Conditional formatting expressions

Valid MDX format strings contain properties that apply special rendering for the HTML pivot tables. A format string follows this syntax:

| # , # # # | style = red

The leading Pipe ( | ) tells Analyzer that this format string contains properties. The '#,###' is the measure's value format, which in this example is one number separated from three further places or decimal places by a comma, for example, '3,667'. The 'style=red' string is a key/value pair; all possible keys and values are explained in the table below.

The following properties are supported by Analyzer:
