    Add the ability to align the column content in tables, e.g. left- and right-aligned, centred, etc. in Power BI Desktop.

    Please add, this is a simple feature that will do wonders for the final output of my reports -- and everyone else's reports on this forum.

    This seems extremely simple and would greatly making our reports more visually appealing. Every other Microsoft application has this type of functionality, it's amazing Power BI does not.

    RE: Ability to align the column content

    I would like to echo the comments below. It's hard to create a dashboard with such great elements and have your numbers align to the left. The feedback I'm getting is that it looks sloppy and it's tough for people to resolve the math.

    If the title can be center or right justified, I hope that the contents wouldn't be that tough to align as well... this one would be a big win!
