# How to specify number of decimal places in node near coords?

Is there a way to specify that node near coords labels should use 1 rather than 2 decimal places? For example, in the code below, Singapore is printed with 8.1 (correct), but Niger is printed with 46.12 (wrong) when I want it instead to be 46.1 (correct).

\documentclass{standalone}

\usepackage{pgfplots}
\pgfplotsset{compat=1.12}

\begin{document}
\begin{tikzpicture}
\begin{axis}[
xlabel={Birth rate (births/1,000 population)},
symbolic y coords={Niger,United States,Singapore},
ytick=data,
xbar,
nodes near coords, nodes near coords align={horizontal}]

(46.12,Niger)
(13.42,United States)
(8.10,Singapore)
};

\end{axis}
\end{tikzpicture}
\end{document}


Use

nodes near coords style={/pgf/number format/.cd,precision=1}


or

nodes near coords style={/pgf/number format/.cd,fixed zerofill,precision=1}


With fixed zerofill a value like 4.00 will be printed as 4.0.

Code:

\documentclass{standalone}
\usepackage{pgfplots}
\pgfplotsset{compat=1.12}
\begin{document}
\begin{tikzpicture}
\begin{axis}[
xlabel={Birth rate (births/1,000 population)},
symbolic y coords={Niger,United States,Singapore},
ytick=data,
xbar,
nodes near coords,
nodes near coords style={/pgf/number format/.cd,fixed zerofill,precision=1},%<- added
