Reference question- [How can I change legend names dynamically as per parameter control selection?](https://community.amazonquick.com/t/how-can-i-change-legend-names-dynamically-as-per-parameter-control-selection/36677) With reference to the above chart, I have calculations in metric1,Metric2 which are a mix of numbers and percentages. I would like to display a % sign when a percentage metric is selected in the dropdown. How do I implement that? I understand I can select the data type for overall metric1 and not individually? Is there any workaround? I also tried directly using a calculated fields inside the metric1 but it shows me an aggregation error so I had to put the calculations inside metric1 only. ---

Hi @Rishita_Chebrolu, There is no way to utilize different types of metrics on the same visual. The best work around for this case would be to utilize a free form layout; create a visual that utilizes percentages and one that utilizes numbers. Under the ‘rules’ section, set each visual to ‘hide this visual by default’. Then create a rule for each one to ‘show visual’ based on what your parameter is set as on the dropdown. Let me know if you have any additional questions! ---

But this would only when both the selected metrics in bar and line are %. If one is a % and the other is a number it would show number also as %. ---

Hi @Rishita_Chebrolu, I’m not quite sure what you mean, could you please elaborate? As mentioned above, there are current limitations that don’t allow visuals to show numbers and percentages at the same time. ---
