  • needs_docs changed.

FloatField? has no additional attributes over a base field. The changes described in the development version of the docs that it's changed from the past is because those attributes are now available on DecimalField? and have been removed from FloatField?. The documentation for FloatField? is now equivalent to the IntegerField?, and this is appropriate, as there are no extra attributes to describe.

Recommending this for closing.

You still need to indicate the presence of it in some way. forms.FloatField? is necessary for those of us using models.FloatField?, and no where is that indicated in the newforms documentation.

  • has_patch set to 1.
  • summary changed from FloatField is not described in model reference to FloatField is not described in newforms documentation.

So your problem is not that "FloatField? is not described in the model reference", because it is, here: http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/model-api/#floatfield

Your problem is that FloatField? is not described in the newforms documentation, here: http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/newforms/

I have updated the title of this ticket to reflect that, and I have also attached a documentation patch for newforms for FloatField?. If I have misunderstood you, please clarify.
