How to use Dynamic Formatting on a Field Parameter

Was told that Dynamic formatting could help me but I am failing in implementing it correctly.

 

I have this parameter field:

rpinxt_0-1682431140951.png

 

I use 'prmAct vs %' in my chart.

But switching between amounts and percentages screws up the formatting.

so now I want to fix this with dynamic formatting.

 

But where should I do this?

On the field 'prmAct vs %' I cannot do dynamic formatting apparently because that is just Text.

 

Can anybody put me on my way?

Hello @rpinxt ,

 

not in the field parameter, but in the main measure.

 

so the field parameters group measures, so just work on the dynamic filtering on the main measure.

Nevermind it is working.

Just needed to set formatting to 'None' instead of 'Auto'!

Thanks again @Idrissshatila

Ok @Idrissshatila I'm no trying to do this on the main measure.

First the amount like this. Looks ok:

Then I would expect the percentage to works also but...... :

Exactly the same problem that I had when using "normal" formatting....

 

What am I doing wrong?
