Template parameters[Edit template data]

Parameter		Description	Type	Status
1st_number	1	The first number displayed representing the base value	Number	required
2nd_number	2	The second number displayed representing the object value	Number	optional
dec	dec	Number of decimal places to round the percentage change to	Number	optional
pre	pre	Prefix to the first and second numbers	String	optional
pre1	pre1	Prefix to the first number	String	optional
pre2	pre2	Prefix to the second number	String	optional
suf	suf	Suffix to the first and second numbers	String	optional
suf1	suf1	Suffix to the first number	String	optional
suf2	suf2	Suffix to the second number	String	optional
sort	sort	Adds or removes the {{nts}}-compatible sort key from the first two cells. The default is only to add this if a prefix or suffix is used (i.e. only if needed). Suggested values on off	Unknown	optional
italics	italics	Makes the output italic Suggested values on off Default off	Unknown	optional
bold	bold	Makes the output bold Suggested values on off Default off	Unknown	optional
invert	invert	Switches the base and object values in the calculation of percentage change Suggested values on off Default off	Unknown	optional
align	align	Adjusts the alignment of text in cells Suggested values center left right Default right	Unknown	optional
rowspan	rowspan	Adjusts the row span of cells Default 1	Number	optional
bgcolour	bgcolour	Adjusts the background colour of cells, or by default, inherits from the table Default inherit Example lightblue	Unknown	optional
disp	disp	This controls what is outputted. "|dist=out" produces the percentage change only (and thus the "|align=", "|rowspan=" and "|=bgcolour" parameters do not work with "|disp=out"). "|disp=row" produces three cells in a table row. Suggested values out row Default row	Unknown	optional
