I feel like I’ve completely overlooked it but I’m not seeing a way to format the values on the tick marks. For example, a Time Series trend from values ranging from 1900 to 2000 show “1.9k” for every tick mark and I’d like to show the full value formatted to decimal.

I’ve run into the same issue as you, just with numbers showing as “600m” instead of “0.6”

I haven’t found any way to do this and hope there is a solution eventually.

@bridress1, @md.szyman, for this first release, those axis number values are autogenerated based on the format of the underlying chart library, [React Timeseries Charts](https://software.es.net/react-timeseries-charts/#/). In a future release, we will be able to provide selectable options (and user-provided strings) that will correspond to the format of the axis labels.

Jball, is there a timeframe for updates to the trend objects in perspective?

@drumdubb, there was an update that went out in 8.0.6 that allowed proper decimal number display on the Y axis. We still need to build the ability to assign a number format to the data displayed on the Y Axis. No timeframe for that yet, but the decimal formatting that was done in 8.0.6 is much better that what was displaying previously. You won’t see those `1.9k` values anymore; just the actual number value.
