Implemented
KPI Design - Auto Number formatting (billions, millions etc)
What we're doing:
We use the Vizlib KPI everywhere, even with large numbers like advertising impressions, which are in the billions!
Challenge we face:
We want to amplify our most important metrics but it is hard to do this with 12 or 14 digit numbers in a small space. Ideally, below, we would show 123.4 Billion instead of the really long number. This way, we can use a fixed font size, which keeps the designers happy ;)
Please could we see some auto formatting in the vizlib KPI?
k = 1000
m= 1,000,000
b = 1,000,000,000
etc... (probably symbols for decimals for those that may be interested?)
We have released a new version of the Vizlib KPI today, version 1.4. This version has customisable numerical abbreviations for the number format
