Change date format in a visualization

I've got a model with about 14 different dates. The model is published to Power BI service. Users are now interacting with the model and adding visualizations but some want to create charts and tab...

    So what I gather is that this is not possible to do in PowerBI Service.

Hi therealomacoder 

You may also use date format.If it doesn't have the format you request,you may format it manually.

The method you show here uses the same formatting for every visualization, correct?

 

Is there a way to use a different format for each visualization?  For example, I like the longer formats for a card (Monday, June 30, 2014), but a shorter format (6/30/2014) for a table or matrix.
