I am using Kibana 5.1. I have a Metrics Visualization which shows Revenue in Dollars, now it only shows the number. I want to change the format to put a Dollar sign in the front of the number. I know using painless script might help, but I cannot get the correct syntax, can anybody help me?

I did find a way to have the $ or any Prefix/Suffix added to your display. I changed it in the Index patterns.
management \> Index patterns \> Select the index with the field you want to change \> find the Name of the value that you want the $ added to \> Controls \> Format change to Number \> change Numeral.js format pattern 0,0.[000] to $0,0.[000].
Now anywhere you are using that field in Visuals will have the $ prefix.
