If the you add is for a Number or Date Property, you can customize how that information is formatted.
To see formatting options, click on the pencil in the Magic Text chip
For numbers:
Saving Numbers in the Database
Whole numbers must be entered without symbols (no commas or periods). Decimals must be denoted by either a period (.) or a comma (,)
Formatting Number for Displaying
You can select whether the number should have commas, be abbreviated, or be displayed as currency.
Prefixes and Suffixes
Prefixes and Suffixes can make your text even more magical by smartly showing the right word depending on whether the number is singular or plural.
For example, if you are showing a count of Trips, you can set the singular suffix to "Trip" and the plural suffix and "Trips." Then your app will automatically show "1 Trip" or "2 Trips"
For dates:
You can elect whether you want your data formatted as a Date or Date/Time, Day of the Week, or Relative (i.e., 3 days ago)
