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:

 

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.

     

    If I answered your question, please mark my post as solution so it would appeare to others, Appreciate your Kudos👍

      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?

    Nevermind it is working.

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

    Thanks again Idrissshatila
