Format Number Field with Commas

I have a number field that is showing as valueformat=customDataLabelsAsString when I am in text mode. I went to format it to include commas (valueformat=doubleAsInt) but when I did, the values disappeared from my report. What is the best way to format a number (text field) in a report to include commas?

Hi David,

I suspect you're looking for doubleAsRounded, which I looked up by:

  • adding a numeric column to a view
  • highlighting that column
  • clicking the Advanced Options link
  • changing the Field Options dropdown from 1234 to $1,234
  • switching to Text Mode so I could see the valueformat

Regards,

Doug
