In Splunk 4.3.x pie charts using showPercent=true - is it possible to round up percent values shown on the chart?

Using SPlunk 6 - it also defaults to 3 decimal places - how to change how many decimals?

I think this will work:

yoursearchhere
| top abc showperc=true
| eval percent=round(percent,0)

Does not work:

index=abc Year=1999 | stats sum(Field1) as NewField by Group | eval NewField=round(NewField,1)

Pie chart still shows as 3 decimal value, as per it's default formatting.

It works, but you have to be sure to use the results of the round() function in your chart.

That won't work - pie chart seems to be doing percent calculations on it's own

I have the same need right now. I am wondering if do you have resolved that after this time? I am trying to round,2 but looks like that Splunk visualization do that in their own, going default to round,3

I appreciate any help.

Thank you
