Horizontal Chart in not possilbe in BO 5X but there is a work around. I don’t know if you like it.

now format the number
Go to font → font type (Webdings) → font size (try making less than 10)

Hi! I tried creating this one however, it didnt work?
Can you expound more on the formula?
What does ‘g’ means? Thanks!

“g” is simply the character that will then be formatted with the Symbol font later on. It may or may not work depending on the character set in use.
