I have a gauge node working fine for temperature when using {{value}}:

However, when it's an even number, no decimal places are shown:

I'd like this to be shown as "19.0". So I've tried angular filter using {{value | number: 1}}. But then, nothing is shown in the gauge:

There are no errors in debug log. This should be pretty standard, what am I doing wrong? Node-RED version is v1.0.4.

A number, e.g.:

You need to have **msg.payload:number** to use {{value | number:1}} in gauge.  
You have **msg.value:number**.

Or use .toFixed(1) in function, and in gauge just put {{msg.payload}} without any formatitng.
