Discarding Report Values Below a Specified Threshold

To prevent real small numbers from skewing a plot, you can discard small values below a specifiable threshold. Follow this procedure.

1. Double-click the X- or Y-axis of interest on an open plot display to open the Properties window for the selected axis.

2. Under the Axis tab, find the Specify Discard Values property.
3. Select the check box to enable the property.
4. Enter a value in the Discard Below field. Units specified elsewhere in the axis property are applied to this value. The Discard Below text box is inactive if the Specify Discard Values check box is cleared.
5. Click OK to apply the discard values to the report.
