EBoisseauSierra opened a new issue #14550:
URL: https://github.com/apache/superset/issues/14550
## Issue
As a keen user of Superset, I'd love to make the experience even better!
## Suggestions
1. Disable formatting timestamp for non-time columns
* Issue: When customising a non-timestamp column (e.g. Text, or Integer),
I am able to specify a Datetime format for this column… yet this doesn't make
sense really.
* Suggestion: Display the “Datetime format” input box for Timestamp-like
(or “Is Temporal == True”) columns only.
2. Add a “Format” input for non-temporal columns
* Issue: some of my columns represent physical dimensions or have units.
Yet when building charts, they are displayed as “basic numbers”.
* Suggestion: Add a “Format” imput box for non-temporal columns (and
custom metrics) to allow users to define a default formatting for values and
aggregates of this column (D3 formatting + prefix/suffix: e.g. `.2f °C` for a
`temperature` column). When using this column in graphs (e.g. hourly average
temperature vs. time), this configuration would be picked up automatically
(unless locally overriden) to format the axes.
## Context
Observations above are based on Superset `1.1.0`.
