WPS Spreadsheet’s number formatting tools let you transform raw numbers into insightful, well-presented information
From billing data and ratios to calendar dates and huge statistics
customizing the layout reinforces precision and enhances document quality
Your first step is to pick out the cells whose number display you’d like to change
You can highlight one cell, a block of cells, or full columns and rows via mouse drag or by holding Ctrl for disjointed selections
Head to the Home ribbon section, which is always visible at the screen’s top
Within the Number section, locate the Number Format dropdown button
A quick menu appears featuring formats like General, Number, Currency, Accounting, Percentage, Fraction, Scientific, and Date
Picking a preset applies a predefined layout to all selected cells
When you choose Currency, numbers appear as $1,234.56 with standard monetary notation
Meanwhile, the Percentage option scales values by 100 and appends a % sign
For advanced control, tap the small arrow icon in the lower-right corner of the Number panel
This dialog offers expanded options and enables fully personalized number styling
The left sidebar displays categories such as Number, Currency, Date, and more
Within each group, numerous customizable settings are available
You can set decimal points, turn on
To build your own format, scroll to and select Custom in the categories panel
You can type a custom pattern using wps office’s designated format tokens
Typing #,##0.00 formats values with comma separators and two decimal digits
The format #,##0.00_);Red displays positives normally and negatives in red with parentheses
Semicolons delineate four formatting zones: positive values, negative values, zero displays, and text responses
If you only want to customize positive and negative numbers, you can leave the third and fourth sections blank
Use custom formatting to combine numbers with labels like "units" or "kg"
For instance, entering 0" units" will show 50 as 50 units
Typing 0" MB" renders 1024 as "1024 MB"
This is particularly useful for reports and dashboards where context matters
You can also re-scale numbers to display in thousands, millions, or more
For example, entering 0.0, will display 12345 as 12.3, effectively showing the number in thousands without changing the actual value
To scale to millions, enter 0.0,,
Scaling numbers avoids overwhelming users with excessive digits
Your formulas still use the original numbers, regardless of how they’re shown
It only changes the visual output, not the stored value
Formulas continue to function correctly, no matter the formatting
Click OK to finalize and apply your custom number format
All selected cells are reformatted in real time
The dialog remains accessible for future edits or resets
For consistency across your workbook, consider creating a template with your preferred number formats and saving it for future use
WPS Spreadsheet’s number formatting tools are a vital, low-effort way to boost clarity and impact
By taking advantage of both the built-in presets and the flexibility of custom codes, you can tailor your numbers to match the requirements of your audience and the context of your work
