Hello all,

I am sourcing the legend text from the 1st row in the worksheet. It is a serial dilution, so it drops away fast through orders of magnitude. On the worksheet it is represented as 0.00000034731283 but I would love the legend to say "3.47 x 10-7" for example. The legend has decided to change to scientific notation once it goes below x 10-5 but I'd just like it all to be one way or the other.

Thanks,

Jason

Hi, Jason

You can update the legend as below to get value as you want

\l(1) %(1, @WT, 2, 1, W) //display to be the same as worksheet
\l(1) %(1, @WT, 2, 1, .14) //set decimal place as 14

Try

\l(1) $(y,*3)
*3 means keep 3 significant digits.


Thanks, Snow
