Persistence of Custom Formatting

I've noticed that, if I set custom formatting for a measure (Measure A), and later redefine the measure to incorporate a different measure in its calculation that does not have custom formatting (Measure B), the custom formatting on Measure A will revert to the formatting of Measure B.

 

Is this a feature or a bug?

Hi @MasterP,

I think your measures that integrate into one measure has different formats, right? Field custom format will be ignored if you change in the fields after you configure it or work with dynamic results based on different fields/measures.

I'd like to suggest you submit an idea to improve this feature.

@MasterP The information you have provided is not making the problem clear to me. Can you please explain with an example.

If you have created a measure on Top on Measure A and later changed the formatting of Measure A, New measure will not pick.

 

Also if you have changed the new measure, with different source and if its data type has not changed, It may not pick up formatting from the new base columns
Appreciate your Kudos.
