Date format in Power BI

Hi,

 

I just created a Matrix Visual in Power BI Desktop.  For one of the displayed "Values", I chose to the display the "Latest" date stored in a Date field.  It is working fine, but dates are displayed in long format like "Friday, December 06, 2024".  I would prefer to have this displayed as 12/06/24, but I havent been able to find where or how I can change this.  If anyone here can give me a clue, I would greatly appreciate it.

 

Thanks in advance,
Paul

  • select the date field in the Data sectional

    Then in the top menu change the format to "Short Date"
