Dollar sign in Floating point field component.

Question

Concern: The desired result should be a dollar sign appended to the Value in the floating point field. 
 The reason behind achiveing this is the value displayed is editable and if the dollar function is used with a textfield might result in inappropriate data being entered. To avoid data validation on textfield is there any way that a dollar sign is appended to the FloatPointField.

You can not use floating point field for this but there will be no any validation issue if you will use textField 
you can see my code below 
 
a!textField( 
 label: "Amount", 
 value: if(rule!Utils_CheckIsNull(ri!amount),ri!amount,dollar(todecimal(ri!amount))), 
 saveInto: { 
 a!save( 
 ri!amount, 
 trim( 
 save!value 
 ) 
 ) 
 }

) 
 
here ri!amount is a float variable

a!textField(
 value:if(isnull(local!ABC),null,dollar(local!ABC)),
 saveInto:local!ABC,
 validations:
 if(
 tointeger(local!ABC) = local!ABC,
 "",
 "Text not allowed"
 )
 ) 
 You can use textfield insted of FloatPointField, and apply the validation on the textfield
