Scope (2)
Use ScientificNotationThreshold with NumberForm:
For any base b, positive real numbers larger than b-5 and smaller than or equal to b6 are typeset in decimal form:
These are pairs {b6-1,b6} for bases b from 2 to 17, showing the threshold at exponent 6:
Raising the threshold to exponent 7 makes powers b6 be displayed in decimal form, for all bases:
