How to set scientific notation in data tips ?

Hello ,

I would like to see scientific notation in the data tip on my plot , I attached an image of my plot , instead of that long number in the data tip I would like to have something like 77.5e13 is this possible ?

And also I want to change the scentific notation in the x axis, as you can see it displays 10^14 but I want it to be 10^13 .

Thank you.

Hello,

x = 1:10
y = rand(1,10).*1000
h = plot(x,y)
for ii = 1 : length(x)
    datatip(h, 'DataIndex', ii)
end

You can set format of each row in DataTip, by DataTipRows.Format.

dtTemplate = get(h, 'DataTipTemplate')
dtTemplate.DataTipRows(1).Format = '%e'; % adjust
dtTemplate.DataTipRows(2).Format = '%e';
