There are different options for the different dataprovider types that are assigned to this field.
For Integer fields, there is a display and an edit format, using http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/text/DecimalFormat.html and the max (string) length can be set.
For Text/String fields, there are options to force uppercase,lowercase or only numbers. Or a mask can be set that restrict the input the pattern chars can be found here: http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/javax/swing/text/MaskFormatter.html
A mask can have a placehoder (what is shown when there is no data) and if the data must be stored raw (without literals of the mask). A max text length can also be set to force
the max text length input, this doesn't work on mask because that max length is controlled with the mask.
For Date fields a display and edit format can be set by using a pattern from here: http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/text/SimpleDateFormat.html, you can also say this must behave like a mask (the edit format)
A mask only works with when the edit format is exactly that mask (1 char is 1 number/char), because for example MM then only 2 numbers are allowed MMM that displays the month as a string is not supported as a mask.
Some examples are "dd\-MM\-yyyy", "MM\-dd\-yyyy", etc.
The format property is also used to set the UI Converter, this means that you can convert the value object to something else before it gets set into the field, this can also result in a type change of the data. 
So a string in scripting/db is converted to a integer in the ui, then you have to set an integer format.
It only returns it's correct value if it was explicitly set, otherwise null.{sub-section}{td}{tr}{builder-show:permission=edit}{tr:id=snc}{td}*Since*\\{sub-section:format_snc|trigger=button|text=}{sub-section}{sub-section:format_snc|trigger=none|class=sIndent} Replace with version info{sub-section}{td}{tr}{builder-show}{builder-show:permission=edit}{tr:id=prs}{td}*Parameters*\\{sub-section:format_prs|trigger=button|text=}{sub-section}{sub-section:format_prs|trigger=none|class=sIndent}{sub-section}{td}{tr}{builder-show}{tr:id=ret}{td}*Returns*\\{sub-section:format_ret|trigger=button|text=}{sub-section}{sub-section:format_ret|trigger=none|class=sIndent}[String]{sub-section}{td}{tr}{builder-show:permission=edit}{tr:id=see}{td}*Also see*\\{sub-section:format_see|trigger=button|text=}{sub-section}{div:class=sIndent}{sub-section:format_see|trigger=none}{sub-section}{div}{td}{tr}{builder-show}{builder-show:permission=edit}{tr:id=link}{td}*External links*\\{sub-section:format_link|trigger=button|text=}with description{sub-section}{td}{tr}{builder-show}{builder-show:permission=edit}{tr:id=snc}{td}*Since*\\{sub-section:format_snc|trigger=button|text=}{sub-section}{sub-section:format_snc|trigger=none|class=sIndent} Replace with version info{sub-section}{td}{tr}{builder-show}{builder-show:permission=edit}{tr:id=prs}{td}*Parameters*\\{sub-section:format_prs|trigger=button|text=}{sub-section}{sub-section:format_prs|trigger=none|class=sIndent}{sub-section}{td}{tr}{builder-show}{tr:id=ret}{td}*Returns*\\{sub-section:format_ret|trigger=button|text=}{sub-section}{sub-section:format_ret|trigger=none|class=sIndent}[String]{sub-section}{td}{tr}{builder-show:permission=edit}{tr:id=see}{td}*Also see*\\{sub-section:format_see|trigger=button|text=}{sub-section}{div:class=sIndent}{sub-section:format_linksee|trigger=none}{sub-section}{div}{td}{tr}{builder-show}{builder-show:permission=edit}{tr:id=samlink}{td}*SampleExternal links*\\{sub-section:format_samlink|trigger=button|text=}{sub-section}{div:class=sIndent}{sub-section:format_sam|trigger=none}{code:language=javascript}

It takes as input the X (horizontal) and Y (vertical) coordinates \- starting from the TOP LEFT side of the screen.
Please note that location should not be altered at runtime when an element is anchored. Use the solutionModel in such a situation.

NOTE: getLocationX() can be used with getLocationY() to return the current location of an element; then use the X and Y coordinates with the setLocation function to set a new location. For Example:

//returns the X and Y coordinates
var x = forms.company.elements.faxBtn.getLocationX();
var y = forms.company.elements.faxBtn.getLocationY();

//sets the new location 10 px to the right; 10 px down from the current location
