Does something like this help?

You could do something similar using CL but that is the format you would have to put in the label field of the graph.

Let me know if you’d like me to send you a CL example or if the link above is enough to get you started.

Thanks,

You can also put backticks around the number if you want to include it as part of a latex string or format it as nice as mathy!
