Changing number format of chart series in script

JoelOliMclean

I have a BIRT report with a chart containing sales data, I want to display the currency in the chart series labels which is achievable statically, but on my system the user can choose their currency. So I need a way to change the number format of series labels in code. I found an old forum post referencing my exact problem, but the link given by the sole commenter is a dead end now.

Here is that post: https://www.eclipse.org/forums/index.php/t/1068415/

If anyone can help I would be very grateful as I'm currently headbutting walls
