NSNumberFormatter only rounds to 3 decimal places

Question

Hi, I'm trying to use NSNumberFormatter to round a number to 5 decimal places in an iPhone app, but [formatter stringFromNumber:] always returns strings rounded to 0.001 (3 decimal places). What am I doing wrong??? Many thanks.

formatter = [[NSNumberFormatter alloc] init];
[formatter setNumberStyle:NSNumberFormatterDecimalStyle];
[formatter setRoundingMode:NSNumberFormatterRoundHalfUp];
[formatter setSecondaryGroupingSize:3];
[formatter setRoundingIncrement:[NSNumber numberWithDouble:0.00001]];

Answer 1

Try [formatter setFormat:@"0.00000"]; instead of setRoundingIncrement:.

Answer 2

Try -setMaximumFractionDigits: and -setMinimumFractionDigits: (links require login).
