric data into a graphical panel. Values can be typed in using the keyboard and/or changed via the up and down arrows within the control. Minimum and maximum values can also be specified to restrict entry to a particular value range.
