Graph Labels as Base-Exponent

Hi,

Couldn't find a format that can show a graph axis labels as powers of 10. The Scientific format or Engineering format show the labels like 1e-2 or 10e-3.

I am looking to write them as base-exponent type.

Is this possible?

Regards,

Saeid

Have you explored the Axis Settings for the setting of the type of axis?

Of course. This format is for log scales, to make something like this.

I approximated your desired Axis scaling by taking the log of the data, and then applying the Value Labels column property to the data.  I used the Allow Ranges

Then I just plotted the data

It isn't exactly what you want, but it might be useful.  Others in the community may have a better solution

This is not a good solution. Can any tech person from jmp solve the issue?

 

Re: Graph Labels as Base-Exponent

I am not sure if this result is what you want. Here is weight versus height from Big Class example.

I created a new variable, height 2, by applying the Log10() function to height. The name is arbitrary but cannot be height. Now the axis is exponent. This example has a small range, but you can use the axis settings to round the value displayed to suit your need.
