Keep Abbreviation Scales Consistent

It'd be great to have data label / tool tips / hover text etc to keep the same level of abbreviation rather than the level which gives the closest full number.

 

For example if I'm graphing two values 1.4M and 100k at first glance it appears that the 100 is greater than the 1.4 and causes the user to do some mental math to understand that 100k is actually less than 1.4M. It'd be great to keep the scales consistent so that it allows the user to expend less mental energy attemping to decipher the graph. That'd mean for this example they'd display as 1.4M and 0.1M

  • Just found out I can do this by utilizing the "Divide Scale By" in the bar / line Value scale sections which is a bit counter intuitive when the "Use Scale Abbreviations" under "Data Label Settings".
