Custom number format specifiers
Custom number formatting supports the following specifiers to define precision and prefixes:
| Specifier function | Example string and output 3 | |
|---|---|---|
| s | Format a fixed number of significant figures with an informal prefix 1 | .2s → 120B |
| S | Format a fixed number of decimal places with an informal prefix | .2S → 123.46B |
| g | Format a fixed number of significant figures with an SI prefix 2 | .2g → 120G |
| G | Format a fixed number of decimal places with an SI prefix | .2G → 123.46G |
1 Informal prefixes include k (thousand), M (million), B (billion), T (trillion), etc.
2 SI prefixes include k (kilo), M (mega), G (giga), T (tera), etc.
3 The example demonstrates the output of the custom format string when applied to the value 123,455,000,000.
Bug fixes

- Users can now consistently use the Set favorite setting in workbooks.
- Workbooks no longer require a browser refresh to reflect deleted tags.
