How to show Filter symbol differently when the filters are applied on the page

As a user, I want them to view the filter symbol in a different way when the filter is applied.

 

Currently the filter icon looks like this when filters are applied :

Hi @pupadhya , one of the ways is to create a measure and use it for the background of your circle:

circle color = IF( ISFILTERED ( 'Date'[Year] ) || ISFILTERED ( 'Date'[Month-Year] ), "blue", "white")

If I take away the border, the circle won't be visible in case nothing is filtered.

@ERD , Thank you for the solution, I tried the same, but the DAX should be dynamic, no matter what I filter on the page, it should pop up the circle, meanwhile with the above DAX I can only see text saying blue or white, I want circle instead. Thanks

You need to check if tables used on the page are filtered: https://dax.guide/isfiltered/.

Then you apply the resulting color on the circle's background:
