I have a customer that wishes to veiw his plots in DPlot terms of Kilovolts and Microseconds.

i.e. 20,000 volts would display as 20KV
100 microseconds would display as 100E+1

I have a method that would take care of the Y values, but can the x-axis be modified to show scientific units in this fashion?

Did you mean to write 100E+1 or 1E+2 or 10E+1? If the first then I'm confused.

Take a look at "Scientific". That will display 100 as 1E+2. If this isn't what you need please let me know.

No, I need it to display exactly how I typed it.

100 microseconds would display 100E+1

This is what the customer has requested, I just want to see if it is possible before I get back with him.

Thanks

There are no formatting options that will display 100E+1. Using 'Scientific' you'd get 1E+3 or, if you check 'Fixed number' under 'Decimal places', 1.00E+3, for example.

I'm still confused about why you want to show 100=1000, but that's your business Smile

LOL! Ok. The customer just wanted everying in units of microseconds with a scientific notation. I'll pass the word along.

Thanks for the help.
