*Lightning Input FSC* - _(Value)_ - Value can NOT be a variable or formula, only hard coded

[JodieM]

Steps to reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Add Lightning Input FSC.
2. Use Standard Settings as per documentation

type: "number" label: "Enter a decimal value" step: "0.001"

3. Enter Value as 1234.01
4. Run
5. Click Previous
6. No Error.

Now make only one change.

3. Enter Value as a Number Variable with the same default value {!vNumber}
4. Run
5. Click Previous
6. Error: Flow encountered an error when processing and converting between data types. Please check the flow and ensure all data types are matched correctly

Expected behaviour

Coming back to the screen should show the value in the variable again, not an error.

Actual behaviour

Error: Flow encountered an error when processing and converting between data types. Please check the flow and ensure all data types are matched correctly

@JodieM I will take a look at it this week.

@JodieM Sorry for this taking so long work just got ahold of me. But I have created a PR to resolve this issue. This is also a two-fold issue in which the variable you must use must be of type String, as that is what the component is looking for.

If you want to fix this in your org, you can open the component and remove the default=' ' on the value attribute.

It was hard to figure out the issue, but it was an easy solution.
