How to convert numbers to % in new update

I just updated to the last version, and it is missing some simple features in the modeling section, such as converting the number to a currency or percentage.

 

Where are all those options?

Hi @ivancespedesl ,

 

the new Ribbon has contextual tabs.

Contextual Tabs – Table Tools, Measure Tools, Column Tools

More tabs, also known as contextual tabs, will show up in the ribbon according to what you have selected. For example, in the previous ribbon, if you selected a visual, the contextual tabs “Format” and “Data / Drill” appear. In the new ribbon, you may have noticed that the “Modeling” tab has fewer buttons. Now, if you want to modify the structure, properties, or apply formatting to tables, columns, and measures, these options will appear as contextual tabs when you select a field in the fields list. The tools available to modify your data are now grouped according to the type of field you have selected. This should help reduce clutter and unnecessary options as you are modifying your data.

Hi @ivancespedesl ,

 

I'm using the Power bi desktop version : 2.75.5649.761 64-bit (November 2019).  I can find the option as the picture below.
