As per docuementation (blow) Add conditional formatting we cant add conditional formatting with Matrix based visual, can someone please udpaet whats the alternative here.
Considerations and limitations
Conditional formatting isn't supported for the following visuals:
Table based visuals
Matrix based visuals
We recommend that you don’t use conditional formatting with series. Instead, you should allow customers to format each series individually, making it easy to visually distinguish between series. Most out-of-the-box visuals with series, share this approach.
I am tring to get custom color for each element (below), i works fine with categorical dataset but is there anyway to achieve same with Matrix data mapping
Thanks but can you please explain what does followig mean, or is there any documentation available for it
you should allow customers to format each series individually, making it easy to visually distinguish between series
Translation: they don't want to do it.
