Auto Scale in Number
Specifies whether to automatically scale the KPI values that are of the Number data type when the values fall into the two ranges:
- When 1000 <= value < 10^15, the following quantity unit symbols of the International System of Units are used to scale the values: K (10^3), M (10^6), G (10^9), and T (10^12).
- When 0 < value < 0.001 or value >= 10^15, scientific notation is used to scale the values.
By default it is set to auto which means that the setting follows that of the chart platform. When it is true, the specified format applies to the integer part of the values after scaled, but if the specified format conflicts with Auto Scale in Number, for example, the values are displayed in percentage, then the Auto Scale in Number setting is ignored.
