This is my current way of converting a CGFloat to String in Swift:
let x:Float = Float(CGFloat)
let y:Int = Int(x)
let z:String = String(y)
Is
The fast way:
let x = CGFloat(12.345)
let s = String(format: "%.3f", Double(x))
The better way, because it takes care on locales:
let x = CGFloat(12.345)
let numberFormatter = NSNumberFormatter()
numberFormatter.numberStyle = .DecimalStyle
numberFormatter.minimumFractionDigits = 3
numberFormatter.maximumFractionDigits = 3
let s = numberFormatter.stringFromNumber(x)
