 All notable changes to this project are documented here. The format follows [Keep a Changelog](https://keepachangelog.com/en/1.1.0/) and the project adheres to [Semantic Versioning](https://semver.org/).
 
+## [1.13.0] - 2026-11-04
+
+### Added
+
+- `decimals`, `prefix`, `suffix` and `signDisplay` (`'auto'`, `'always'` or `'never'`) write the numbers a plot shows, in `axis.locale`: on `scales.x` and `scales.y` (the ticks), `tooltip`, `styles.values` (value labels), and the `text` and `delta` markers. `'always'` writes a plus on positives, never on zero. `numbers.decimals` in the configuration sets the count everywhere but the ticks, which keep their automatic format unless `scales` sets `decimals`. A tooltip writes the value on the plot's value axis - the `x` of horizontal bars, not only the `y` - and a heatmap's color value.
+- A `text` marker's `text` can be a number, the name of a numeric field of the rows, or a function giving a number, besides a string: a number is written as the marker's display fields ask.
+- A tooltip's `format` gets a second argument, `number`, that writes a number as the tooltip's display fields ask. The `format` of a plot kind's value labels (`ValueLabelsOptions.format`) gets it too.
+
+### Changed
+
+- A `delta` writes its distance in `axis.locale` (`12,3`), not with a dot (`12.3`), and with the configuration's `numbers.decimals` when set. One decimal remains the default.
+

 Markers draw in array order. Type a markers array with `satisfies AxisBasedMarkersConfig[]` (or `GeoMarkersConfig[]`) to get completion.
 
+### Numbers in `text` and `delta` markers
+
+A `text` marker's `text` is a string, a number, the name of a field of its rows, or a function of the row giving a string or a number. A number - given, read from a field, or returned - is written as the marker's own `decimals`, `prefix`, `suffix` and `signDisplay` ask ([Number format](theming.md#number-format)); a string is drawn as it is.
+
+```ts
+{ type: 'text', data: rows, x: 'year', y: 'share', text: 'share', decimals: 1, suffix: ' %' }
+```
+
+A `delta` writes its distance the same way, with one decimal unless `decimals` or `numbers.decimals` says otherwise. `formatDiff` writes it by hand instead.

 Where the labels go depends on the plot: the end of each series on a line or area plot, one per bar on a bar, pyramid or histogram, one per point on a scatter, one per cell on a heatmap. On lines, overlapping labels spread apart, share one column and are joined to their points by elbow connectors; the right margin grows to fit them when it is `'auto'`. The spread is tuned by `text.declutter` in the [configuration](theming.md).

 `axis.locale` updates plots already on screen. `axis.compactDisplay` is read when a plot mounts, so a later change shows on the next mount.
 
+## Number format
+
+`numbers.decimals` fixes how many decimals the numbers a plot writes have: tooltips, value labels, `text` and `delta` markers. Unset (the default), each number has as many as it needs.
+
+```ts
+setConfiguration({ numbers: { decimals: 1 } }); // 12 reads as 12,0

+| `signDisplay` | `'auto'` (default) writes only a minus, `'always'` also a plus on a positive number (never on zero), `'never'` no sign at all |
+
+They are fields of `scales.x` and `scales.y` (the ticks), of `tooltip`, of `styles.values` (value labels), and of a `text` and a `delta` marker. A tooltip writes the value on the plot's value axis - the `x` of horizontal bars - and a heatmap's color value; a `text` marker writes a number that its `text` gives (see [Markers](markers.md#numbers-in-text-and-delta-markers)).
+
+A `scales` axis keeps its automatic ticks (abbreviated when they span orders of magnitude) unless it sets `decimals`: `numbers.decimals` does not reach the ticks, since a fixed count would write `5,0` for `5` on every axis. `prefix` and `suffix` alone keep the automatic format. An axis with its own `tickFormat` or `percent` ignores them.
+
 ## Edge ticks
 
 `axis.edgeTicks.x` and `axis.edgeTicks.y` (`{ enabled, collision }`, on for x and off for y, both `'drop-nice'`) add a tick at the data's first and last values beside the nice ones, on a continuous axis whose other axis is continuous too, so a reader sees where the data starts and ends. When one lands too close to a nice tick for both labels, `collision` picks what gives way: `'drop-nice'` keeps the data's tick, `'drop-edge'` keeps the nice one, `'extend'` widens the axis to the next nice tick past the data.
