thousand separators and local settings

Hi Everyone

 

I'm reading some post for the solution about the thousand separators but I can solve my problem so here is the question.

 

Actually I'm working in a PowerBI Dashboard but when I try to include some thousand separators the figures have some bad. for example for my local machine the thousand separator is a coma (,) and the decimal places is marked for a dot (.) the idea is inverte this two caracters.

 

 

Thanks for the help!

    Hi Anonymous ,

     

    The setting in the Power BI Service is in “Setting” – “General” – “Language”, if you want to set the thousand separators to dot, you can try to set this to Deutsch, otherwise just set it to English just like your local setting.

      dear v-lid-msft  thanks for your answer, the solution is perfect for the PowerBI online, when I change the language to english the data works perfect, but in the desktop and mobile app doesn't work... 

       

      when you change the language of the mobile and the laptop work perfecly.... but, Is posible define the language of some product without change the machine settings?

       

      Thanks

        Hi Anonymous,

         

        Based on my research, it is not supported yet currently. You can come up a new idea and add your comments there to make this feature coming sooner.
