Field Parameter data labels

Hi,

 

When using field parameters on a graph, I'm trying to show a count and also a total value, but it will only let me format the data label for the one field parameter value. Is there a way to format them seperately? One needs to be a number and one as currency.

 

My count is coming as below.

Hi @lherbert501 ,

Please have a try.

  • You apply conditional formatting to data labels based on a gradient style. You can define three colors for the lowest, middle, and highest values, and choose the number format for each value.
  • You can create dynamic format strings for measures using a separate DAX expression. You can determine how measures appear in visuals by conditionally applying a format string depending on the context.
  • You can use custom format strings for fields in the Modeling view. You can select from a list of commonly used format strings or enter your own custom format string using symbols and placeholders.
