Conditional Formatting font text Amber
Is there a way to change the font colour of a text column [BRAG STATUS] with the values "Green", "Amber" & "Red"
I'm able to use conditional formatting to get a value by field for the first values (see pic attached) but it doesn't pick up the amber colour:
I've even tried to use a switch function to change the HEX colours but I still cant quite get it
Conditional Colour Format = SWITCH(TRUE(),MAX(audit_results[BRAG STATUS])="Green",1,MAX(audit_results[BRAG STATUS])="Amber",2,MAX(audit_results[BRAG STATUS])="Red",3)
Any help on this would be great!
Thanks,

BRAG STATUS Column2 Red 1 Amber 2 Green 3 Red 4 Amber 5 Green 6 Red 2 DAX measure
Conditional_Colour_Format = VAR __status = CALCULATE ( FIRSTNONBLANK ( audit_results[BRAG STATUS], TRUE () ) ) VAR __color = SWITCH ( __status, "Green", "#4CAF50", "Amber", "#FFC107", "Red", "#f44336" ) RETURN __color

Hexcode you have to return with #. Hope you are using "Field" option and measure. Make sure you created a measure not column

See if this helps.
