Hi Caitlin,

Both of these solutions seem more complicated than should be necessary but they'll do the trick.

Method 1. Copy the values to a new column, then right click on new column and select Analysis > Normalize. Divide the default normalization constant by 100 as shown below and click OK. Then plot new column.



Method 2. Plot the data column and enter these commands in the script window...

sum(%C);
y2=sum.max;

That will set the upper display limit to the highest data value. Then select Format > Axis Tick Labels > Y Axis Tick labels, set Divide by Factor = layer1.y.To/100 and click Apply. Go to the Scale tab and adjust the tick increment or # major ticks. If the high point is clipped after making these changes select Format > Layer and uncheck the Clip Data to Frame option on the Display tab.
