+==== Overview ====
+The IntegerTextField graphic is a Basic Layout text field graphic used to display or enter whole-number values.
+IntegerTextField is a formatted text field for integer values. Only integer values between the configured **Minimum Value** and **Maximum Value** may be entered.
+IntegerTextField shares common properties with other Basic Layout text field graphics. See [[mistudio:design_editor:basic_layout:text_fields:text_field_common_properties|Text Field Common Properties]] for shared font, color, editable, enabled, background, visibility, and data source behavior.
+==== Common Uses ====
+  * Displaying whole-number values
+  * Entering integer values
+  * Setting numeric values without decimal places
+  * Showing values from a numeric data source
+  * Sending whole-number values into application logic
+==== Input Behavior ====
+The IntegerTextField display can be updated from an input connection.
+This can be useful when the IntegerTextField needs to show a numeric value from a data source, calculation, or another logic component.
+==== Output Behavior ====
+IntegerTextField sends the entered number as a **Long Value Object**.
+This allows the entered or displayed integer value to be used by other logic components.
+==== IntegerTextField-Specific Behavior ====
+IntegerTextField is designed for whole-number numeric values.
+IntegerTextField-specific settings may include:
+  * **Minimum Value** Sets the lowest value allowed.
+  * **Maximum Value** Sets the highest value allowed.
+  * **Horizontal Alignment** Controls how the value is aligned inside the field.
+  * **Cursor Color** Sets the cursor color.
+  * **Selected Text Color** Sets the selected text color.
+  * **Selection Color** Sets the background color used for selected text.
+==== Logic Ports ====
+In the Logic Editor, IntegerTextField may include ports such as:
+  * **PrimaryOutPort**
+  * **updateDisplayedValue**
+The exact available ports may depend on the current MIStudio version and configuration.
+==== Notes ====
+Use IntegerTextField when only whole-number values are needed.
+For decimal numeric values, see [[mistudio:design_editor:basic_layout:text_fields:doubletextfield|DoubleTextField]].
+For general single-line text, see [[mistudio:design_editor:basic_layout:text_fields:textfield|TextField]].
+For longer or multi-line text, see [[mistudio:design_editor:basic_layout:text_fields:textarea|TextArea]].
+For shared text field settings, see [[mistudio:design_editor:basic_layout:text_fields:text_field_common_properties|Text Field Common Properties]].
+For general graphic behavior, see [[mistudio:design_editor:active_graphic|Active Graphic]].
