Trying to get a blank initial value for Number column

[Tyrfang]

Hello everyone, 

I'm trying to have a number input with a blank initial value. Unfortunately, all my attempts resulted in a "0" value.

I tried setting 'Number("")' or 'Decimal("")' as initial value formula for the column, but no luck so far.
Any tips would be a great help, thanks in advance 🙂

You don't need to use any initial value with the number column. If you place your cursor into that column, you will find out that it goes to left of the zero, which means the zero is just a visual number. It should not save any zero to your data source.

Thanks for the clarification AleksiAlkio, I didn't realize this was a placeholder.
