@izharaazmi It just adds the "Use Global" feature to the number formfield, similar to what is already there for a text field.
Result is this, where the first field is a number field and the second a text field:

Thanks @Bakual. Looks like this is a new feature that I am unaware of so far. I'll look into the code for more.

This PR adds the attribute useglobal to the number form field.
This functionality allows component developers to offer the possibility for the user to choose Use Global as option in the configuration of a menu item. JFormFieldNumber realizes this just as JFormFieldText: if you remove the content of the field, the component will use the value of the global configuration.
The global value with the notice is displayed as placeholder.
This option is not compatible with default and placeholder.
