Dynamic Format String Measure Support

Super Filter now provides support for dynamic format string measure within the visual. This feature allows you to apply custom formatting conditions defined in a measure, offering greater flexibility and precision in displaying data.

Steps to Enable and Use:

  1. Define a measure with custom formatting conditions in Power BI. For additional guidance, review the official documentation: Create dynamic format strings for measures in Power BI Desktop.

  2. Insert the format string measure into the "Others" section of the Super Filter visual.

  3. Turn off the default number formatting option in the visual settings. The visual will now display data according to the formatting conditions defined in the measure.
