Format numbers

Hi,

 

Is there a way to format numbers with DAX? I've been trying to find a way to present 3 111 000,00€ But what i get is 3.100.100,00€. I can't change the localization of my PowerBI Desktop and i can't find this formatting in the Currency -settings of a measure. 

 

Any ideas? The goal is to have a space as the thousand separator and comma as a decimal point. E.g: 3 111 000,00 €

You can define your own format in Data view.  The details are here:

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-gb/power-bi/create-reports/desktop-custom-format-strings 

It might be something like this

# ### ###.##

 

The decimal placeholder is defined using .   but the actual character comes from regional settings on the pc / regional settings in the report
