Hello, sorry if this is a silly question, but I am having an issue where when I add a column to a table that has earlier conditional formatting it removes that earlier conditional formatting, is there any way to make this conditional formatting stay when the third column is empty?
Example:
Hi, @Asuna
Power BI may recalculate the format of the table when adding new columns.
Before adding a new column, you can use the bookmark feature to save the status of the current report page, including conditional formatting. Avoid losing conditional formatting after adding a new column. If conditional formatting is lost, you can restore the previous state with a bookmark.
You can try using a calculated column to make sure it doesn't affect the conditional formatting you already have. If the conditional formatting is set based on the results of the calculation, then the calculation should be stable.
Alternatively, you can use DAX expressions to specify formatting rules when setting up conditional formatting, so that even if the table structure changes, the conditional formatting will remain unchanged as long as the DAX is valid.
You can use matrice visual, which only need to add a conditional formatting

@v-yohua-msft I am having a similar problem, but I am already using a calculated column to set the conditional formatting for cell color. I also am using the Web URL conditional formatting in the Cell Elements formatting option, and that formatting disappears when the new column has a blank value for that row.
Additionally, when I remove the new column, the conditional formatting reappears.
