Hello,

I am trying to create a string from a float. But i want only 3 digits after the decimal place. Here's my code.

float a = 2.036;
NSString *str = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"?",a];

But this does not seem to work. Everytime it creates the string it is 2.036000 instead of 2.036

What should be the format specifier to do this ?

I think you have to use %1.3f as specifier.

Greetings
Jens
