How to do conditional formatting having different rules for the same column

Hi,

 

I am trying  to attach conditional formatting for one of the columns in my report. Now I have different set of rules for different rows of the same column. Is there a way to add different set of rules for conditional formatting in the same column?

I will really appreciate any suggestions.

 

Kind Regards,

Ayush

    Yes, it should be possible.  Can you share some sample data and expected results?  Please share the sample data in a table format, not a screen shot.

      I want to add conditional formatting on Indicator column where the first two rows have a percentage calculated value and the bottom one is the difference between Second and third columns.

        In your example can you tell me what is a column in a table and what is a measure?

    Hi Anonymous ,

     

    You could create a measure to set different rules of conditional formatting by IF() or SWITCH() functions. Like the following DAX:

    measure =
    IF ( SELECTEDVALUE ( 'Table'[Column] ) > 0, "#00FF00", "#EE00CC" )

      This means I have to define a new measure in the cube itself and pull it to the Power BI, that idea did hit me as well but I wanted to see if I can to it in the Power BI itself.
