SRW.Set_Format_Mask not working!!

Question

Hi,
I want the number to be displayed as : 500.00 or 100.00 or 10.00 or 1.00
This format mask works in the DB
SQL> select to_char(100,'99999990.9999') from dual;
TO_CHAR(100,'9
      100.0000I right click on the Graph embedded with the report, and select "PL/SQL Editor" and added the following Format Trigger.
function CT_1FormatTrigger return boolean is
begin
    srw.set_format_mask('99999990.9999');
    return (TRUE);
end;Now when I run the report, I am not seeing the X-axis number format as 1.00, 5.00.
Why is this not working?
Thanks

If you want to display 4 decimal places you need to set decimalDigit="4". Also, make sure nothing is happening to the value before your graph gets it that would cause it not to display correctly.
Here is what the DTD for graphs looks like for the ViewFormat element:
<!-- ViewFormat specifies number formatting-->
   <!ELEMENT ViewFormat EMPTY >
   <!-- ViewFormat attributes
   numberType: format numbers as currency or percent?
   thousandSeparator: character for separating thousands
   decimalSeparator: character for separating whole number from decimal
   currencySymbol: currency symbol; numberType must be NUMTYPE_CURRENCY
   leadingZero: display leading zeros?
   decimalDigit: number of decimal digits to display
   posNumFmt: format for positive numbers
   negNumFmt: format for negative numbers
   posCurFmt: format for positive currency
   negCurFmt: format for negative currency
   scaleFactor: how much to scale (abbreviate) numbers
   scaleDownThousands: character(s) to use when numbers represent thousands
   scaleDownMillions: character(s) to use when numbers represent millions
   scaleDownBillions: character(s) to use when numbers represent billions
   scaleDownTrillions: character(s) to use when numbers represent trillions
   scaleDownQuadrillions: character(s) to use when numbers represent
        quadrillions
   javaDateFormat: Java date format
   oracleDateFormat: Oracle date format
"used" attributes specify whether one of the above properties has
   been explicitly set; used for merging when using rules
   -->You would put this inside your X or Y axis element like:
<Y1Axis lineWidth="1">
<ViewFormat decimalDigit="4" decimalSeparator="." decimalDigitUsed="true" decimalSeparatorUsed="true"/>
</Y1Axis>I don't see your X axis anywhere...maybe it it your "O1Axis" but I don't see that either, I only see "O1Title","O1TickLabel", etc.
