Hello,
Is there a way to add a legend for the icons I added under conditional formatting?
Thanks!
I've run into the same issue. I would like a key for my end-users to know what the icons mean. I solved this by making a simple DAX table with just two columns, an ID number and a Description. I then made a table visual with only the Description field and added conditional formatting to the Description field to reference the ID, set the icon value accordingly to that Description and voila!
@CharlotteB , I doubt that. You can use unichar and create custom icon conditional formatting and show legends in the table near to your visual
