This dialog lets you format values on column level. If you change settings for a specific column or hierarchy in this dialog the new settings will be used for that specific column or hierarchy everywhere in the analysis from then on.
For general information about formatting, see Formatting Overview.
To reach the Formatting dialog:
Right-click on a filter in the filters panel and select Format Values... from the pop-up menu, or, in the Insert Calculated Column dialog, click on the Formatting button.
Comment: The same functionality is also available in the Formatting tab of the Column Properties dialog (Edit > Column Properties).
