Conditional formatting

Hi.

I should create a measure in DAX that simultaneously returns:

 

- if x < 0 then "over threshold"

- if x < 100 "close threshold"

- if x > 100 "within the threshold"

- if x < 50 (but only for CERTAIN people, for example "NY") "close threshold"

 

Where x is a measure that contains a "delta"

 

Did anyone understand me?

Thank you

    Mussaka , Assume you have measure X

     

    Then a new measure

    Switch(true(),

    [X] < 0 , "over threshold" ,

    [X] < 100 , "close threshold" ,

    "within the threshold")

     

     

    Same way you can create color measure and use that in conditional formatting using field value option

     

    Switch(true(),

    [X] < 0 , "Red" ,

    [X] < 100 , "yellow" ,

    "green")

      The problem is that "x" is not a measure, but a column; this is because I need to use it in a filter:(

      The criteria must be the following:

      - if (name of the table[measure]<0, "over threshold"

      - if (name of the table[measure]<100, "close threshold"

      - if (name of the table[measure]<50, (only for a determined number of persons, for example "english")"close threshold"

    Hi Mussaka ,

    I have created a simple sample, please refer to it to see if it helps you.

    Create a measure.

    result = IF([valuemeasure]<0,"over threshodl",IF([valuemeasure]>0&&[valuemeasure]<100,"close threshold",IF([valuemeasure]<50&&MAX('Table'[country])="english","close threshold",BLANK())))

      I have to create a slicer with 3 boxes: "over threshold", close threshold", "within the threshold" and I have 4  categories of people, "Chinese", "English" “italian”, “Spanish”. In the first box there must be all the people (Chinese, English, Italian e Spanish ) which have a negative number as a result of a measure (which is a delta). In the second box: if "Chinese" from 0 to 50 (this because their threshold is 100), if other countries from 0 to 100 (the threshold is 200); in the third box all the other possibilities except those just described.

      If correct, the slicer will return in a table only the names of the people in the 3 categories I mentioned above. I hope I have been clear enough.

      Thanks in any case for the help you will know give me.

      Best regards
