Unit in front of number

Is it possible to define a unit that is displayed in front of the number?
for example € 5, instead of the default 5 €.

I could then also use to define other numeric values that are not really units like interface numbers.
for example ETH 3, instead of just 3.

Hi Arne,

No that is not possible, also doesn't seem correct to use Units for another purpose than to display the unit of a parameter.

For your example, you can use a retrieved column that you fill with the value that you need.

Hi Arne

On the Data displays (Cube/Monitoring app), this will not be possible indeed, but do know that in dashboards and low code apps, you can achieve that.

You'll need a GQI query with a column manipulation or custom operator (currently in soft launch).
