Dynamic format strings

Hi Everybody,

 

According to the feature summary of the February 2022 release, it is now possible to support dynamic format strings in custom visuals: Dynamic format string support. The link contains a snippet that should be added to the capabilities.json. However, even after adding this snippet (and updating to API version 4.2.0), I still don't get any format strings in the data view when using my custom visual on a dataset that contains calculation groups. Am I missing something here? Do I need to handle the formatString property in enumerateObjectInstances()? Any help would be appreciated.

 

Thanks,

Robert
