    Hi Anonymous ,

    You could use the following formula:

    Measure 2 =
VAR _countof0 =
    LEN ( [Measure] ) - LEN ( SUBSTITUTE ( [Measure], "0", "" ) )
RETURN
    IF (
        _countof0 <= 2,
        FORMAT ( ROUND ( [Measure] / 1000, 1 ), "$0.0" ) & "" & "K",
        IF (
            _countof0 > 2
                && _countof0 < 5,
            FORMAT ( ROUND ( [Measure] / 1000, 1 ), "$#" ) & "" & "K",
            IF (
                _countof0 = 5,
                FORMAT ( ROUND ( [Measure] / 1000000, 1 ), "$#.0" ) & "" & "M",
                IF (
                    _countof0 > 5
                        && _countof0 < 8,
                    FORMAT ( ROUND ( [Measure] / 1000000, 1 ), "$#" ) & "" & "M"
                )
            )
        )
    )

    My output looks like this:

Try turning off the auto formatting in the card. I don't remember where it is, I think it is on one of the top few format menus.

    I tried doing that and still had the same issue with the decimal point remaining. I would actually use the "Auto" feature, but they switch between none and two decimal places, not one, which is what I'm trying to accomplish.
