Pie chart Number format

[#1]

Hi,

I'm using the following to format the digits. and i'm trying to add & 'k EUR' at the end of the formula. it works for normal table but not pie chart.
Is there any workaround for this to have the currency unit at the end?
i can't use the function in NUMBER tab, because the formula is actually within several if statements for different currency.

NUM(SalesContrib,'# ##0.##' , '.', ' ' )

Thanks

Hello, Nick

I don't know why this approach don't work for you.

because I created a small example and I see that it works fine in pie charts too.

Please, look at my example

Hey Sparur,

Thanks! it works! i didn't know i could use it like that.

Now, another question. In PRESENTATION tab, under SHOW LEGEND, i checked the box Show Number in Legend, the digit appears. how do i include the label of currency?

Unfortunately, in my version of QlikView (9.0 SR4) it doesn't work too...

I don't know why 😞

I see that legend doesn't use Number Format in Expression.

numbers in Legend will change only if you change format in Numbers tab in the properties of chart object.

I don't know what is it, Bug or special feature...

so, You should change format pattern in Number tab for your expression (see 2nd Variant pie chart) in this attachment.

Thanks Sparur for the example.

I did almost the same way, but for the legend, instead of setting it in NUMBER tab.

i use Text in chart object. so, it's just a text label i place on top of legend, thats my workaround for now.

PS: I'm on SR3 now, a bug was reported, related to search engine that always gone missing. and the fix is in SR6. Just in case, if you need a head-up watching out for this although i'm not sure if it's already fixed in sr4.
