Hi,
I am currently dealing with an issue whereby I want the number of decimal places for a measure be dynamic.
The use case is, if I select Option A in a slicer, the measure shows 2 decimal places. If I then select Option B for the slicer, the measure will show 1 decimal place.
However, I also need to keep the measure as a number, not text.
My current Dax is:
Measure 2 =
IF(HASONEVALUE(Table[Slicer]) && VALUES(Table[Slicer]) = "A",
FORMAT(ROUND([Measure1], 2), ""),
FORMAT(ROUND([Measure1], 1), ""))
This returns the correct values but as text not a number. Is anyone able to help? Cheers

Hi @Anonymous ,
It seems impossible to make the number fields show with one decimal place and two decimal places at the same time if you still want to keep its data type as Numeric type...

What are using format round should be enough
Measure 2 =
IF(HASONEVALUE(Table[Slicer]) && VALUES(Table[Slicer]) = "A",
ROUND([Measure1], 2),
ROUND([Measure1], 1))
Thanks for the suggestion. I have tried this, but when I toggle to Option B, I am left with trailing 0's.
E.g. If Table[Slicer] = "B"
My values will be:
9.80
8.40
3.30
And so on. I need them to be 9.8, 8.4....
This is when the number of decimal places for the filed formatting and the matrix formatting are both auto.

Hi @v-yiruan-msft,
Thanks for the straight answer. I am currently using a workaround solution with one matrix column containing text with dynamic decimals, then another column with numeric values for the data bars (without data labels). Obviously not an ideal solution.
