I just tried this method and it does work if you are using integers or whole
numbers. However, I am working with time on my x axis. So when I zoom too
close, floating point numbers are required... Is there any way to just turn
off the exponent number in the right corner and force the x tick labels to
be integers or floating point depending on how close one is zoomed?
