Examples

• DOUBLE[0.00%] for percentages

• DOUBLE[#,###] to remove decimals

• DOUBLE[\$#,##0.00] for dollars

• DATE[yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss] for datetimes

The spec for the pattern between the DATE or DOUBLE’s brackets is the one from Microsoft Analysis Services. The formatter only impacts how the measure is displayed, derived measures will still be computed from unformatted value. To round a measure, use atoti.math.round() instead.

atoti provides an extra formatter for array measures:
• ARRAY['|';1:3] this formatter allows you to choose the separator to use (| in this example), and the slice of the array to display.
