Renaming column in a report

I have created a report with 2 columns. One of the column is aggregated using "Count". Hence the column name shows up as "Count of ColumnName" on the report. Is there a way i can rename this column and remove "Count of"??

@vanessa I get what you saying. Unfortunately I don't think that is possible yet in powerbi desktop. As an alternative you can create a new measure that is count of values in that column and name that measure as you like.

Select your visual, click on paint brush icon and you should see option to change Title.

I am refering to a table report. Title will give a title to the table visual if I am not wrong.

But, I just want to rename 1 column.

That worked. Thank You.
