Answer 1

I found a solution to my own question. I'm using a CustomTickUnit that formats numbers and adds units to the suffix, e.g. 1000000 becomes 1 GB.

I set up my tick units with the following code, which spaced them out evenly and formatted them appropriately so that they are very readable:

public void setupRangeAxis(NumberAxis rangeAxis) {
  final TickUnits standardUnits = new TickUnits();
  standardUnits.add(new CustomTickUnit(1));
  standardUnits.add(new CustomTickUnit(10));
  standardUnits.add(new CustomTickUnit(100));
  standardUnits.add(new CustomTickUnit(1000)); // Kilo
  standardUnits.add(new CustomTickUnit(10000));
  standardUnits.add(new CustomTickUnit(100000));
  standardUnits.add(new CustomTickUnit(1000000)); // Mega
  standardUnits.add(new CustomTickUnit(10000000));
  standardUnits.add(new CustomTickUnit(100000000));
  standardUnits.add(new CustomTickUnit(1000000000)); // Giga
  standardUnits.add(new CustomTickUnit(10000000000L));
  standardUnits.add(new CustomTickUnit(100000000000L));
  standardUnits.add(new CustomTickUnit(1000000000000L)); // Tera
  standardUnits.add(new CustomTickUnit(10000000000000L));
  standardUnits.add(new CustomTickUnit(100000000000000L));
  standardUnits.add(new CustomTickUnit(1000000000000000L)); // Peta
  standardUnits.add(new CustomTickUnit(10000000000000000L));
  standardUnits.add(new CustomTickUnit(100000000000000000L));
  standardUnits.add(new CustomTickUnit(1000000000000000000L)); // Exa
  rangeAxis.setStandardTickUnits(standardUnits);
}
