How to add dollar sign to calculation widget field?

Looking to provide residents with a simple way to estimate what a proposed tax increase would be. This page functions well, but would be better if the numbers showed as dollars  (with $ and commas).

Can this be achieved?

Thanks.

Please try following:

1. Open wizard of your calculation widget:

2. And just put the dollar sign before the actual calculation:

Can you please try and let us know if this solution is good enough.

We'll wait for your response.

You're welcome!

Please try to add decimal places through calculation widget wizard:

Click Show Advanced Options and turn on this options:

It will show the number in this format:

Let me know how that worked for you!

 

What Im looking for is for commas to appear so $250,000 would include the
comma instead of being displayed as $250000.
Is this doable?
Thanks.

I'm assuming that you are referring to 'Value of your house' field?

Since that field is Calculation field and your users are inputting their values there, maybe you could use Masked input widget as that field(since there is no actual calculation there) and format as you wish.

Then you can use that field in your actual calculations:

Please let us know if that could work for you.

Thank you.
