Conditional formatting in a table

Hi how can you use conditional formatting to colour the cell where actual positive performance in green and negative performance in red for each indicator against the budget.

Hello @irushidm,

 

Could you please clarify you used Power BI Table visual or developed your own table custom visual?

Hi what i have shown above is something i did on MS word. With the power BI table/matrix visual i am unable to colour status of the actual performance which is depicted in the second row. If its lower than budget the background colour of the cell/font colour should be red and if its above budget background colour of the cell/font colour should be green. I want to be able present data in that format. Is this possible with Power BI? This is similar to the conditional formatting availble in Excel.

 

Thanks

As far as I know it's impossible unfortunately.

Power BI table and matrix visuals aren't custom ones. Could you please create a question here?
