Formats allowed in this property are described on E3 User's Manual, on topic Screens and Screen Objects - Value Formatting, or leave it blank to select the Automatic mode. This property allows using a vertical bar (|) character on the formatting String as a line break.

If an Axis formatting is selected as Automatic (Axis Properties Window, Scale tab, Formatting group) and its scale type is selected as Show latest data (Real-Time) or Time interval (historical data), its date and time format obeys Windows user's regional configuration. If the scale type is selected as numeric Scale, then it uses an automatic format for numbers.
