Percentage format support in table and line chart

Could we change double format to percent style in table and other chart? such as 0.12 to 12% ?

Hi - we're going to add more formatting options, but for now if you set the formatting of the field on the Modelling tab, it should be reflected in the report visuals

I agree, it is not visually pleasant to see floats when the datasheet expressed the data type as a percentage. For example, in a line chart; the Y-axis would yield a .65 instead of 65% .

We'd use this a lot! My current "frown" experience with Power BI is not being able to set a display format for a column AND have it sortable based on the unformatted data. I.e., a column contains decimal numbers, but actually represents fractional minutes — so `1.5` should appear as "1m30s", but be sorted on the value of `1.5`.

For line chart, we would like to be able to label data labels and Y-Axis as percentages. If we can use the values from another column as labels, that would be even better!
