Custom Pop-up Text: Right align

Tue, 11 Aug 2015 16:45:54 GMT

Is it possible to right align text in a pop up expression OR even better add a TAB space.

I have:

Value: $344,444,234

Value2: $544,656,443

I want:

Value: $343,434,544

Value2: $323,131,464

Try like this(not ideal)

You need to add another expression and set it as "Text as Pop-up"

chr(9) is a Tab and as you se there are manually adjusted spaces after ":" for each category

On Presentation tab:

End result

Yes, that is the only way I see to do it now, but as you can see they are not right-aligned exactly in your example and if the data changes it wouldn't space out dynamically. Is there any other way?

I do not think so.

Perhaps that would be quite nice feature but you may consider how helpful this is for you/users.

Do they really need that?

Well, when I'm referencing numbers in the pop-up, it is best for readability to have them right-aligned. It also helps for comparisons as I have more than one number listed.

Thanks for your suggestions though.
