Matrix - conditional formatting single row
Hello,
I have a matrix table with several columns. I only want to format a single column (or maybe two).
I have two values, "count (=Anzahl) and "%" - and I only want to format the "%" of a single "country column".
Any idea about that?
Here's a picture that maybe describes better what I want to achieve.
Many thanks in advance! 🙂
hi cn4422
How do you identify a single country column? What makes one a single country? Or do you mean only Deutschland is to be formatted? If so, create the measures that return the values just for that specific country and apply the conditional formatting to those measures. Example:
Anzahl - Deutschland = CALCULATE ( [Anzahl], KEEPFILTERS ( 'table'[Country] = "Deutschland" ) )

Exactly, I do have the country column 'lead'[Country] with all the countries in it.
The selection with the measure for country worked!
When I put "Rules" as format style it's fine. However, when I put "gradient" as format style, it's formatting all countries again...
Do you know why this would happen?
The measure returns blank for all other countries. So if you treat as zero then formatting will be applied to those blanks values if using gradient. Use dont format.
If you want to apply conditional formatting to a specific country in a matrix, here's how you can do it:
I created a measure to apply the conditional formatting. For example, if I want to format only the data for "Australia," the measure looks like this:
Australia % =IF(AND(ISINSCOPE('Global-Superstore'[Country]),MAX('Global-Superstore'[Country]) ="Australia"),[Discount %],0)After creating the measure, I applied it as the conditional formatting rule for the Discount column. This ensures that the formatting is only applied to the rows corresponding to "Australia."
I tested this approach with sample data, and it worked perfectly. You can adapt this logic for other countries by simply changing "Australia" to the desired country's name in the measure.
Let me know if you have any questions!
Thanks
Lavdeep SharmaLavdeepsharma Many thanks for your reply - I will also try out your approach! 🙂
Does hist work with format style "gradient" as well for you or just for "rules"?
