Modify default symbol for when value is too wide for column width

The default symbol for column width is a pound sign (#).

Is there any way to change this symbol to another?

I think not, but if you convert it to a Text you get a String with ... at the end of Cell.

This is my understanding of his question. First column is a number second a text. He will change the # sign as symbol that the value is to long on this cell.

Jonas understnds the question, but it sounds like the answer is no. I am storing dates there (at times) although most of the time it is a Y/N. I was hoping to change symbol to some calendar symbol and when they mouse over they can see the date.
