Default decimal places

[PiDomeParticipant]

Hi All,

I’m using a base class to show graphs in a mixed value environment. The default setting for decimal places is set to two. What happens is that when there are no decimal places is that the value on the y axis does not show the “.00” behind a whole number, but when there are it shows “.23”, which is correct in my case of the usage of the graphs.

But, when i use formatSettings: {decimalPlaces: 3} the above mentioned behaviour does not apply anymore and whole values on the y axis are showing “.000” behind a whole number.

Should i use a custom formatter or am i using an incorrect setting?

Best regards,
John.

Hello John,

The default decimalPlaces (not set), which trims “.00” is not the same as decimalPlaces: 2, which retains them. We recommend you to use formatFunction to be able to modify the displayed value however you wish, e.g.:

{ dataField: 'Debt', displayText: 'Debt per Capita', showLabels: true, showLabels: true, formatFunction: function (value, a, b, c) {
    var float = parseFloat(value);
    var int = parseInt(value);
    if (float == int) {
        return int;
    } else {
        return float.toFixed(3);
    };
}
}

Best Regards,

Hi Dimitar,

Maybe i’ve overlooked it but this explains the usage of decimalPlaces. Thank you for your response and example.

Best regards,
John.
