Constraining an Integer to Negative Values

Question

I am trying to constrain input values for an integer type question to less than or equal to zero values only.  I entered

".<=0" into the constraint field, but it does not seem to work.

Please note that the constraint (and its message) is only triggered when the survey is submitted.
