setting value of dijit/form/numbertextbox sets displayedValue -- not value

I'm setting the value of a dijit/form/NumberTextBox programatically and when I debug I see that the displayedValue has been set, not the value. Any idea why it would behave this way? My NumberTextBox is located on a template widget, maybe that has something to do with it?

Template:

<input type="text"
               style="width: 50px; height:20px;"
    data-dojo-type="dijit/form/NumberTextBox"
    required="true" 
    data-dojo-attach-point="tbDiam"
    data-dojo-props="constraints:{min:6,max:100,places:0},
    invalidMessage:'Please enter numeric value, no decimals.',
    rangeMessage:'Invalid diameter.' ""/>

Setting the value:

this.tbDiam.set("value", "25");

getting the value:

this.tbDiam.value; //undefined
this.tbDiam.displayedValue();//"25"

Thanks

The value of a dojo form widget can be retrieved by using get("value"). The reason why the .value does not work is that tbDiam is just a wrapper for the actual input and doesn't actually hold the value of the input. So tbDiam.get("value") should return what you want.
