Float Label Numeric Entry Control¶

The Float Label Numeric Entry Control is very similar to the Numeric Entry Control in that it let's the developer implement text boxes for formatted numbers based on localization and other scenarios. But it has the added benefit of having a constantly visible label that 'floats' above the control during entry.
