Mixpanel allows you to control how metric values are displayed, including whether numbers are shown in their full form (e.g., 14,656) or in an abbreviated/suffixed format (e.g., 14.6k). This is managed through the chart and metric unit customization settings.To fix this and display the actual (full) numbers instead of suffixed figures: 1. Open the report or metric chart where you see the suffixed numbers. 2. Locate the metric block (usually at the bottom left of the metric block). 3. Adjust the “Abbreviation” setting: There is an option to choose whether or not the result should be abbreviated. Turn off abbreviation to display the full number (e.g., 14,656 instead of 14.6k). 4. Save your changes to persist this setting in your report or board.These settings will update the chart, tooltip, and the table below the chart. Once configured, your chosen display (abbreviated or full number) will be saved and used consistently for that metric or formula across reports and boards Chart Customization.If you are seeing different formats for different events or metrics, it is likely because the abbreviation setting is configured differently for each. Adjust them as needed for consistency.

I'm sorry, but the knowledge sources do not provide explicit instructions on how to adjust the abbreviation setting specifically for metric card charts as opposed to line charts. The documentation describes how to configure abbreviation and unit settings for metrics in general, but does not differentiate between metric card charts and line charts in terms of this setting. All available guidance refers to configuring these options within the metric block, which applies to the chart, tooltip, and table, but does not specify chart-type-specific behavior Chart Customization: Configure your report axis and color.If you need chart-type-specific abbreviation settings, the knowledge sources do not confirm this is possible.
