remove '%gt' from a column name in matrix visualization

Hi, i have this column in a matrix and I want to remove this automatic name 

 

 

 

I want the text name as 'IVM 2017' instead of '%gt IVM 2017', is that possible?

 

 

 

 

Thanks!

    Hi hnoriega,

     

    I also tried to recreate your problem, I tried to rename a measure where I added something like "%gt"

     

    X is also a measure like in your problem.

    When I renamed it by just right clicking on it "rename"

    In my dashboard the column name automatically changed when I removed "%GT" from my measure

     

    So I am not sure why it won't work with you, maybe it is a bug ?

    hnoriega,

     

    Did you create a Quick measure to show the percentage? If that is the case, you can right click the measure in your Fields and click rename to type any name you want.

      Hi, yes its a measure. but I already have the name as the one I want.. the problem is that when I calculateas a percent of grand total is where I have that error.

       

      I only want to remove the '%GT'

       

       

       

       

      Thanks!
