Format Numeric Values in a Visualization
You can apply formatting to numeric values in a visualization.
You can choose to display 1,000 as a currency value (that is, $1,000.00) or in scientific format (that is, 1E03).
- Open an existing dashboard.
- Click on the visualization to format.
- In the Editor panel, right-click the object whose values you want to format, and choose Number Format. You can also right-click the object's name or value in the visualization.
- In the pop-up dialog, select the type of numeric formatting you want to apply from the drop-down list (Automatic, Fixed, Currency, etc.).
-
If the predefined formatting types do not meet your needs, you can create a custom format using the Custom option. Enter the format for displaying numbers, along with the symbols to display them. The pound symbol (#) represents the numeric value.
Enter #.## to display a number with two decimal places.
Click Condense to display numbers in a condensed format, such as 1.5 M for 1,500,000.
If you encounter an issue with displaying custom number formats in graphs, add a semicolon to the end of the custom number format. See KB486128 for more information.
- Enter additional numeric formatting options. As you make changes, a preview of the numeric value appears.
- Click OK.
