Why does changing date format not affect Matrix visualization column...

Hi All,

I change the date format in the dataset and model to a column with a date to format 3/3/1900 but in the visualization the column still shows hierarchy format of year,quarter,month,day. How do I get it to follow the format I asked for?

 

Thanks,

-Tony

Right-click on the date hierarchy in visual pane and use date instead of Hierarchy
