Card visual formatting options

[qmestu]

Hi,

I'm creating a measure where i combine text and values and adding this to a card so i can display a KPI. However the formatting options for the card visual are very basic. Is there a way to reduce the padding or margins of the card or to format the measure to include text of different sizes? If that's not possible, is there a 3rd party card visual that could achieve this?

Thanks.

@qmestu you can use the built in Text Box in Power BI that also let you use measures embedded in the text and there you can format each element independently:

Hi

I've just seen this post and this is a really good tip/alternative. I tried this out using Adventure Works DW 2020 pbix file. However, when using sum or any other function for 'Sales'[Sales Amount] it returns 121253 which is a count of the rows. It should be returning $109.81million. Is there any more to this that should be known about? I would like to get this to work. Thanks.

I created a measure and used that and it works a treat, which will suffice. Thanks for the useful post.
