conditional formatting

Hello, I need to set conditional format to show 3 different colors as shown below in a small sample data but cannot figure out how to do it in Power BI. Can someone please help?   Thanks in advance for your time.

 

 

  • tracyhopaulson, try this measure:

     

    Formatting Color =
    SWITCH (
        TRUE (),
        [Counted] = 0
            && [Not Counted] > 0, "Red",
        [Counted] > 0
            && [Not Counted] = 0, "Green",
        [Counted] > 0
            && [Not Counted] > 0, "Yellow"
    )

     

    Steps to apply:

     

    1. Conditional formatting > Background color

    2. Format by = Field value

    3. Based on field = Formatting Color

     

    Instead of the color names, you can use color codes (e.g., #FF0000).

  • tracyhopaulson  You can click the down arrow button on the required field and then select Conditional Formatting for defining formatting as per your requirement.
