Custom formatting affects only one visual

Hi all,

 

I'm trying to do a custom format in the following properties section but I wanted to affect only one visual, is it possible?

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

No, if you set it here, it will change the format of the columns in the dataset.

You can use the FORMAT() function to get the format you want and add it to a specific visual.
