properties panel: extra unwanted minus-sign added

Description

Under some circumstances the properties panel adds a additional untyped minus-character. (most probably from an earlier typed negative value).

This happens reproducible with the steps below.

affects also v799.

Steps to reproduce

  1. open any board (or the attached project: propertiespanel_textitem.zip
  2. add a simple textitem near the 0,0 coordinate
  3. use the properties panel for the next steps
  4. set "Position y" to -10, ENTER (text should move some mm down)
  5. click into Orientation field, type "20", ENTER
  6. notice: the orientation accepts the value "-20", thus adding autonomous a negative sign.
  7. Is this the first operation of a newly added AI?
