I noticed that this should already work. Unfortunately in the dialogs using the WX_UNIT_BINDER it doesn't because the unit binder flags input with an appended unit as invalid. And to add insult to injury no error is shown, the input is just ignored (also for stuff like "zz"). Input validation is implemented quite unevenly in any case, some inputs do not even allow to input invalid characters (IMHO desirable), others allow anything and complain later. Is there a plan how this should work, is WX_UNIT_BINDER the standard way envisioned? Because in that case it needs some work.
