hiding % characted in the Y axis using custom format

[Tony]

Few weeks ago I have seen a presentation where by using custom format it was
possible to format the Y axis so that it was displaying the % only next to
100 and all the rest of the axis was displaying numbers without %. It was like
100%
80
60
40
20
0
I do not remember the syntax of this custom format. Can someone refresh my
memory ? How it was done ?

Regards

Sounds like someone but a textbox over the 100 to make it 100%

If the values where plain numbers then try
[>=100]General\%;General

Hi Andy,

I was a bit too quick with replying. It is still not exactly what I want. It
is showing now:
100%
0.8
0.6
0.4
0.2

while I would like to have:
100%
80
60
40
20

Could you please help me more.

Regards,

Tony

I did say plain numbers, by which I meant not those being converted to
percentages. The % in the number format not only adds the % sign it also
multiplys the value by 100.

I don't think you can lose the % sign with your data. You would need to
use a helper column to factor up the values first.

Maybe you could contact whoever gave the presentation and ask how they
did it?

Hi Andy,

I have what I wanted. I have created another column with percentage values
multiplied by 100 and used the following custom format:

[=100]General\%;General

It is displaying now what I wanted.
