Chart - digital display doesn't change according to applied multiplier

[ceties]

Hello,

I just realized that the digital display that can be showed for every plot in the chart doesn't reflect the multiplier value of corresponding YAxis. Is it expected behaviour? How to overcome it (besides making my own indicator of this kind)?

On the attached pic the digital display is just customized to look more fancy

I would agree that you can argue that it's not intuititive. Is it expected behavior? Yes, if you assume that the purpose of the digital display is to show the actual value, not the scaled value. Unfortunately, it's not really documented, so it's merely speculation. The LabVIEW Help has this to say regarding the Offset and Multiplier:

Cluster of offset(Xo) and multiplier(deltaX) for scaling values such that the final value equals (deltaX)*X + Xo. 

Thus, the question is whether the digital display is supposed to show the raw value of the final value. 

There is no way to change the behavior, so you would need to make your own indicator.
