Count based on Conditional Formating

Hi together

 

My target is to count cells based on the background color.
The background color is done via conditional formatting.

For the conditional formatting I have a measure:

 
SWITCH(
TRUE(),
[TGS Full PY [nom]]] > SELECTEDVALUE('MASTER MKT_Targets'[Target]),"#E7FFDE",
[TGS YTD [nom]]] > SELECTEDVALUE('MASTER MKT_Targets'[Target]),"#73B761",
[TGS YTD [nom]]] < SELECTEDVALUE('MASTER MKT_Targets'[Target]),"#EB9534"
)
 
So my Dashboard looks as follows:

Now I want to count the cells based on the background color.
I tried a few things but nothing worked for me.

 

Help is very appreciated and thanks in advance.

hi @eierkopf 

what filter context do you have for the screenshot?

they have to be reflected in the count measure. 

Hi @FreemanZ 

Sorry here a better overview of the dashboard:

The count should be recounted everytime a filter changes.

Thank you.
