Hi two questions in one:
I haven't been able to figure out the answer from the manual: I have a table of data with strings in the first column:
I'd like to apply some key-values (e.g. fonts by sign) to the numeric columns only. Is there a quick way of doing so?
something like
every numeric column/.style={fonts by sign={}{\color{red}}
or
every columns nos {2,3,4}/.style={fonts by sign={}{\color{red}}
MWE to work on below
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{pgfplotstable}
\begin{document}
\pgfplotstableread[row sep=\\,col sep=&,header=false]{
a & 1 & 2\\
b & 2 & -2\\
c & 3 & 0.5\\
}\atable
\pgfplotstabletypeset[fixed,
zerofill,
fonts by sign={}{\color{red}},
every first column/.style={string type}]\atable
\end{document}

You can use

dec sep align
is used to align the numbers at the decimal point.Full code:
