Dataview symbol after function

Is there a way to have the figures centralised  aligned and have the percentage sign next to the figure rather than at the end of the block? Also is it possible to get the percentage sign inside parenthesis'?

    Hi Jack Footer,

     

    if you want the column to be centralized with the percentage sign in paranthesis' you can try to visualize the column as a concatenation of the value and the "(%)" by using a text block like this for example:

    image

    Normally you have to round your value since board gives the exact value back if you use a text column to show it.

     

    For the text alignment you can just use the standard formatting settings:

    image

     

    But in general, I prefer the unit or sign to be shown directly in the column header of the dataview of every single row element since it is just redundant information.

     

    Hope this helps

     

    Best regards,

    Bettina

    Unfortunately I am using a rule so its only one row in which I will want the percentages... I didn't know if there was a way of doing it in the cell templates

    Hi Jack Footer,

    the entity's layout template offers the same possibilities for formatting your cells as the format tab in your DataView's layout. You would just need to only apply this to the cells, not the complete layout.
