Exporting visuals

Dear all,

I’m writing a report in a word document and for that some Power BI visuals are relevant.

At Power BI Desktop the separator for thousands is a dot (“.”) and for decimals is a comma (“,”).

At the Power BI Service also the same rules for separators applies.

But when I copy a visual at the Power BI Service and past it into a word document the rules for the separators changes, making the dot the separator for decimals and the comma the separator for thousands.

Considering the above mentioned, my question is:

How can I copy and paste a visual into a word document without changing the format of the separators?

 

Many thanks in advance for your attention.

    How are you copying the visual and what are the regional settings for your word file? You could also consider exporting to PowerPoint or PDF to get the results you want, if you set the report up properly this could be very efficient.

      The regional settings are set out to Portugal where the comma is for decimals and the dot for millions. I think the question is related to Power BI service.

      I think Microsoft should be aware of this.

      Thanks.
