Ability to retain (or edit) the format of a Currency Field in Document Designer

Nate Montgomery @ SmartSuite

Currently, a currency in the Document Designer shows up just as a number. 
The $ is missing. as well as the comma separator for thousands, etc. i.e. for a currency value of $100,000.00 it is showing 100000.00
This is needed for any document generation related to dollar amounts, invoices, contracts, etc.
The workaround currently is to use a text element for the $ or to format a formula field in the right way with a CONCAT(), but this does not account for comma breakup of the number + would save time overall

Doc Designer - Currency and Select Field Types

Gary Ford

In document designer select field types show a dot on the left side and currency has no dollar sign or 1,000's comma - I know i can clean this up with formulas, but i would rather not. Please put this on your todo list.

Thank you for posting, Gary Ford! I have a few more questions for you:

Can you provide more details about the specific documents where you're experiencing this issue?
Are there specific currencies you're working with that you'd like to see formatted differently?
Could you clarify what you mean by 'select field types show a dot on the left side'?

Jon Darbyshire US dollars - single select field and multi select field - if you look at the image i attached you will see a dot on the left side of the single select field that was placed on the smart doc
