Widget Text and Column formatting Megathread

[DRay]

Hello Everyone!

There are a lot of Ideas around improving the ability to format the text in Widgets. We appreciate all the feedback! In order to make it easer for people to find and contribute to the discussion, I am combining them into this thread.

Everyone, what are the customizations that you would like to see in the GUI rather than using a script?

One of the ways we prioritize development efforts is by community interest. I encourage everyone to vote and comment on this suggestion and its comments. The more engagement a request receives, the higher the likelihood of it being considered for implementation.

Thank you for participating, and we are excited to work with you to make a better Sisense!

Have a great day!

Formatting left align, right align, center in tables. 

Numbers should default to right aligned.

Text should default to left aligned.

Default numbers to show same number of decimal places instead of variable. Makes it hard to scan a list in the table of pivot table widget

Setting default formats in the data model (e.g. currency fields by default may want to show 2 decimal places or may want to default to no decimal places,  may want the item price or exchange rate field to default to 4 decimals).

Hello @soporteparaptx.

This is possible through a widget script. 

Can you look at this post and let us know if it works for you?

Correct. the point of this thread was what should be done without scripts. Right aligning numbers should NOT have to be done with a script.  That should be default behavior in a table or Pivot.
