Short
number format |
Short number format lets you format values with many digits to take up less space on the axis. For example, by using short number format you can set 1,000 to be displayed as 1k. You can define your own sets of symbols to use as short number format, but a standard symbol set is already defined. To learn more, see Short Number Format. |

Opens a dialog where you can edit or add symbol sets to use when you apply short number format. Note: It is not possible to edit or delete the Standard symbol set. |
