Apply different format to a measure that is used several times

Answered
Javier G. asked on February 22, 2019

Hi,
When using the functionality added in version 2.6.0 "Ability to pick a measure several times for the report applying different aggregations.", is there a way to apply cell format for each measure type added instead for all the columns using the same measure?
For example, in the attached image, I'd like to apply 0 decimal places for the "Total Sum of Discount" column (since it's an integer value, it makes no sense to have decimal places) and 1 or 2 decimal places in the "Total % of Grand Total of Discount" column.
Thanks!

Hello, Javier,
Thank you for writing to us.
Currently, cell formatting is connected to the measure's uniqueName. This means a measure that is used several times has a similar format. For some cases that is not the best option. We have some plans for improving the current approach in our backlog. Still, it is a rather time-consuming task.
Therefore, could you please specify how critical this improvement is for you?
Waiting for the update from you.
Regards,
Tanya

Hi Tanya,
Thanks for your answer. Good to know you already have it on your backlog.
For us, I don't think this is going to be an issue in the short-term.
