Different currency symbol using measure

Hello everyone! I am trying to create a measure that dynamically changes the currency symbol depending on the country selected in a slicer. It looks a bit like this at the moment: 

 

IF(SelectedCountry=1,"£"&Price,"$"&Price)

The problem with this is the number has lots and lots of decimal places, and ideally I just want it to show a whole number with the correct currency symbol, so rather than £16.1828490230 it would show £16. 

 

Is this possible?

    Hi badger123 

     

     In the place of Price, pls use INT( [Price] ). This will truncate the decimal part.

     

    Thanks

    Hi badger123 ,

     

    Change your measure to:

     

    IF(SelectedCountry=1,Format([Price],"0£"),Format([Price];"0$"))

    If you want to have decimal places make it like this

     

    IF(SelectedCountry=1,Format([Price],"0.00£"),Format([Price];"0.00$"))

    Be aware that instead of dot on the decimals can be comma depending on your regional settings.

     

    Regards,
