Property Value

Type Description
String

A String value that specifies the pattern used to format the summary value.

Remarks

The summary value is displayed below the SummaryItemBase.Caption.

Total Summary caption

Use the DisplayFormat property to format the summary value and add any text to its textual representation. The general pattern is shown below:

[custom static text] {0:[format specifier][precision specifier]} [custom static text]

  • {0} - the summary value’s placeholder;
  • Format specifier - specifies the formating type (currency, scientific, etc);
  • Precision specifier - specifies the number of characters displayed after the decimal point.

Example

To display currency values, set the DisplayFormat property to ‘{0:c2}‘. If the summary value is 100, its formatted equivalent will be ‘$100.00‘.
